Computer companies taking direct route
Article Abstract:
Several personal computer (PC) manufacturers are beginning to favor the use of direct marketing over other methods. CompuAdd Computer Corp will close its retail operation by the end of 1993, discharging 1/2 of its 1,170 workforce. CompuAdd will instead resort exclusively to mail order catalogs and telephone orders. The change of marketing methods was prompted by the tight pricing competition initiated by Compaq Computer Corp last June 1992.
