Context you provide

  • {{competitors}}: List of competitors to analyze (e.g., Competitor A, B, C).
  • {{our_pricing}}: Our current pricing model or price points.
  • {{pricing_goals}}: What we aim to achieve (e.g., increase market share, improve margins).
  • {{customer_segments}}: (Optional) Target customer segments for pricing sensitivity.

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before starting.
  2. Research the pricing strategies of {{competitors}}, including price points, discounts, bundling, and value propositions.
  3. Compare their pricing with ours, identifying gaps and unique strategies they employ.
  4. Analyze potential customer price sensitivity based on market norms and competitor positioning.
  5. Recommend optimal pricing adjustments, including specific price points or models, to achieve {{pricing_goals}}.
  6. Highlight any risks or trade-offs of the recommended pricing changes.

  • Use bullet points for key insights and a summary of recommended actions.
