Competitive pricing can have several implications on market competition. It can lead to a price war where competitors continuously lower their prices to attract customers. This can result in thin profit margins. On the positive side, it can lead to better products and services as businesses strive to offer more value to justify their prices. It can also lead to a more balanced market where no single business can monopolize due to price advantage.

The key elements to consider in choosing the right pricing strategy include understanding your costs, knowing your competitors' prices, understanding your customers' price expectations, considering the evolution of the market, and assessing the competitiveness of the market.

Penetration pricing can have both positive and negative effects on a brand's image. On the positive side, it can help a brand establish a market presence and attract price-sensitive customers. However, it can also create a perception of the brand being 'cheap' or 'low-quality', which can be difficult to change even when prices are increased later. It's important for brands to carefully consider these potential impacts before implementing a penetration pricing strategy.
