COMPETENCY FOCUS:Creativity: learners will develop skills in creativity and design by firstly looking at how promotion is used in business to help them to reach their goals and secondly, to design their own promotional campaign responding to a creative brief from the client. Reasoning: Learners will develop skills in reasoning as after providing advantages and disadvantages for the use of the promotional mix, you will be required to make a reasoned judgment. [IB Learner Profile Development:Thinker]

PRICEPricing Strategies Price Skimming (charging higher price at first) Penetration Pricing (Set a low price to gain a foothold in the
market) Price Leader (Leader in market, others follow) Destroyer Pricing (Set really low price to eliminate competition
from market) Price Discrimination (charging different prices to different
customers) Psychological Pricing (£9.99) Cost+ Pricing (‘bottom-line’ + extra) Contribution Pricing (Contribution towards fixed costs) Loss Leaders (Economy Pricing) (very low price to attract
customers)

1) Supply• The supply of a product is the quantity of a product a
supplier is willing to provide, at different prices.
This is a straightforward ‘supply’ curve. When demand for your products is high, then the business will usually
supply more products to get more profit.

1) Supply
How easy a business can supply more products depends on:
- Availability of raw materials- Logistics (getting the goods to the
customers)- Competition for raw materials- Government support

2) Demand• The ‘demand’ of a product is the quantity of a
product a customer will buy at a given price.
This is a straightforward ‘demand’ curve. When price is low, demand for your products is high. At lower prices, products are more affordable to people.

2) Demand
A number of factors influence the demand for a product:- Affordability- Competition- Level of substitutes- Level of income (inferior goods)- Wants and needs of customers- Seasonal variations

Price Elasticity of Demand (PED)How a price increase/decrease affects the quantity demanded.
PED: % change in quantity demanded% change in price
Inelastic = a change in price doesn’t affect demand (<1)Elastic = a price increase will lower demand (>1)

following changes in consumer’s income.
YED = % change in demand% change in income
