Furthermore, by having the entry-level cameras relatively low-cost this will potentially lead to mass production, which was our intended goal for these cameras. These cameras were envisioned where any average customer could purchase it comfortably to use on a daily basis. With that being said, we figured that many other companies would attempt to tackle the same price adjustment strategy that we were operating with. We reckoned that many companies were attempting to raise their prices for entry-level cameras, having said that we altered by maintaining a fairly lower price to raise profits. Unfortunately, we realize that this isn’t working out for our company, and decided to modify the prices, however we preformed this adjustment a bit to late for any major outcomes.
