Market Skimming Setting a high price
for a new product to “skim” revenues layer by layer from those willing to pay the high price.
Company makes fewer, but more profitable sales.
When to Use Product’s quality and
image must support its higher price.
Costs of low volume can’t be so high they cancel the advantage of charging more.
Competitors should not be able to enter market easily and undercut price.

Fuel for ThoughtFuel for Thought
Suppose that your firm implements a penetration pricing strategy while costs are increasing, only to find that demand is insufficient at the price set.
How likely is it that you will be able to successfully raise your price to offset the increase in costs? Or would it be would be better to decrease price further? Would your answer depend on the elasticity of demand? Explain!
