Day 82 A recent study of Dura-Socks customers suggests that our company is wasting the money it spends on its patented Endure manufacturing process

The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of marketing at Dura-Socks, Inc.

“A recent study of Dura-Socks customers suggests that our company is wasting the money it spends on its patented Endure manufacturing process, which ensures that our socks are strong enough to last for two years. We have always advertised our use of the Endure process, but the new study shows that despite the socks' durability, our customers, on average, actually purchase new Dura-Socks every three months. Furthermore, customers surveyed in our largest market— northeastern United States cities— say that they most value Dura-Socks' stylish appearance and availability in many colors. These findings suggest that we can increase our profits by discontinuing use of the Endure manufacturing process.”
