Discount Dependency Death

@Under Armour you're discounting heavily to move inventory. Your brand equity is bleeding with every percent off. This is how great brands become mediocre.

I've seen this death spiral. When I cut discount dependency from 47% to 19%. Revenue grew 31%. Profit grew 47%. The secret? We rebuilt value propositions. Not pricing.

Your sales team pushes discounts to hit quarterly numbers. Your brand team warns about erosion. The finance team counts margin loss. Everyone optimizes for their metric. Nobody optimizes for brand health. The bill comes due later.

The Margin Recovery Framework:

1. Measure discount dependency. If you can't stop without crashing, you're addicted.
2. Build value-based segmentation. Premium customers pay premium prices.
3. Tiered offers. Loyalty beats blanket discounts.
4. Scarcity over discount. Limited inventory beats percentage off.
5. LTV-informed pricing. Some customers acquire at Loss. Lifetime math wins.

We're building pricing power together. Not through theory. Through practice that's scaled to $1.4B revenue. You and I protecting the brand.

What percentage of your revenue is discount-dependent? Be honest.
