Business

Sveta_85 [38]3 years ago

There are several ways a firm can compete without lowering their prices and they all involve differentiating themselves from competition. This is done by:

  • having a product with actual physical differences (samsung and Apple phones compete because they are similar but ultimately have different features)
  • Providing better service: there may be 100 dry cleaners in your city, but if one always makes sure your clothes are perfect and treats you like a valued customer you will go to them even if they don't cut prices.
  • Advertising - ads will increase the recognition of the brand and help it stand out in the marketplace without having to attract customers by dropping the price
