You're comparing apples and oranges.
Say Coca-Cola buys McDonald's Corporation and it makes a splash in the business community and restaurant blogs. Then the new joint company announces that all soft drinks are $0.10 from now on.
Traffic spikes 25%. Which of those two events was the cause?
- slg 9y agoThat is a false comparison because if you ask people the reason why they don't buy McDonald's more frequently very few of them will cite the cost of soft drinks. Many people will cite the overall cost of Whole Foods as a reason they don't shop there more frequently. Amazon's changes directly addressed the biggest complaint about Whole Foods. A better analogy might be if Coca-Cola found a way to magically drop the calorie total of McDonald's food without altering the taste.
