Pricing & conjoint

Getting your pricing strategy right is key – and this is especially the case when economic conditions are tough

We can help with a range of questions such as;

- how I should I price a new product?
- where are the critical thresholds?
- how much will a price increase drive my profitability?
- how much will a price cut increase my share?
- what is the most powerful combination of price and promotion type for my brand / category?

We use a variety of techniques; for example Van Westendorp to look at price expectations for a new product and choice based conjoint to look at the impact of price changes to an existing brand. We also use conjoint to optimise new product packages

These techniques are widely used but where we at Engage really add value is interpreting what the output means in the real world. Increased preference or ‘share’ in a conjoint model does not necessarily mean that that increase will be seen in the market. Our experience has identified a number of category characteristics that help calibrate the output and increase the predictive power of these techniques.
