Why Pricing Strategy Matters
Your pricing directly impacts your profitability, brand perception, and market position. Price too high and you may lose customers; price too low and you may leave money on the table or appear as low-quality.
An effective pricing strategy considers your costs, competitor pricing, perceived value, and your business objectives.

Premium Pricing: For businesses offering superior quality, features, or brand prestige.
Standard Pricing: For businesses competing on equal footing with competitors.
