It is very much possible and should be done by focusing on consumer demand and product which offers the service to consumer/customer. If product fulfills customer centric/ basic requirements, strategy should be designed in such a way to cater vast number of customer at low cost by providing the best services to create a competition so that competitor too would require to lower their service charges. And as service still costs little amount of money instead of serving free of cost its anytime a win win situation.

Depending on the size of the organisation,  it is possible to provide a customer focused product at a low cost (so long this aligns with the strategic direction of the organisation) by implementing following techiques:

1. Apply lean six sigma techinques / principles to optmise productivity 

2. Outsource non-value adding functions

3. invest in staff development and traning to empower staff and optimise their productivity / reduce errors 

4. Achieve a preffered suppliers type of deals / schemes where you can minimise cost of supply through repeat business rewards

5. Use synergy amongst functions to minimise redundancy of resources 

6. Analyse metadata about your customers to ensure that you constantly cater for their needs
