Gabor-Granger Pricing Technique

Gabor-Granger Pricing Technique
- Expérience client, Étude de marché, Gestion des produits, Prix des produits
Objectif :
Comment il est utilisé :
- Respondents are shown a product and asked if they would buy it at a specific price. If yes, the price is raised; if no, it's lowered (or a random series of prices is presented). This continues for several price points to create a demand curve.
Avantages
- Directly measures willingness to buy at specific prices, helps estimate revenue and profit potential at different price levels, relatively straightforward to implement in surveys.
Inconvénients
- Hypothetical purchase intent may not reflect actual buying behavior, doesn't explicitly account for competitor actions or product alternatives in the questioning.
Catégories :
- Clients et marketing, Économie
Idéal pour :
- Estimating demand and potential revenue for a product at various specific price points.
The Gabor-Granger Pricing Technique is particularly effective in various stages of product development and marketing strategies across several industries including consumer goods, technology, and pharmaceuticals. This methodology can be especially beneficial during the product ideation and prototype testing phases, where understanding customer sentiment towards pricing can lead to informed design and marketing decisions. Key participants in this technique typically include product managers, market researchers, and pricing strategists, who together analyze customer responses to shape pricing strategies that align with perceived value. For instance, in the technology sector, companies launching new devices can employ this method to gauge how potential customers respond to different price points, allowing them to optimize pricing strategies right before launch. The healthcare industry often employs this technique in market research for new drugs or medical devices, where it is critical to understand pricing dynamics to ensure market access and reimbursement. The simplicity of this method allows organizations to gather quantifiable data efficiently through surveys and online platforms, which can be rapidly analyzed to generate demand curves, thus providing actionable insights that can adapt to different segments and preferences. By incorporating demographic factors or psychographic profiles, firms can segment responses, allowing for targeted pricing strategies that cater specifically to identified consumer bases, enhancing revenue potential while also refining product offerings based on real market data. This adaptability makes the Gabor-Granger approach a versatile tool for organizations navigating multiple market uncertainties.
Principales étapes de cette méthodologie
- Show respondents a product along with an initial price point.
- Ask respondents if they would purchase the product at that price.
- If yes, increase the price in the next iteration; if no, decrease the price.
- Repeat this process for a series of price points to map demand.
- Analyze the responses to construct a demand curve based on willingness to buy.
Conseils de pro
- Conduct sensitivity analysis to understand how variations in pricing affect demand elasticity, refining your price ranges accordingly.
- Incorporate psychographic factors into your survey design to capture deeper motivations and psychological pricing thresholds of different segments.
- Iterate on the pricing experiments by utilizing A/B testing methodologies to identify the most effective price points in real-time settings.
