The first Bic pen is 19 cents. After half a century, when you adjust inflation, its price is about the same. Keeping the price low has become the default pen for millions of people. Bic's marketing strategy is not just to implement expensive celebrity ad campaigns, but simply to keep it low - it's not an easy task. For perennial sellers, I did dozens of interviews with people who are most important in achieving longevity in their creative work. Most of these interviews were done by e-mail, so I was able to turn them into a tradeoff to promote a book on the week of release - the lessons I learned while writing about Growth Hacker Marketing . That is exactly what I did - if you send an e - mail to the address listed in the book, you can read many interviews and case studies that I have done as a book study.

Summary: The Consumer Price Index (CPI) was stable in October. A slight increase in food inflation was offset by a fall in fuel prices. However, as the core price pressure increases, the inflation rate may recover in the coming months. In this respect, there is no room to update monetary policy. For the future inflation rate data, we predict that the CPI inflation rate will maintain 3% for 3 consecutive months (data will be announced on 13th November). At the same time, we expect that the WPI inflation rate in October (data on Tuesday, 14th) will drop to only 5%. Regarding the CPI indicator, recent rise in vegetable prices is unstable. According to the latest data, vegetable prices rose in October (Figure 3).
