market.
Product refers to any goods or services that
are produced to meet the consumers’ wants,
tastes and preferences.

conditions, competition,
customer perception, and
business goals.
6. Pricing Methods
3 Basic pricing methods:
Cost-based pricing- most businesses set their prices on the basis of how much went into
the cost of producing the product. All cost are added and divided by the number of units
produced (the markup as well)
•Cost-plus pricing-the simplest of all the pricing methods. All cost are added up and then
divided by the number of units produced. A certain percentage, commonly known as the
markup, which represents the desired return on the sale, is added to arrive at the selling
price
• Selling Price (P) = Cost per unit + Expected % of return
Break-even pricing-minimum price is determined at the level where total sales equal total
cost
The formula for BEP is – (Total fixed cost/Production unit volume) + Variable Cost
per unit

attracts customer which holds the idea that products
purchased are guaranteed to be of good quality and as
an assurance return is welcomed.
Flash sales-a flash sale is basically an offer that only lasts
for a limited time and it’s a great way to create a sense of
urgency for the customer to buy. Many retailers are now
adopting this strategy as a way to sell more products and
get rid of surplus stock.
10. Buy more, save more – This move entices the customer to purchase
more even those whose budget is limited only. A value for your
money seems hard to resist. The promotion attracts a repeat
purchase concept.
Product giveaways or branded gifts- Filipinos love to have samples
first before they actually buy the product. Giveaways must be
properly planned as this may backfire to the business, especially if the
giveaways are of poor quality. Customers might create the impression
attached to your product or service.

Cost-based pricing can be defined as a pricing method in which a certain percentage of the total cost is added to the cost of the product to determine its selling price. In other words, it refers to a pricing method in which the selling price is determined by adding a profit percentage to the cost of making the product.
The most important resource of any organization is its people. Oftentimes, a company’s reputation can be seen on the way their people behave. A company full of happy, courteous and loyal people is a very good indication that they are satisfied with the way they are treated and therefore a plus factor for the company’s reputation.
Develop the habit of standing back and looking at every visual element in the packaging of your product or service through the eyes of a critical prospect. Remember, people form their first impression about you within the 1st 30 seconds of seeing you or some element of your company.
Packaging is a silent hero in the marketing world. Packaging refers to the outside appearance of a product and how it is presented to the customers. The best packaging should be attractive enough and cost efficient for the customers. Packaging is highly functional. It is for protection, containment, information, utility of use and promotion.
When a company presents a product or service in a way that is different from the competitors, they are said to be “positioning” it. Positioning refers to a process used by marketers to create an image in the minds of a target market. Solid positioning will allow a single product to attract different customers for not the same reasons. For example, two people are interested in buying a phone; one wants a phone that is cheaper in price and fashionable while the other buyer is looking for a phone that is durable and has longer battery life and yet they buy the same exact phone.
