Alamo Stone Marketing Plan




5.2 Price Rationale
   The reason why these offerings are free is bec ause we want to grow to a certain amount of
   members before we began to charge for theses events and materials.
   We want to build trust upfront bec ause churches generally have a bad reputation when it comes
   with money issues. This is well worth the free pricing as the budget permits it.
   When it gets to the point where the cost is to much for the church to handle we will figure out a
   pricing strategy.
