Consumer Goods

Pricing in the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) and Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sectors is a complex and dynamic process that presents a wealth of opportunities for growth and profitability. It involves a variety of sophisticated tools and strategies designed to optimize pricing structures and enhance market competitiveness. However, navigating this landscape also comes with its own set of challenges, requiring businesses to stay agile and informed. By leveraging advanced pricing analytics and consumer insights, companies can effectively address these challenges, ensuring they not only meet market demands but also maximize their revenue potential.

Pricing and Revenue Growth Management (RGM)

 

In recent years, price optimization has expanded beyond just setting prices to a comprehensive strategy for maximizing total revenue. This includes considering prices, products, packaging, brands, ranges, and promotions together, known as Revenue Growth Management (RGM).

PriceBeam uses scientific and quantitative methods to eliminate uncertainty in pricing and RGM. Our predictive consumer & shopper insights reveal what consumers are willing to pay.

We focus on long-term RGM by providing ongoing consumer and brand tracking, along with AI-driven virtual shopper modeling. This allows us to simulate price changes, product adjustments, new product launches, competitor actions, and cost variations, including those from tariffs.

 

Price Increases
 

Inflation & Price Increases go Hand-in-Hand

 

Inflation is a constant factor, so it's crucial for RGM teams to understand and manage the effects of price increases. A key part of optimizing price increases is knowing consumers' willingness-to-pay (WtP).

If a product is priced below WtP, it has Pricing Power, making price increases easier. Conversely, if priced above WtP, there is a Pricing Power Deficit, making price increases challenging or even harmful.

PriceBeam's predictive insights on willingness-to-pay provide these consumer insights as either a one-time snapshot or through continuous tracking.

Segmentation and Value Differentiation

 

Not all consumers are willing to pay the same price. In many consumer goods categories, the top 20% of buyers are willing to pay more than three times what the bottom 20% are willing to pay.

To effectively manage revenue growth, it's crucial to segment based on willingness-to-pay. This involves analyzing WtP insights by demographics, attitudes, channels, brands, flavors, packaging, retailers, and occasions.

Price Pack Architecture

Revenue can and should be optimized across a variety of packaging dimensions through a strategic approach known as Price Pack Architecture, or PPA. This discipline is essential for businesses aiming to maximize their profitability by tailoring their offerings to meet consumer preferences.

PPA requires a deep understanding of how consumers perceive value and express their sentiments regarding different packaging options, whether it be through varying pack sizes, innovative pack designs, or diverse flavor offerings. By leveraging insights into consumer behavior and preferences, companies can effectively align their product packaging with market demands, ultimately driving increased sales and enhancing customer satisfaction.

Promotion
 

Optimizing Promotional Prices & Mechanisms

 

Promotion is a vital part of the marketing mix. For many consumer goods brands, promotional spending is key to both budget and consumer engagement. It's essential to optimize promotional pricing and understand which promotional strategies appeal to consumers and shoppers.

PriceBeam's Promotion Lab and Promotion Lab Enhanced provide valuable insights into effective promotional strategies across different channels and retailers. Best of all, they offer concrete market data on expected ROI before launching a promotion.

By understanding how shoppers respond to promotions in terms of sales volume or revenue increase, you can compare promotion types across different channels, retailers, or countries, establishing best practices throughout the company.
