Price control refers to the brand's control of the products sold through e-commerce channels through a series of measures to ensure that the price of the product will not be too low or too high, in line with the brand's pricing strategy and channel layout. Why do we need to control prices? There are several main reasons:
First of all, price control helps to maintain brand image and positioning. By controlling prices, brands can ensure that the sales of products in different channels are consistent, avoiding confusion. This helps consumers better understand the brand and build trust in the brand, which in turn increases purchase intent.
Secondly, price control helps to protect the interests of dealers. By controlling prices, brands can ensure that the sales of online e-commerce channels are not too low or too high, so as to avoid impacting the interests of offline dealers. This helps maintain dealer loyalty and stability, which in turn promotes the long-term growth of the brand.
Third, price control helps to improve the sales effect of products. By controlling prices, brands can formulate reasonable strategies to improve the cost performance and competitiveness of products. This helps to attract more consumers and increase the sales and market share of the product.
Fourth, price control is conducive to maintaining market order and fair competition. By controlling prices, brands can avoid vicious competition behaviors such as first-class wars in online e-commerce channels, and maintain market order and a fair competition environment. This contributes to the healthy development of the industry and avoids unnecessary losses and risks.
To sum up, price control is of great significance to brands, distributors, consumers and the market. Brands should pay attention to price control and formulate reasonable strategies to ensure the stability and good order of online e-commerce channels. At the same time, consumers and distributors should also actively support and supervise the price control work of the brand owner, and jointly maintain market order and a fair competition environment.
