Examples of Calculations 1.0 Formulas
Not sure where to start? Here are some examples that you can use to establish your pricing strategy.
Basic Pricing: This formula calculates the recommended price based on the cost price and desired profit margin.
Recommended Price = Cost Price + (Cost Price * Desired Profit Margin)
Competitor-Aware Pricing: This formula integrates the lowest competitor price into your strategy.
Recommended Price = (Cost Price + (Cost Price * Desired Profit Margin) + Lowest Price Competitor) / 2
Market-Adaptive Pricing: This formula factors in cost, profit margin, competitor pricing, and market demand.
Recommended Price = ((Cost Price + (Cost Price Desired Profit Margin) + Lowest Price Competitor) / 2) Predicted Market Demand
Sales Data-Driven Pricing: This formula adjusts your pricing strategy based on historical sales performance and elasticity.
Recommended Price = (Cost Price + (Cost Price Desired Profit Margin)) (1 + ((Revenue Target - Previous Period Revenue) / Previous Period Revenue) * Demand Elasticity)
The possibilities are endless! You can get as sophisticated as needed to accomplish your unique pricing strategies and objectives. Have fun building calculations!
