Penetration Pricing
A strategy where prices are initially set low to attract customers and increase market share. Once a customer base is established, prices are gradually increased. Commonly used when entering a competitive market.
Premium Pricing
Involves setting the price of a product higher than the competitors to encourage favorable perceptions among buyers, based on the high price indicating superior quality. Best used for products with a unique selling proposition.
Economy Pricing
A no-frills low-price strategy where costs are kept to a minimum and the savings are passed on to customers. Ideal for commodity products with minimal differentiation.
Price Skimming
Setting an initially high price for a new or innovative product, then lowering the price over time as the novelty wears off or competition increases. Suitable for products with short-term uniqueness.
Dynamic Pricing
Adjusting prices continually based on algorithms that take into account competitor pricing, supply and demand, and other external factors. Useful for online retailers with the ability to change prices in real-time.
Psychological Pricing
A pricing strategy that takes advantage of customer psychology, e.g., setting a price at 20.00 to make the product appear cheaper. Often used for consumer goods.
Bundle Pricing
Combining several products for sale as a single package for a lower price than they would cost individually. Encourages the sale of more items and increases customer perceived value.
Loss Leader Pricing
Pricing products low enough to take a loss on specific items with the intention of attracting customers to make additional purchases of profitable goods. Used to increase store traffic.
Freemium Pricing
Offering a basic product or service for free, while charging a premium for advanced features or functionality. Common in digital goods and online services.
Geographical Pricing
Varying a product's price in different geographical locations to reflect shipping costs, local market conditions, and regional market strategies. Suitable for brands with a global presence.
