2020 PriceEdge Retreat

October 6, 2020 in Blog

A couple of weeks ago, the Stockholm and Bucharest office, as well as some of our remote engineers, spent a couple of days together on Ornö outside Stockholm, to work together, reconnect, and plan out our growth plan for 2021. Due to the coronavirus restrictions, we had to rethink our yearly meetup and decided to run a meetup closer to our Stockholm HQ to reduce travel needs and as well have parts of the company join in remotely (about half could join in onsite this year).

We set up camp in a large villa built-in 1920 by what can best be described as the Swedish Gatbsy. During the roaring 20s he used the villa for parties after Grand hotel Stockholm closed in the evening by taking the party-goers on his steam-powered yacht out to the villa in the late night. With large rooms, plenty of bedrooms, and a private beach & sauna this suited our meetup needs perfectly.

During the week we worked, cooked, and workshopped together. As a team, we wanted to celebrate our success, and spend some time away from the everyday hustle, to think about our company vision, and work on product and organization strategies for the future. The sauna and the local tennis court also got its fair use.

Our 2020 company trip was a success in the end, even though not all could join psychically, we hope that next year we can all be there. We now look forward to putting the conversations we had in to work. We’re already looking toward the future with excitement as our team grows quickly to meet the demands we have from our clients.

You can check out some of what we got up in our pictures below.

Considering the wealth of information available online, it’s easier than ever to make informed purchasing decisions. On the flip side, it’s just as easy to feel like you’re drowning in wave after wave of value propositions and unique selling points when shopping for a PO&M solution.

January 20, 2020 in Blog

From tweaking your pricing to running large price revisions, every aspect of your pricing process contributes to the overall success of your business. While this means there are plenty of opportunities to improve and grow, it also means that there is a lot to keep track of, which is why you need a Price Optimization & Management (PO&M) system. Here are the benefits of PO&M for your business and your pricing team.

Psychological Tricks to Use in eCommerce Pricing

December 11, 2019 in Blog

This shouldn’t come as a surprise, but we humans aren’t always rational creatures. Sometimes we make choices based on sound reasoning and logic, and sometimes based on our emotions and our “gut feeling”.

When pricers set prices assuming an “economic” model customer (using rational choice theory), they risk missing out on the best pricing strategies.

Shoppers don’t always carefully consider the quality of a product, its relationship to other products on the market, or the correlation between its price and its actual value. Sometimes they make purchasing decisions based on whether a product is made to look like a great deal, or whether it seems like it might sell out quickly.

This unpredictability can complicate the work of setting prices in eCommerce stores. Fortunately for eCommerce marketers, there are several psychological “tricks”–we prefer to think of them as good strategies–that can make customers more receptive to certain prices.

Here are some of our favorite strategies:
