Demand Driven Pricing

 Imagine that it’s winter time and you go to the sale rack at the clothing store. There are a ton of bathing suits marked down. This is an example of demand driven pricing. It’s a method that considers fluctuations in customer demand and adjusts prices to fit changes in perceived value of items/services. Let’s think about what goes into the price of an item or service. Looking at an item we have to think about factors, such as manufacturing costs, market, competition and quality. Taking these factors into consideration allows for demand driven pricing tactics as long as the brand is covering their costs to manufacture their product with some profit left on top. There are a few different demand driven pricing tactics to discuss.
