Entering New Markets: To Cut or Not to Cut Prices

Stephen Tseng

Your price is high…

When you enter the new international market.

What can you do?

There are typically four ways to solve this problem:

1. Lower your price

Pros: You might have more price advantage.

Cons: You will lose margin.

3. Communicate the value of your products to fill the price gap

Pros: You don’t need to lower the price.

Cons: It requires some time to educate potential clients.

2. Find the segment who are not sensitive to the price and has demand for your products.

Pros: You don’t need to lower the price.

Cons: The segment might be competitive with a long sales cycle.

3. Localize your products with a new product line.

Pros: You can have more price advantage and product portfolio flexibility.

Cons: The manufacturing requires much more investment.

There is no perfect solution for this market challenge.

It all depends on the market and your business strategy.
