How Brands Grow : A summary of Byron Sharp's book on what marketers don't knowAmie Weller
Byron Sharp is a marketing professor who challenges traditional marketing theories in his book "How Brands Grow". Through rigorous scientific analysis, he developed three new marketing laws and simplified brand growth down to seven rules. The most important thing for growing a brand is availability - making the brand mentally and physically available to consumers when they are shopping.

Brand X is a new line of healthy and delicious functional foods - for
babies 6 to 12 months of age - that is the best the world has to offer.
Mothers who buy this line are early adopters. They are discerning,
world-aware consumers, who lead busy lives and who think Brand X
products are the only acceptable alternative to home-made food.
In addition to their organic certification and convenient form factor,
Brand X products afford babies superior nutritional value and a
variety of flavors and textures -- drawn from other cultures -- that will
broaden their palates as they grow. Brand X mothers like to extend
their socially-conscious lifestyle to the products they purchase. For
them, Brand X does good by donating a portion of profits to support
healthy nutrition for children.

25. The 4 Cs of Pricing
• Cost
• Understand your cost, then set pricing to achieve gross margin in the 30-40%
range
•Consumer
• Strengthen marketing and sales capabilities to find consumers that will pay
the price you need to make it, as a small scale food producer
• Maximize profit, based on your understanding of consumer price elasticity of
demand
• Leverage direct-to-consumer options (eCommerce, farmers’markets)
•Competition
• Don’t compete with larger scale producers on price
• Understand the pricing environment and motivation of retailers who carry
your product
•Capacity
• Capacity constraints and additions will create “pockets of profitability”for
you at various stages of growth”–understand them and adjust your pricing
accordingly

•
Appropriate Pricing Strategy will be a function of:
• Cost you need to cover
• Consumer Demand
• Competitive Products
• Capacity that you want to profitably utilize
• If your product has some unique and valued
characteristics, it may give you more pricing latitude
than you realize
• Set a price that gives you the best chance to be
profitable at your current stage of development
• Look for the channels that allow you to keep more of
your pricing, and avoid those where you will get
squeezed due to retailers’need to compete on price
