About this title

Synopsis

For undergraduate introduction to Market Pricing courses.

A comprehensive and practical, step-by-step guide to pricing analysis and strategy development.

The Strategy and Tactics of Pricing shows readers how to manage markets strategically―rather than simply calculate pricing based on product and profit―in order to improve their competitiveness and the profitability of their offers.

The fifth edition contains a new chapter on price implementation and several updated examples on pricing challenges in today’s markets.

Features:

NEW! Show students how proper pricing can increase profitability―New Chapter on Price Implementation.

A completely new chapter on implementing pricing strategy identifies the challenges involved in embedding strategic pricing principles within an organization. This chapter also describes how managers can lead a structured change process to build a more profitable commercial organization.

NEW! Make pricing theory relative―Updated Examples of Pricing.

Helping connect pricing theory to what students are familiar with, this edition includes updated examples with more topical illustrations of current pricing challenges such as:
•    iPhone pricing
•    New models for pricing music
•    Services pricing

NEW! Present the latest information―Heavily Revised Chapters.
The revised chapter on Pricing Policy provides a theoretically-grounded framework to describe specific policies for managing price changes for situations such as:
-Cost-based price increases
-Price reductions in a recession
-Discounts

The chapter on Value Creation now addresses the difference between how to consider value when it is driven by tangible monetary drivers (saving money on gas) versus the more subjective psychological drivers (doing the right thing for the environment).

The chapter on Value and Price Communication has been substantially revised to describe how to communicate value in a wide variety of product and customer contexts. This chapter also demonstrates how to target communications to affect specific behaviors throughout the customer’s buying process.
The chapter on Price Setting has been expanded to provide a robust process for setting prices that can be widely applied to consumer and business markets.

Store Description

Sharing is the best surprise When we share our excess with others we�re often surprised by what we feel, what changes in us, and who we get to know in the process. Sharehouse Goods exists to create that experience for as many people as possible. Sharehouse Goods receives excess stuff from individuals or organizations (our sharers), and then we liquidate that stuff, creating jobs for people in Milwaukee. The process is simple: we receive what people are willing to share, and then we sell it online or at our storefront, creating revenue for the sharers (to keep or to donate), and jobs for people who are struggling to find employment. There�s a lot of sharing going on, and even more surprises, at Sharehouse Goods.
