If you’ve been keeping an eye on the news, you’ve probably seen it: wholesale prices are climbing at the fastest pace in years. A MarketWatch article reports rising costs for appliances, electronics, and metals thanks to tariffs and supply chain pressures.
Here’s the catch: while your suppliers raise prices, many retailers haven’t yet passed those costs to customers. That leaves businesses like yours with a tough choice:
- Raise prices and risk losing sales.
- Hold prices steady and watch margins shrink.
Neither option feels good. So, how do you protect your profitability without pushing away your customers?
The Hidden Cost of Doing Nothing
Absorbing rising costs might buy you time, but it also eats into your margins fast. Before long, you’re working just as hard but making less money on every sale. On the other hand, raising prices across the board without a clear strategy can frustrate customers and prompt them to seek cheaper alternatives.
What you really need is a way to adapt quickly, stay competitive, and still hit your profit goals.
