<\/span>What Is Prestige Pricing?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Prestige pricing, which is sometimes also known as image pricing or premium pricing, is a pricing strategy where an organization purposely puts a product or service at a higher price point. This is usually to provide the consumer with the idea that the product is of higher quality.<\/p>\n

By and large, this is a pricing strategy used by companies and organizations that are already recognized within the market for having a higher quality product than their competitors.<\/p>\n

It’s often strongly connected to the consumer\u2019s brand perception of that company or organization. It can also be heavily tied to the quality of a product or the added value that they bring to a consumer\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

<\/span>A Prestige Pricing Example<\/span><\/h2>\n

Apple takes home around 60% of all smartphone profits \u2013 yet they only have 24% of the smartphone market.<\/p>\n

While prestige pricing is not the only reason for Apple\u2019s success, it accounts for a large chunk of it.<\/p>\n

<\/span>What Prestige Pricing Strategies Are There?<\/span><\/h2>\n

High-End Images<\/h3>\n
