Types of pricing strategies

1. Retail price: choosing the right pricing strategy for your brand

Many retailers benchmark their pricing decisions using keystone pricing (explained below), which essentially is doubling the cost of a product to set a healthy profit margin

2. Keystone pricing: a simple markup formula

Keystone pricing is a pricing strategy retailers use as an easy rule of thumb.

Manufacturer suggested retail price

As its name suggests (no pun intended), the manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) is the price a manufacturer recommends retailers use when selling a product.

4. Multiple pricing: the pros and cons of bundle pricing

We’ve all seen this pricing strategy in grocery stores but it’s common for apparel as well, especially for socks, underwear, and t-shirts

5. Penetration pricing and discount pricing

It’s no secret that shoppers love sales, coupons, rebates, seasonal pricing, and other related markdowns.

6. Loss-leading pricing: increasing the average transaction value

We’ve all done this: we walk into a store lured by the promise of a discount on a hot-ticket product, but instead of walking away with only that product in hand, we end up purchasing several others as well.
