Pricing Strategies

 

PRICING STRATEGIES:

Premium Pricing Strategy

Businesses use a premium pricing strategy when they are announcing a new product that has distinctive competitive advantages over similar kind of products. A premium-priced product is generally priced higher than its competitors.

Penetration Pricing Strategy

Marketers use penetration pricing to achieve market share by offering their goods and services at prices lesser than those of the competitors. Marketers need to get their products available in the market so that the products increase consumer awareness and persuade buyers to try the products.

Economy Pricing Strategy

An economy pricing strategy sets prices at the bare minimum to make a minor profit. Companies curtail their marketing and promotional costs. The key to a cost-effective economy pricing program is to sell a high volume of products and services at lower price. Large companies, such as Walmart, Dmart are capable of taking advantage of this low-price strategy, but small businesses will have trouble selling enough products at low prices to stay in business.

Price Skimming Strategy

Price Skimming is a strategy of setting high prices by introducing new products while the market has few competitors. This method lets businesses to maximize profits before competitors arrive in the market, then drop the prices.

Psychological Pricing Strategy

Marketers use psychological pricing that boosts consumer to purchase products built on emotions rather than on common-sense logic. The example is when a company charges its product at Rs.199 instead of Rs. 200. Even though the difference is small, consumers perceive 199 as being substantially cheaper. This is known as the "left-digit effect."

Bundle Pricing Strategy

Businesses use bundle pricing to trade multiple products together for a lower price than if they were purchased separately. This is an effective strategy to move unsold items that are simply taking up the space.

Value Analysis and Value Engineering

Value Analysis is a standardized, multi-skilled team approach which aims at ascertaining the lowest cost way and guaranteeing the highest worth to complete the functions of a product, process or service. Value analysis means to evaluate product functions and value-to-cost ratios, and to find opportunities for costs reduction. Value Engineering denotes to the design stage. This methodology is commonly used for new products, therefore the same principles and techniques to pre-manufacturing stages such as concept development, design and prototyping are applied. Image source: Learnpick.in To sum up, VA / VE is a systematic and systemic method to increase the value of an item, which can be a product, system, process, procedure, plan, machine, equipment , tool, service or working method. Function analysis is measure of VA as its purpose is to recognize product functions compared to cost and price; design and construction assessment is done through VE with the goal of excluding elements whic...

scaling techniques

  A Classification of Scaling techniques   SCALING TECHNIQUES ARE CLASSIFIED INTO TWO   Comparative   Non-comparative     Comparative scales  involve  the direct comparison of stimulus objects. Comparative scale data must be interpreted in relative terms and have only ordinal or rank order properties.   Under comparative they are four kind of techniques   1.paired  comparison   2.rank order   3.constant sum   4.q sort  and other  procedures     In non-comparative scales, each object is scaled independently of the others in the stimulus set. The resulting data are generally assumed to be interval or ratio scaled.   Under non comparative scales they are two kinds   1.continuous rating scales   2.itemized rating scales   Again,  under itemized scaling they are three kind   1.likert   2.semantic differential   3.stapel     Paired comparison ...

Research Design

    Research design:  classification The research the design may be classified into exploratory, descriptive and conclusive (cause and effect) Exploratory: Exploratory research design is commonly known as unstructured informal research.  It is done to know more information when the researcher doesn’t know much about the problem.  It is  qualitative. Result: tentative   Conclusive: Conclusive research design is a structured design and formal. Research is structured and formal.  Sample size is high. Data analysis is quantitative. Result: conclusive Explorative research is classified into two 1.       Direct 2.       Indirect   Direct they are two kinds 1.      Focus group interviews: non-structured and natural manner. Example: group discussion 2.     Depth interviews: non-structured Example: personal i...
