Pricing is one of the most critical elements of the marketing mix. It’s an evolving balancing act to ensure that you stay competitive while maximizing profit.

Price too high and you won’t generate the volume you need…price too low and you will leave money on the table.

Every business is different but establishing the optimum price for a product or service is critical to long term competitiveness and survival. After successfully pricing countless products and services we’ve found the following approach to be the most effective…

1. Define business goals and positioning – maybe your goal is achieve a dominant market share or maybe it’s to be the cheapest option on the market?
2. Calculate costs – your costs will set the price floor for your product
3. Review the competition – your customers will be making comparisons
4. Review pricing options – there are tons available so decide what’s right for you
5. Test demand – you don’t have to rely on your gut, there are ways to research pricing options before you go to market
6. Execute – select roll-out the best option
7. Review – pricing is dynamic and will change over time

It’s a complicated topic but essential to get right if you want to grow your business.
