Pricing Your Product to Its Value

Pricing Your Product to Its Value

Are you clearly, communicating your product's relevance and value to motivate your ideal customer?

Once you understand your ideal customer and your competitive landscape, you can start positioning your product or service.

Positioning means creating an image of your company and its products or services in the minds of your existing and potential customers.

?This is important because it's how you communicate your product's relevance and value, which is the key to pricing it appropriately and increasing your sales.

Let's dive into a world where your excellent product or service gets the spotlight it deserves.

Your probable question is, how do you make your business shine bright like a star in the minds of the people who might want to buy from you, your customers?

This is called positioning.

It's like painting a mental picture of how great your product is. It's how you show people that what you're selling is worth their hard-earned money.

Value vs. Price: What's the Difference?

Sometimes we say "value" and "price" are like twins. However, they're more like cousins.

Let's see what makes them different!

Value is like a superpower your product gives to the person using it.

Imagine you've got excellent software that helps people build amazing websites in a snap. That superpower - making website building easy and fast - is the value your software gives.

But here's the tricky part

Value is like a secret power only the person using it can see. If someone tries your software and it doesn't make their job easier, they won't see any value in it. It's a personal thing.


Price, on the other hand, is the actual amount of money someone pays for your product.

Here's something funny: a product's price can be sky-high, even if it didn't cost you much to make it.

Your cost to make the product can relate to something other than what's unique about the product.

You might have heard the saying, "One person's trash is another person's treasure." What's a gem for one might be junk for another.

?Your super fancy software is a treasure for a web designer, but it may seem useless to a person who's never used a computer.


So, your job is to determine your product's value to your customer and put the right price on it.

Positioning helps with this. It shows the treasure in your product that might not be obvious at first sight.

It also makes your product stand out from the crowd.

More Value, More Wow!

How can you make your product even more valuable without increasing your cost?

It's like adding sprinkles to a cupcake - the little extras can make a big difference.

?Here are some ideas:

  • Make your service faster or deliver your product quicker.
  • Show you really care about quality.
  • Prove that you're reliable. Give your customers different ways to reach you.
  • Give the best customer service.
  • Make it super easy for customers to buy from you.

Any tiny action you can take to improve your customer's life adds more value to your product.

?If buying from you is faster, easier, safer, or cheaper, you'll shine brighter than your competitors.

This is what you want to show through your position.


Are you ready to shine brighter and make your business the star of the show?

Very good points about value and price. You are right that you want to pack your product or service with lots of value. You do that, Gary, with the work you do helping businesses to achieve their goals. I like what you said about emphasizing quality of your product. That is so important and needed for today. Thank you for sharing this with us. Very good words of advice.
