Price and price promotion are core tools of Category Management and Shopper Marketing.
Pricing Strategy asks and solves:
- How important is price for our category to shoppers in each channel?
- How do shoppers guage value in our category?
- What are the price ceilings and floors, and optimal price points?
- How should we price ourselves relative to competitors?
Price Promotion asks and solves:
- Is price promotion worthwhile – what is the likely ROI?
- What should price promotion frequency and depth be based on shopper insights and behaviour in the category?
