Examine competitors’ pricing and explain reasoning for differences.
Estimate how much you think the target market is willing to pay for your product/service. Is this due to preferences for social responsibility, ethical behavior, or other intangibles?
What pricing strategy (skimming, penetration, economy, or premium) is most appropriate and why?
