Dear LinkedIn connections 😊 getting rid of stuff and found this from my days at Dow Chemical Latín América . My first job from 1969-1979 (10 of my best years ) and lived in 🇧🇷, Coral Gables, 🇲🇽, 🇬🇹 and Houston): 1. Good and services should never priced on their value to the customer, not their value to us. 2. The cost of our products is not related to market price ... no formula exists for pricing of our products which is based on cash cost on invested capital. 3. Once price is determined, our costs or alternatives values do determine the acceptability of a business opportunity. 4. In the short term the value of a given opportunity must exceed that obtainable from alternatives opportunities. 5. In the long term an acceptable business must provide sufficient profits to provide the stockholders a good return on their investment and provide funds for growth. Comments are welcome ...
