A Simple Structural Framework for Understanding Price Strategies

The advance of the internet has made possible many things that were originally complex and cost intensive. One of the great revolutions in the forms of human interaction is the diminishing gap between people, even if they are physically miles apart.

This virtual proximity has gained commercial form with auctions sites and online stores. Nowadays, a small entrepreneur can start an internet business through different channels (whether using eBay or their own online store) and set a solid structure of negotiation. At these times, the need appears for guidance along the diverse concepts of sales and its applications.

  1. The relation profit/cost is an analysis from the vendor's point of view. It states that the final price of a saleable item must be enough to cover its acquisition/transformation cost plus a margin for profit. This last one represents your cost of opportunity for investing your time on the task of distributing and advertising your product online....
