[04:35 - 22:36] What You Need to Know About Price Testing 

  • Why price testing is important for private label brands
    • Many times people don’t know what the right price for the product is anymore because of inflation
    • Not only does it help with testing for better profit but prices need to adapt to variables and ever-changing demands
  • The psychology of pricing heavily affects conversion
  • Checking the price changes is usually done manually by business owners which is time-consuming but Eva is a great automated help providing real-time data
  • Hai Mag explains the mechanics behind Eva’s repricing and profitability feature
  • He recommends these options and features in the price testing: 
    • Sellers must know what is their accurate profit so they could enter the cost information
    •  The system does the rest using inventory and velocity-based pricing

Quotes:

 

“Almost every single Cost parameter, and the consumer expectations, everything is like volatile, everything is dynamic. So there is absolutely no reason left like to keep the price even for a month in a static way, on Amazon.” - Hai Mag
