Rockin’ Robin!

Rockin’ Robin!

In most businesses, increases in cost are immediately passed on to the consumer. That is no different in the newspaper industry. In order for businesses to survive, we must pass on costs incurred with weekly productions or we simply wouldn’t survive. I knew in 2020 we needed to make a substantial change as our costs continued to increase; but, I was reluctant to do so. I waited. And, when we finally made the increase, we faced yet another increase. In the last four years, we have seen a 34% increase in postage alone. This 34% doesn’t include the increases that came from utilities, payroll, print costs, etc. It was simply postage rate increases. The 34% doesn’t include the 7.5% postage increase that was just added in January. 02/13/2024 11:00 PM
