Prissättning

Manufacturing

Optimising a pricing strategy is essential for keeping customers in the field of manufacturing, and thus maintaining a steady growth. Selling a product for more than its production cost may sound simple in theory, yet choosing the right markup that keeps your customers satisfied is a very delicate process.

Price optimisation is the process of finding the right price level for maximising your sales and increasing your market share. If prices are too high, volume might be too low. On the other hand, if your prices are too low, the unit sales volumes might be higher, but costs increase and profitability suffers.
The right set of tools can make a big difference in pricing.

Pricing Challenges & Solutions

Here are the core challenges that exist in price optimisation in  manufacturing:

Lack of insights into price elasticity

Price elasticity is a very important factor in price optimisation. Being aware of the elasticity of your products helps you better determine your course of action, whether it means increasing price to get more profit or decreasing it to sell more and increase revenue.

Not integrating valuable knowledge and experience

Within an organisation, much of the knowledge and expertise is concentrated within a few key managers. If they were to leave, this knowledge may be lost, and the organisation might suffer. For steady business continuation, knowledge assurance is paramount.

Large volume of manual work

Managing prices based on spreadsheets or other manual, repetitive tasks, and guesswork is often ineffective and very time-consuming. Pricing with static tools such as Excel, or based on gut feeling is unreliable, error-prone and almost impossible to organise in a structured way.
