PRICE
PRICING STRATEGIES OF PANTALOON
Pricing is difficult and must reflect supply and demand relationship.
Pricing a product too high or too low could mean a loss of sales for the organisation.
Pricing should take into account the following factors: Fixed and variable costs. Competition. Company objectives. Proposed positioning
strategies. Target group and
willingness to pay.
TYPES OF PRICING STRATEGIES OF PANTALOON
An organisation can adopt a number of pricing strategies. The pricing strategies are based much on what objectives the company has set itself to achieve.
Penetration pricing: Where the PANTALOON sets a low price to increase sales and market share.
Skimming pricing: The PANTALOON sets an initial high price and then slowly lowers the price to make the product available to a wider market. The objective is to skim profits of the market layer by layer.
Competition pricing: PANTALOON is Setting a price in comparison with competitors
Product Line Pricing: Pricing different products within the same product range at different price points. An example would be a video manufacturer offering different video recorders with different features at different prices. The greater the features and the benefit obtained the greater the consumer will pay. This form of price discrimination assists the company in maximizing turnover and profits.
Bundle Pricing: The PANTALOON bundles a group of products at a reduced price.
Psychological pricing: The seller here will consider the psychology of price and the positioning of price within the market place. The seller will therefore charge 99p instead £1 or $199 instead of $200.
Premium pricing: The PANTALOON price set is high to reflect the exclusiveness of the product. An example of products using this strategy would be Harrods, first class airline services, Porsche etc.
Optional pricing: The PANTALOON sells optional extras along with the product to maximize its turnover. This strategy is used commonly within the car industry.
PLACE
Place
The place is where you can expect to find your customer and consequently, where the sale is realized.Place is also known as channel, distribution, or intermediary.It is the mechanism through which goods and services are moved from the manufacturer or service provider to the user or consumer.Distribution is about getting the product to the customer.
Distribution includes:-Distribution ChannelsMarket coverageSpecific channel membersInventory managementWarehousingDistribution centersOrder processingTransportationReverse logistics
Types of Channel Intermediaries:- There are many types of
intermediaries such as :- Wholesalers Agents Retailers Internet overseas distributors direct marketing (from manufacturer
to user without an intermediary)
WHOLESALERS They break down 'bulk' into smaller packages for resale by a retailer.They buy from producers and resell to retailers. They take ownership or 'title' to goods whereas agents do not.
They provide storage facilities. Agents:-Agents are mainly used in international markets.An agent will typically secure an order for a producer and will take a commission.They do not tend to take title to the goods.Agents can be very expensive to train.They are difficult to keep control of due to the physical distances involved.They are difficult to motivate.
Retailers:- Retailers will have a much stronger personal relationship
with the consumer. The retailer will hold several other brands and products. A
consumer will expect to be exposed to many products. Retailers will often offer credit to the customer e.g.
electrical wholesalers, or travel agents. Products and services are promoted and merchandised by
the retailer.
Internet:- The Internet has a geographically disperse market. The main benefit of the Internet is that niche products
reach a wider audience. There are low barriers to entry as set up costs are low. Use e-commerce technology for payment, shopping
software, etc. There is a paradigm shift in commerce and consumption
which benefits distribution via the Internet
