Cover image

Setting the right price for your products is both an art and a science. It’s a balancing act between profitability and customer appeal, more so in industries like hospitality where every fils counts. Different models suit different business needs. Here’s a look at a few:

Cost-Plus Pricing:

Competitive Pricing

Value-Based Pricing

Cost-Plus Pricing

Cost-plus pricing is straightforward: calculate the cost of your product or service and add a markup percentage to determine the price. 

Pro: It’s simple and ensures all costs are covered. 

Con: This model doesn’t account for market demand or perceived value, which can sometimes lead to prices that either are too high for customers or too low to maximize profits.

Competitive Pricing: Market Aligned

Competitive pricing involves setting your prices based on those of your competitors to ensure you are competitive in crowded markets.

Pro: Stay aligned with the market while ensuring you’re neither undercharging nor overcharging. 

Con: May limit your profit margins

Value-Based Pricing

Value-based pricing sets prices primarily based on the perceived or estimated value of a product or service to the customer. 

Pro: Can lead to higher profit margins as it focuses on what customers are willing to pay for the unique value of your product

Con: Requires a deep understanding of your customer’s needs and preferences, making it more complex

Which one is for me? 

Choosing the right pricing model is crucial for business success. Whether you opt for cost-plus, competitive, or value-based pricing, each model has its merits and challenges. The key is to understand your market, costs, and customer perceptions
