MAIN IDEA
The tastes and preferences of American middle-market consumers (those earning $50,000 and above annually) are changing and evolving. More and more, they are starting to be willing to trade up
in some areas – to pay a premium price for products and services that provide a greater level of quality than typical mass market offerings. As a result, a new sweet spot
is emerging in the marketplace which is called New-Luxury
. It is estimated around $400 billion in new-luxury goods were sold in the US in 2003 and this level of sales will continue to grow at about 15-percent per year to reach $1 trillion by the end of this decade.
Conventional business wisdom has always stated: The higher the price, the lower the volume
. Therefore, companies traditionally decided whether they would chase the luxury market with very highly priced offerings or target the mass market with more modest pricing and features to match. New-luxury products make that trade-off obsolete. New-luxury products and services sell at comparatively high volumes, despite their relatively high price levels. And therefore, companies at the forefront of selling new-luxury goods can achieve a high rate of profitability and growth which is beyond the reach of conventional competitors.
