Detailed explanation-1: -Pricing should be in line with the value of the benefits that your business provides for its customers, while also bearing in mind the prices your competitors charge. To maximise your profitability, find out: what benefits your customers gain from using your product or service.
Detailed explanation-2: -Historically speaking, quality has been top of mind for consumers and was more important than price. In 2021, we conducted consumer research to temperature check market behavior, and consumers ranked the quality/value of a product (51%) higher than the price (30%).
Detailed explanation-3: -Costs – a business cannot ignore the cost of production or buying a product when it comes to setting a selling price. In the long-term, a business will fail if it sells for less than cost, or if its gross profit margin is too low to cover the fixed costs of the business.
