3 FORCES OF PRICING
1)PRICE CONVEYS IMAGE
2)COMPETITION & PRICING
3)FOCUS ON VALUE
1) PRICE CONVEYS IMAGE
-CUSTOMERS LOOK AT PRICES TO DETERMINE WHAT TYPE OF BUSINESS THEY
ARE DEALING WITH.
-HIGH PRICES CONVEY:
1) QUALITY
2) PRESTIGE
3) UNIQUENESS
-ONLY 15-35% OF CUSTOMERS CONSIDER PRICE TO BE THE CHIEF CRITERION
WHEN SELECTING A PRODUCT/SERVICE.
-CUSTOMERS ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR:
1) EXTRA VALUE
2) CONVENIENCE
3) SERVICE
4) QUALITY
A WELL CHOSEN PRICE SHOULD DO 3 THINGS
1) ACHIEVE THE FINANCIAL GOALS OF THE COMPANY.
-WILL THE PRICE LEAD TO PROFITABILITY?
2) FIT THE REALITIES OF THE MARKETPLACE.
-WILL CUSTOMERS BY AT THAT PRICE?
3) SUPPORT A PRODUCT’S POSITIONING.
-IS THE PRICE CONSISTENT WITH THE BRAND?
2) COMPETITION & PRICING
TWO FACTORS WHEN TAKING COMPETITION INTO
ACCOUNT FOR A PRICING STRATEGY
1) THE LOCATION OF THE COMPETITORS.
2) THE NATURE OF THE COMPETING GOODS & SERVICES.
3) FOCUS ON VALUE
-THE “RIGHT” PRICE FOR A PRODUCT/SERVICE DEPENDS
ON 1 FACTOR:
-THE VALUE THAT IT PROVIDES FOR A CUSTOMER.
-2 ASPECTS OF VALUE:
1) OBJECTIVE VALUE
-THE PRICE CUSTOMERS WOULD BE WILLING TO
PAY IF THEY UNERSTOOD PERFECTLY THE
BENEFITS THAT A PRODUCT/SERVICE DELIVERS
FOR THEM.
2) PERCEIVED VALUE
-THE CUSTOMER’S OPINION OF A
PRODUCT’S/SERVICE’S VALUE TO HIM/HER
COMPARED TO PRICE.
INTRODUCING A NEW PRODUCT
THE 3 OBJECTIVES THAT SHOULD BE SATISFIED
WHEN PRICING ANY NEW PRODUCT.
1)GETTING THE PRODUCT ACCEPTED
2)2) MAINTAINING MARKET SHARE AS COMPETITION GROWS
3)3) EARNING A PROFIT
1) GETTING THE PRODUCT ACCEPTED
-NO MATTER HOW UNUSUAL A PRODUCT IS, ITS PRICE MUST BE
ACCEPTABLE TO A COMPANY’S POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS.
-THE ACCEPTABLE PRICE RANGE FOR A NEW PRODUCT DEPENDS
ON THE PRODUCT’S POSITION.
1) REVOLUTIONARY PRODUCTS
-PRODUCTS ARE SO NEW & UNIQUE THAT THEY
TRANSFORM EXISTING MARKETS. THE PRICE RANGE
TENDS TO BE WIDE.
2) EVOLUTIONARY PRODUCTS
-PRODUCTS THAT OFFER UPGRADES & ENHANCEMENTS TO
EXISTING PRODUCTS. PRICE RANGE IS NOT AS WIDE AS
REVOLUTIONARY PRODUCTS.
3) ME-TOO PRODUCTS
-PRODUCTS THAT OFFER THE SAME BASIC FEATURES AS
EXISTING PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET. PRICE RANGE IS
NARROW.
