Can you provide examples of businesses that have successfully used penetration pricing or price skimming?

Yes, there are several examples of businesses that have successfully used penetration pricing and price skimming strategies.

For penetration pricing, Amazon is a prime example. When they first launched, they offered lower prices than traditional bookstores, which helped them gain a significant market share.

As for price skimming, Apple is a notable example. They often release new products at high prices, which are then gradually reduced over time. This strategy allows them to maximize profits from early adopters before targeting the mass market.

Please note that the success of these strategies depends on various factors, including the nature of the product, market conditions, and the company's overall business strategy.

Question was asked on:

This means considering two options: penetration pricing and price skimming. "Penetration pricing is a way to get a foothold in a market. Penetration pricing must be limited, either by cutting it off at a certain date or offering it to a limited number of people. If you get stuck on penetration pricing, you'll find yourself in no man's land. You may have plenty of clients, but they won't be paying you what you're worth. Price skimming can seem like a scary strategy. Maybe you're worried that if you try it, people will think you're overcharging and go elsewhere. That's a natural response, but if you get to market with a product that delivers great value before anyone else, it's important to remember that there is no agreed-upon fair price," Dill says.
