Mulberry trees abound in our yard. - front and side of the house. This was supposed to be a fodder for rabbits. I read many posts in a social media and a 3 feet plantita cost about P600.00 even at a e commerce platform. The roadside vendors price this at P450.00.
What makes this tree so expensive? I guess because of the the benefits you derive from the tree
This blogger came across a herbal product that did very very well in just five years, growing from mere P500,000 sales in first year to over P140,000,000 this year. It is a berry juice with its main component imported from abroad. It commands a hefty price, does not use mlm, and uses a different marketing strategy. Very briefly, it sells more because there is more benefit but because there is more hype.
On the other hand, there is this local juice that sells only 30% of its production locally and the rest exported to Japan and Korea (another case of the prophets not known in its own country).It only managed to grow to 1/7 of the size of the sales of the imported product.
The imported product faces great risk because it is imported and the foreign currency fluctuation does not favor imported goods. Furthermore, the shelf life is limited because the potency of their product is affected by the shelf life.
The indications are the same: cancer prevention, better over all health, more energy, for more potency as a male. They could be very well considered generic product but the difference lies in marketing.
So why pay more; patronize our own native products and give more jobs to Pilipinos if the product is cheaper and as effective
