EP235: 15 Minute Ecommerce Masterclass - 10 Pricing Strategies You Can Test

There is da Vinci quote used in Nick Kolenda’s book on pricing psychology that sums up what I’m talking about in this video masterclass: “All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions” Pricing is perception. How we each react to the same price can be different, depending on our perspectives. For this reason, price doesn’t have an absolute meaning. And if we understand what shapes perception, we can influence how price is perceived. This video explores ten practical ways this applies to ecommerce stores.
