• A segmented pricing strategy uses two or more different prices for a product, even though there is no difference in the item’s cost.
• This strategy can help optimize profits and compete more effectively.
• Also called revenue or yield management.
• Certain conditions must exist for segmented pricing to be effective.

• Revenue management may also be defined as the use of differential pricing based on customer segment, time of use, and product or capacity availability to increase supply chain profits

• Price segmentation (offering different prices to different market segments) increases overall revenues and profits.

• As an example, imagine that your business only offers one product priced at $5. But some consumers are willing to pay up to $8. You are leaving $3 on the table for each of them. Other consumers are more price-sensitive and only willing to pay $3. You do not get any of their business. With price segmentation more revenue is generated by offering three prices -- $3, $5 and $8 – instead of just one -- $5.

Segmented Pricing Strategies
Four factors can help marketers use segmented pricing strategies:
• Buyer identification: Some buyers are more price-sensitive than others.
• Product design: Different product styles may be more in demand.
• Purchase location: Some areas have higher prices than others.
• Time of purchase: Demand for products and services rises at certain times.

CUSTOMER SEGMENTED PRICING
• Different customers pay different prices for the same product or service.
• Some buyers are more price-sensitive than others.
• Charging different prices to different buyers based on observable characteristics that signal buyers' price sensitivity.
• e.g. museums charges different rates for children, students, adults, and senior citizens.

PRODUCT FORM PRICING
• Different product styles may be more in demand.
• When different versions of the product are priced differently but not according to differences in cost.(NOT HAVE MUCH DIFFERENCE)
• Ex: An ordinary stand fan may be sold for P400. The same stand fan which has an added feature, say, a timer which costs P120 to install may be sold for P1,500.

LOCATION PRICING
• Different locations are priced differently even though the cost of offering each location is the same. e.g. Movie houses, BALCONY SEATS
• Charge higher prices at places where less price sensitive buyers purchase
• Price sensitive and price-insensitive buyers naturally purchase at different locations or…
• Insensitive buyers will not change purchase location to take advantage of the price difference

Segmenting By Volume Or Purchase Quantity
• When price segments differ in the quantities they buy, charge different prices for different quantities
• Ex: This is usually done depending upon quantities ordered. They have the normal wholesale price per article, and then offer discounts of say 2.5% on quantity below 10, 5% for orders of 10-100, 7.5% for orders of 101 - 200, and 10% for orders over 200.

TIME PRICING
• Demand for products and services rises at certain times.
• Charging higher prices at times when less price sensitive buyers naturally purchase, and charge lower prices at times when it would be inconvenient for them to purchase.
• There must be a natural difference in time-of-purchase patterns for different segments of buyers.

TIME PRICING
• Price of a certain product varies according to the time or season of the year
• EX: Higher hotel room rates for holidays and other peak tourist seasons

Segmenting By Product Bundling
Selling different products either as an indivisible bundle, or only at higher prices if separated
• Buyers must differ in their relative valuations of the bundled goods.

Examples
Salido’s Salad and Sandwich Shop
The local outlet of a fast food chain charges $2.60 for a salad from its salad bar if ordered a la carte. When ordered with a sandwich, however, the salad bar costs only $1.99. In either case, the customers are permitted to fill their bowls just once

Smart Steak House
A fancy steak house in a shopping mall offers a 20% discount to employees of other stores in the mall, provided that they eat before 6:00 PM or after 8:00 PM
– Can you explain the rationale for this strategy?

Delicious Deli
A deli in a college town has an interesting pricing strategy for students. The dinner specials at the restaurant are normally $4.95. Students, however, can buy weekly "meal tickets" that give them three meals for $13.90, 5 meals for $22.25, or seven meals for $29.90. The tickets expire at the end of each week and they are not transferable
– Can you explain this pricing strategy?

The Importance of Segmented Pricing
• Designing an optimal price structure that effectively segments your market and maximizes your profitable sales opportunities is clearly among the most difficult aspects of pricing strategy.
• This types of segmentation tactics discussed can serve as a guide to separating markets, finding a basis for segmentation (i.e., a particular buyer characteristic or a particular bundling combination) ultimately requires creative insight.

different degree of demand.
• Pricing must be legal• Costs of segmentation can not
exceed revenues earned• Segmented pricing must reflect
