“PRICE IS SOMETHING WHICH CUSTOMER IS READY TO PAY FOR YOUR
PRODUCT”
Pricing is an important strategic issue because it is related to
product positioning. Furthermore, pricing affects other marketing mix elements
such as product features, channel decisions, and promotion.
While there is no single recipe to determine pricing, the following is
a general sequence of steps that are followed for developing the pricing of
product:
1. Develop marketing strategy - perform marketing
analysis, segmentation, targeting, and positioning. Methods Adopted: Box Plot
Method: i.e. Market Segmentation
2. Make marketing mix decisions - define the product, distribution, and
promotional tactics.
