Because I for one have no idea how much it costs and I&#8217;ve looked at the menu for a good ten minutes since recieving it through through my letterbox. I know how much an Original Cheese &amp; Tomato pizza costs and I know how much it would be to create my own pizza. I also know how much a Mighty Meaty pizza costs, just one item down below Mexican Hot, but I&#8217;ve no idea how much the Mexican Hot pizza and the other pizzas on there cost. Why? Because there&#8217;s no easily identifiable price for them. I&#8217;m hoping that I&#8217;m not going crazy and you&#8217;re just as confused as I am with this menu.</p><p>I find it strange that such a large and popular company would not go to every effort to make sure that I understand how much something costs before ordering it. It wouldn&#8217;t be hard to add the prices for each separate pizza and yet they&#8217;ve been omitted, creating a level of confusion that shouldn&#8217;t be there.</p><p>If a customer doesn&#8217;t know the price of something, it makes the customer lack confidence and that will reduce the chance of them calling up and finding out over the phone. It&#8217;s an unnecessary barrier and one which could potentially lose you a customer because such a customer may simply decide to either go with a rival company or decide against purchasing anything at all.</p><p>In order to capitalise on your market share, every effort should be made to make buying one of your products as easy as possible for the customer. If it&#8217;s not easy, your customers will get turned off and look elsewhere.</p><p>Do let me know if I&#8217;m wrong on this.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.theworkof.co.uk/2009/03/04/how-to-confuse-your-customers/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
