Manage episode 395545986 series 3390105
Do you know what pricing trends to expect in 2024?
As we begin the new year, it’s a good time to take a look at what’s been happening and where things are headed.
People often mistake pricing as a “one-and-done” activity. The reality is that if your prices aren’t changing, then you’re no longer aligned with the market. Meaning you’re under or over priced. The consequences of that are many, most remarkably lower sales and profits. Ouch!
That’s no way to start a new year.
To avoid finding yourself in this situation, take a step back and look at where things are in the world – in your market, in your business, and in your pricing. To help you with that, I’ve put together some research and my own insights to help you get started. Let’s kick the year off with a look at Pricing Trends for 2024.
In This Episode:
In the past few years, we have seen a lot of fast-paced change.
As you consider your pricing strategy and what to do it’s good to take a look at where have things landed and what does it mean in terms of how people behave when they make purchases. That’s where we start our discussion, with a look at the “state of affairs”.
Then we turn towards upcoming trends in pricing, as an indication of what you might expect in the year to come. And last, my recommendations on what you might focus your attention to get ahead.
Enjoy the episode.
