BADM533 - M51 Marketing Management




Recall the product life cycle from Chapter 8 and talk about the pricing methods

used at each stage of the life cycle.

Introduction stage - Depending on the type of goods, the price is usually either low or

high. For innovative products, the strategy is price penetration or price skimming. The price

is adjusted based on the answer. If demand is high and there is no competition, a high price is

set (Iacobucci, 2018).

Growth Stage - Price can be increased at this stage if the objective was price

penetration and sales have grown. As manufacturing has increased, the cost per unit of

creating items has decreased, allowing for cheaper prices (Iacobucci, 2018). Price can be

decreased if price skimming is employed. This, too, is dependent on the sales goals set by the

firm (Iacobucci, 2018). Companies will cut their prices if they can boost sales by doing so. If

a low-cost competitor enters the market, the price will be decreased. The business

must pursue a competitive pricing approach.

Maturity Stage - Sales are nearly stable at this stage, and competition is strong,

therefore businesses adopt a competitive pricing approach. Some businesses use a discount

price approach to get customers to buy their goods (Iacobucci, 2018).

Decline Stage - During this stage, product sales have decreased. Because sales have

decreased, the company has decided to cut the product's price. There are a variety of

techniques that may be used, such as discount pricing and bundling. Some businesses prefer

to do nothing with pricing because they aren't sure if sales are truly falling or if it's just a blip

on the radar (Iacobucci, 2018).
