Dynamic Pricing is the game changer

If you are running a business where success highly depends on the configured value of the product/service prices, then this article is for you.  In the flat world, prices are impacted by multiple input criteria (competitors, location, currency exchange rate, news, ...), so having a Dynamic Pricing system will help you stay in the game and of course, guarantee your success in the long term.

What is dynamic pricing?

Dynamic pricing, also referred to as surge pricing, demand pricing, or time-based pricing, is a revenue management pricing strategy in which businesses set flexible prices for products or services based on current market demands.

Businesses are able to change prices based on algorithms that take into account competitor pricing, supply and demand, and other external factors in the market. Dynamic pricing is a common practice in several industries such as hospitality, tourism, entertainment, retail, electricity, and public transport. Each industry takes a slightly different approach to dynamic pricing based on its individual needs and the demand for the product.

Static Pricing versus Dynamic Pricing

Dynamic pricing benefits

Using dynamic pricing helps ensure that businesses get the best margin on every sale, every time. By minimizing costs, e-commerce companies maximize profits and fuel growth.

1 - Control pricing strategy

Dynamic pricing gives you the most effective control of your overall pricing strategy if you have a business strategy of selling below your direct competition, that can be worked into algorithms so that prices react to what competitor prices are doing.

2 - Enhanced competitiveness

Related to the above, you can ensure that you’re always within a reasonable distance — high or low — of competitors. You can help avoid situations where pricing is prohibitive to sales and make pricing decision-making automatic.

3 - Saves company money

Margins will change based on a host of factors. Dynamic pricing helps keep margins at an ideal level and avoids situations where market conditions cost your e-commerce platform money.

4 - Provides greater flexibility

With traditional pricing, you’re locked into a specific price point that may or may not be the ideal price. Dynamic pricing removes this threat and keeps margins at an acceptable level regardless of market conditions.
