From the Editor: Raise Your Rates
LIKE EVERY other business, an in-plant has to remain viable, and that means raising rates from time to time to compensate for cost increases. Yet many in-plants are reluctant to tamper with established prices. After all, aren’t you there to save money for your organization? Don’t your rates have to be low? Won’t customers revolt if you raise them?
