4、ers, including both products and services. An adequate, sustainable and creative pricing strategy is based on the equilibrium of financial returns desired by companies and well being of consumers in the tough global competitive arena. I work with a framework method that has three major phases for this creative pricing strategy (CPS) process. The first phase is the understanding of the initial value of the product or service given by the consumer. The second is about increasing this value, and fi

5、nally, the third is the strategic pricing movements. Lets move to the first.Understanding the initial value given by the consumer Before any pricing decision is taken, a company must analyze the external environment: economic, income and demand conditions (1). After this, a company should look to the target consumer, understand his behavior, his perception of the reasonable price (using surveys, experts, food labs) and do initial pricing experiences in different marketing channels. Analyze the t

6、otal consumer costs when buying the product (money needed, time expended, knowledge acquisition, training costs, and psychological costs) that may be working as buying barriers. All the consumers risks in buying the companys product or service should be raised (2). The third analysis in this first phase of CPS process is related to competitors, competing products/solutions and their prices, and how the consumer values and compares with competitors the product attributes (3).

Another opportunity is to compare the cost of the product as a proportion of the consumers income or total expenditure, measuring and communicating (5). A company can use lock in strategies, using the product as a complement with other assets acquired before by consumers (6). It is importan

9、t to try to communicate the importance of attributes the product and service has and the danger of having problems if this attributes, for instance, quality and safety, are neglected by competitors (7). A company may also think in a possibility of offering a problem solution driven package of products and services to conquer the buyers, what is sometimes called as bundling (8). A list of possibilities to mitigate consumers buying risks of the product that was raised in phase one is also an idea

10、(9). Some markets offer possibilities of skimming price strategies for new solutions (image, status, and exclusivity), capturing value from innovative consumers, first movers and status oriented market segments (10). A last point in this second phase of CPS is to show economic benefits to consumers (like lower production costs) in buying the solution of the company with simple messages and credible commitments (11).
