SETTING THE PRICE
Selecting the Price Objectives:
We set the price in order to gain maximum market share. Because higher sales volume will
lead to higher long run profit.
Determining Demand:
As price and demand are inversely related; the higher will be the price, the lower will be the
demand. So we set our price that will not affect the demand of our product.
Customers are very price sensitive in order to viewing those consumer we categorize our
product. We are providing are product in liquid as well as in powder form and powder are
less of cost as compare to liquid with a similar taste.
Analyzing Competitor Cost:
As we have to analyze the direct competitor and indirect competitor’s price, so we carefully
observed the cost of our competitor and their selling price in the market. After that we will
conduct surveys that customers are satisfied with the price or not. After all the observation we
analyze our data decide to set the price.
Selecting The Pricing Method
There are many methods to set the product’s price. We have selected the GOING RATE
pricing, we will set the price of the product with compression of that our competitors
Pricing Strategy:
We will go for Market-Penetration pricing in start. Tea market of INDIA is already
highly price sensitive so that low price produces more market share. We will sets the
low price at initial stage in order to penetrate the market quickly and deeply, to attract
a large number of buyers and win a large market share.

Our pricing strategy is “high quality with fewer prices” which gives competitive advantages
against the multinational brands in beverages. Pricing charged for the product is
Other brands charged for the beverages more than the Lipton ICE TEA for the same quality
Level.
ADAPTING THE PRICE
Geographical Pricing:
We will charge the same prices to all geographical areas to create the consistency in our
product.
Price Discount And Allowances:
We will also provide some discounting packages, different packages for retailers and
customers. If retailer buys our product frequently and increases the sales volume we will
provide them refrigerators and for customers by buying one dozens Cain at a time we will
provide one Cain free to them.
Promotional Pricing:
In promotional pricing we are thinking to decrease our price in off season and also giving
some tremendous offers to the customers in Dewali like the price of one Cain is 25Rs by
buying 2 Cain at a time we will charge those 45Rs “only an example”

Target Market and Positioning Decision:
Retailers must define their target market and then decide how will position themselves in the
market. A class stores holds the high-price position. Therefore in our new marketing plan we
are positioning our product in every type of stores.
Product assortment and service decisions:
The retailer’s product assortment should differentiate the retailer while matching the target
shopper’s expectations. The service mix can also help set one retailer apart from another.The
stores atmosphere is another element in the reseller’s product arsenal. Every store has a
physical layout that makes moving around in it hard or easy. The retailers must design an
atmosphere that suits the target market and moves customers to buy.
Price decision:
Price is less than the competitors. Give the best quality products in low price.
Promotion decision:
Retailers use all of the promotion tools – advertising, personal selling, sales promotion,
public relations and direct marketing to reach consumers.
Place decision:
Public transport is easily available or easy access to stores. Location is very important that
retailers select locations that are accessible to target market in areas that are consistent with
the retailers arking for customers.
