Right, you're only considering what the middle men are asking for
@honkhonk $5000 in a week? jesus
the distributor is himself a customer of the supplier upstream
I wanna compare last week of march 2019, Hollywood VS Streaming
to last week of march 2020 hollywood and streaming
I know what it'll look like but I'm curious
the key point to realize is the from the customers perspective, they see the entire supply chain as a single entity. The reality is that their interface has VERY different incentives than each entity along that supply chain

in modern companies, there is a similar interface between those that provide the product AND those in the marketing departments that dictate 'what will sell', supposedly based on what they feel the market wants
isn't shoe a crazy leftist now
thats what i heard
no?
She just stans bernie over biden
i heard she supports bernie
She's hardly crazy
give her a watch
the fuck do you think a leftist is
also voting Democrat is already insane
socialism is just beyond that
like damn
I will say that during my run with Dollar General, corporate dictated every shelf to the nanometer, and on average, their decisions were almost prophetic
shoe is kinda cringe ngl
Companies either had their product move off the shelf at exactly the rate we stocked at or else had to clearly overspend by a huge margin in product placement auctions
additionally, it's the echo chambers on both sides that prevent suppliers from being able to realize that it isn't what THEY want which should drive their efforts, but the 'needs/want's of their Customers. in a similar fashion to the left, many in open source focus on products THEY think are useful while dismissing the wants of those willing to pay for somethig
yeah, i think most corporations are run that way @Hexidecimark
Probably, but I don't want to say for sure off my own anecdote
it has advantages in some areas, BUT it's deteremential in others, especially when it comes to realizing that a demand trend that was there yesterday, is now gone
Which is why the hours were so tight
they had to manage failure overheads
on the supply side, if your device isn't put together just right, it doesn't function. but anticipation of demand is FAR less a science and more of an art
well, if you think along the tokenization idea, ANY inventory and overhead is a 'blockage' of the path at which incentive from consumer willing to pay flows to the supplier, willing to provide
it commits resources to a demand that you aren't quite sure will still exist by the time a unit is ready for sale
more than that, it commits resource to a demand that was ANTICIPATED by your distributorm which might not even BE a real demand
Indias about to get it STINKING
the notion that 'incentive' can be thought of as a 'token' exchanged between a SINGLE set of consumers and suppliers with COMMON stake, really illuminates why the current economic system is suffering
implying it doesnt already overwhelmingly stink of shit
That's also where stability comes in
exactly
More stable environments allow more reliable predictions allow more complicated operations with more middlemen
