Group 1: Recruitment Events - The autumn recruitment season is characterized by a high volume of corporate presentations, with students attending to gather information and opportunities [7][32]. - LVMH's presentation at Fudan University was noted for its lack of tangible recruitment information and excessive focus on brand promotion, leading to student dissatisfaction [12][20]. - In contrast, other companies like Miniso and L'Oréal provided more engaging and informative sessions, including direct interactions with HR and clear details on job opportunities [19][21]. Group 2: Student Expectations - Students expect recruitment events to provide concrete information about job roles, salary, and career development paths, rather than vague statements about passion and beauty [38][42]. - The presence of promotional gifts at recruitment events has become a common expectation, with students often attending for the giveaways as much as for job opportunities [21][22]. - The article notes that students are increasingly viewing recruitment events as opportunities to "stock up" on promotional items, leading to a perception of these events as "shopping trips" rather than serious recruitment opportunities [22][30].

Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the phenomenon where higher prices can lead to increased sales, challenging the common belief that lower prices always drive better sales performance. It highlights the concepts of Veblen Effect and Giffen Goods to explain consumer behavior regarding pricing and demand. Group 1: Veblen Effect and Luxury Goods - The Veblen Effect suggests that consumers may demand more of a product as its price increases, particularly for luxury goods, as higher prices can enhance perceived value and status [11][14][20]. - Examples include a warming underwear factory in China that raised prices from 50 yuan to 140-150 yuan, resulting in a 30% increase in orders [9]. - Similarly, luxury brands like Chanel and Van Cleef & Arpels have successfully increased prices while boosting sales, demonstrating the effectiveness of this pricing strategy [12][13]. Group 2: Giffen Goods and Consumer Behavior - Giffen Goods illustrate a scenario where demand for a product increases as its price rises, contrary to typical economic expectations. This phenomenon was observed during the Irish Potato Famine [22][24]. - The article explains that when essential goods like potatoes become more expensive, consumers may buy more of them due to the lack of affordable alternatives, showcasing a unique consumer psychology [28][36]. Group 3: Price Elasticity and Market Dynamics - The concept of price elasticity is crucial in understanding consumer behavior. Products with high elasticity see demand fluctuate significantly with price changes, while necessities tend to have inelastic demand [56][57]. - The article warns that relying solely on a low-price strategy can lead to detrimental price wars, ultimately harming the industry as a whole [59]. Group 4: Consumer Preferences and Pricing Strategies - The article argues that consumers do not always prefer cheaper options; instead, they may seek products that offer perceived value, even at higher prices [44][45]. - It emphasizes the importance of aligning product pricing with its perceived value and utility, suggesting that higher prices can sometimes lead to better sales if consumers recognize the product's worth [60].
lululemon何以被创始人炮轰“五宗罪”

Core Viewpoint - Chip Wilson, the founder of lululemon, expresses deep concerns about the company's declining growth and innovation, attributing it to a series of systemic failures within the management and board of directors [9][11][21]. Group 1: Systematic Issues Identified - The decline of lululemon is seen as a result of a "systematic dismantling" of its core values and expertise, leading to a loss of innovation and brand identity [13][11]. - The management, primarily composed of financial and operational experts, prioritizes short-term performance over long-term strategic vision, resulting in a lack of passion for product innovation [15][11]. - The brand has experienced a "GAP-ification," where creative leadership has been replaced by business-oriented management, stifling innovation and leading to a predictable and mediocre product line [15][11]. Group 2: Consequences of Talent Loss - The loss of top talent has created a domino effect, where the company appears to perform well in the short term but loses critical internal knowledge and expertise, which often flows to competitors [15][11]. - The pursuit of growth has led to significant financial missteps, such as the costly investment in the Mirror brand, which resulted in a substantial loss of market value [15][11]. - The dilution of lululemon's premium brand positioning has occurred due to cost-cutting measures that compromised product quality [15][11]. Group 3: Cultural and Leadership Challenges - A cultural erosion has taken place as new executives from traditional companies focus on short-term gains, failing to address underlying issues and leading to repeated unsuccessful attempts to find a suitable CEO [16][11]. - The board's preference for financially-driven leadership has resulted in a disconnect from the brand's creative roots, leading to a loss of its unique identity and appeal [17][11].

Group 5: Path to Revival - Chip Wilson outlines five critical steps for lululemon's revival, emphasizing the need to refocus on product innovation, reintroduce entrepreneurial spirit into the board, and prioritize customer experience over Wall Street's demands [28][29]. - The company must rediscover its brand essence and ensure that its leadership understands and fosters creativity, rather than merely focusing on financial metrics [29][28].
