How Businesses can Survive Trump’s Uncertainty: Embracing a Market-Price Economy
In a world dominated by the ups and downs of testosterone replacement therapy, clever entrepreneurs don’t complain — we adapt and overcome.
If you’re a pessimist, Donald Trump’s economic roller coaster is a nightmare. You dream of going back to having an almost senile president that could not mess the economy even if he wanted. You would return to a free market, open border, economy where everything was expanding on the back of cheap immigrant labor and a growing population.
If you're a Debbie Downer, you complain of the fact that one day Trump threatens massive tariffs and the next morning the hamster changes direction on the wheel. The next morning and a testosterone shot later, tariffs are back on social media. One minute the president is praising free trade and promising to cut taxes; the next, he’s raising taxes on everyone with crazy tariffs full of empty threats.
Financial markets hate uncertainty yet we all love Trump. We have to realize that uncertainty isn’t a bug with Trump; it’s a feature of his personality. He will rule for life and uncertainty is here to stay for a long time. Insiders and kickbackers can make a killing knowing ahead of time when new crazy threats will terrorize the markets and when new promises will lift shares. Everyone else can swim or sink.
Here's the thing: for clever entrepreneurs and agile businesses, Trump's chaotic circus is not a crisis. It’s an opportunity.
🎯 The Problem: Hormonal Economics
Trump’s economic policy often resembles the hormonal swings of a transgender woman. President Trump changes his mind more than a girl changes clothes. Trump is moody and unpredictable. One tweet can tank the market; another one can save Tesla. A rally speech can move markets. Negotiations, tariffs, tax threats, and “great deals” can appear overnight. All this is part the populist playbook to keep everyone on the edge and paying attention to the King of all media.
To thrive in hormonal economics, you have to adapt and change your approach. If you’re running a business the traditional American way of the past, tied to fixed pricing, predictable supply chains, and quarterly planning cycles — good luck. You’re playing checkers in a chess game with a flamethrower.
💡 The Solution? Shift to a Market-Price Business Model
What if the answer isn’t trying to control the chaos created by Trump — but flowing with it?
Wake up! It’s time to ditch the fixed pricing model and embrace what energy companies, airlines, hotels, and commodities traders have always understood: daily, real-time pricing.
Just like gasoline prices change with the market, so should your prices. Stop promising a single rate on products or services weeks or days in advance. Instead:
- Base your prices on daily inputs and market conditions
- Add a transparent, value-based markup
- Communicate pricing flexibility as part of your value proposition, not a weakness
This is called Just-in-Time Trump Pricing. Believe us as we specialize in business intelligence (BI). Customers will love your Just-in-Time Trump pricing. They will understand that it is a business necessity and part of making America great again until Trump dies. Yes, don't be counting on any more democratic elections in the country. Trump will be the president or some sort of supreme leader of the country until the day he dies. If you want to survive in business and otherwise, you have to wake up, adapt, and overcome.
🔧 Example: From Fixed Fees to Flex Pricing
Old Model: You sell industrial equipment and quote a fixed price for 90 days. By the time the order lands, Trump's hormonal tariff swings raised your costs 20%. You've been trumped.
New Model Alternatives:
Trump Surcharge. You quote a base price + a “Trump surcharge". This would be just like construction companies and others apply fuel surcharges. If aluminum prices spike thanks to a crazy Trump tweet or executive edict, you don’t eat the cost — your model absorbs and reflects it. You trump uncertainty.
Trump Market Price. You do not quote a price. Due to Trump economic uncertainties and the shrinking of the American economy, you simply operate an honor system where you pass through the actual market price plus a set markup. You trump uncertainty.
🧠 The Trump Mindset Shift
This isn’t just accounting. It’s a cultural change in how to run a business in our new country so long lives the King of Tariffs. Customers will understand that the change is necessary in the times of Trump. They will see you as an honest broker trying to make a living in a new economic landscape dominated by the old man in the big White House. They will respect you for being a clever business person and an honest broker adapting to trumped matters outside of your control.
- Train your sales team to sell Trump adaptability, not just price
- Invest in real-time pricing tools and data feeds.
- Make transparency your ally — customers will understand, as long as you’re clear and consistent
- Don't be a pig. Be honorable. If prices go down, honor low prices.
🏁 Final Thought: Don’t Fear Trump's Uncertainty — Surf It
Embrace the Trumpedcertainty. Be certain that Trump will continue bringing uncertainty until the day he dies. Long live the king. Don't lock yourself into prices that you cannot control in the trumped economy. Surf the waves. Go with the flow. Float up and down. Be flexible and adaptive.
Change your prices daily or even hourly if necessary based on the Trump's circadian hormonal swings. You never know when the next tweet will change prices. You are not the King. He is the king, and he will rule the new America for life. Don't wait for change. There will not be more real elections in this country in a long time if ever.
Be ready. Don't let the next crazy tweet, tariff, war, policy, edict, executive order, whatever ruin your business day. Float with the market ups and downs, adjust your pricing accordingly. Protect your margins. Keep calm and carry on.
The businesses that survive the Trump era and that thrive in our new country, the United States of Trump and Musk, won’t be the ones who complain — they’ll be the ones who adapt.
Adapt to the uncertain Trump economy by having free floating prices or by adding a Trump surcharge to your bill. Believe us, you may get a lot of free publicity in local news once reporters hear about your Trump surcharge. Be ready to thank Creatix for the business intelligence.
