Bottom of the Pyramid, a Mirage
- Price performance
|
Lowering the price for BOP will eventually give the poor more savings.
|
- Innovation, hybrid
|
Rather than making the BOP a consumer, they should be producers of their own goods to survive
|
- Scale of operations
|
True that they have large market but cost is directly proportional to quality. In cutting cost, quality is directly affected
|
- Sustainable development
|
Argument on micro-financing which has no effect on client’s economy
|
- Identifying functionality
|
Rather than being consumer, one should create opportunity for the BOP like employment
|
- Process innovation
|
Being the voice of the BOP to the government to correct the problem
|
- Deskilling of work
|
Give a job that BOP will perform and give training
|
- Education of customer
|
Best way to eliminate poverty is upgrading skills and productivity of poor to help them create opportunity
|
- Design for infrastructure
|
Bottom of the Pyramid is a mere hyperbole
|
- Interfaces
|
N / A
|
- Distribution, accessing the customers
|
Government should give assurance that everyone has a job when private sectors reject them.
|
- BOP challenges
|
Challenger here is giving the responsibility to the government and other sectors of the society without so much in return
