household products.

• Set at artificially low price in order to gain market share, then increase the price
when target market share is achieved. E.g. desk-top printer.
• Price Skimming
• Set at a high price when the product is less price sensitive. It will attract new
competitors into the market, and then the price will fall due to increased supply and
competition. E.g. high-tech products, medical products.

• Always set at a high price. It is used where there is a unique brand such as for luxury
products.
