Doone.. I don't think you've every said anything to me that warrants an apology. I certainly didn't see anything posted as such. Besides that, if you were to disagree with me and come out strongly about it, I'd either see your point or counter it with my belief. Nothing wrong with it either way. But thanks for the thought.
Appreciate the info you provided nonetheless, so thanks for that.
I'd say we are more or less on the same page. A discount indeed can be temp' or perm' and I would think that "new pricing structures" is, in essence, a perm' disc from the original price, but neatly wrapped in a new structure for businesses seeking, perhaps, a volume disc. Hence, for statewide coverage, my read on such is that, for instance, if NY has 14 area codes with varied prices and a client wants in-state coverage for all/several of them and that total is more than a few hundred bucks total, they could qualify for, basically, what would amount to a bulk discount.
So whether temp/perm/new pricing structure/etc, it boils down to discounting/reducing prices to accomodate potential clients so that they become paying clients. I'm all for whatever method makes it easier/cheaper so that clients sign on.
