Ugly Dogs, undervalued SaaS, and Overpriced Wine: When Pricing Makes No Sense Ever wonder why some ugly dogs win dog shows or why overpriced wine just seems to taste better? Welcome to the paradox of pricing—where logic often takes a back seat. 🐶🍷 The "Ugly Dog" Paradox We've all seen those canine competitions where the winner is, well, let's say, not the next Lassie. Sometimes, the features that make a dog "ugly" in traditional terms are the same ones that make them unique, memorable, and prized. 📌 Insight: If your service or product has features that make it distinct but don't obviously add to the perceived value, don't hide them—highlight them. The Overpriced Wine Dilemma Studies have shown that people often perceive wine to be of better quality when it's more expensive, even when they're tasting the same wine at different price points. In fact, neuroscientific data reveal that the pleasure centres in our brain actually light up more when we think we're drinking pricier wine. 📌 Insight: The psychology of pricing is just as crucial as the economics of it. The SaaS Pricing Mistake When it comes to SaaS, many companies make the mistake of pricing their products too logically—emphasizing 'good value' so much that they inadvertently make themselves look second rate. If your product is premium, shouldn't your pricing reflect that? 💡 The Pricing Insight Your pricing isn't just a number; it's a powerful signal. If you price your SaaS too low, potential clients might question its value. On the other hand, a higher price point can actually improve customer satisfaction, because it alters the perception of your product’s worth. 📌 Quick Hack: Experiment with value-based pricing. Align the perceived value of your service with the price tag, even if it defies industry norms. And finally - What price for A Rock What price would you place on a ROCK, something you can pickup from the ground. I mean there everywhere. Launched in 1975 Pet Rock sold for $3.95 and today they still sell for $30. A million and a half rocks sold in two and a half months. Conclusion - Perception is Reality The world isn’t always logical, and your pricing doesn’t have to be either. Like an 'ugly' dog winning a show or an overpriced wine tasting better, perception is reality. Your pricing can, and should, be as unique as your product or service. Would love to hear your thoughts or experiences on how pricing affected your perception of value!

Costco Hot Dog FREE From Clutches Of Inflation Costco Hot Dog Frankfurter aficionados may now rejoice, Costco’s iconic hot dog combo will NOT be going up in price due to inflation. The beloved combo item will be staying at a firm $1.50. While this value meal might seemingly be immune to price hikes… This news is partially thanks to the unprecedented backlash by devotees of the wholesaler and the c-suite itself. Here’s what happened. Squashing Costco Hot Dog Rumors This controversy began when the former Chief Financial Officer of Costco, Richard Galanti, said that the Costco hot dog is “probably safe for a while”… Seems the former CFO wasn’t great at inspiring confidence. Since this comment, fans and business outlets have been speculating about the future of the adored food court items. The Costco hot dog combo became a fan favorite due to its unwavering price and value. Since 1984, when the combo was introduced, the price stayed at $1.50 without adjusting for inflation… PR and Frankfurter experts alike herald this as a fantastic move on behalf of the company. Not only does it keep the price down, making shoppers happy… But it also humanizes the company. And in a time when seemingly every grocery store and retailer is fighting over nickels and dimes, this is a good look to have. But what about the finances behind the combo? The company might be stern about the pricing but in actuality… This deal loses the company money. So why is Costco so adamant about preserving its hot dog pricing? Why Losing Money… Can Be Good For Business At the price that Costco is selling the hot dog combo, the company is operating at a loss. In fact, the company loses big time if it sells more than 100 million of its signature combo… IN 2023, COSTCO SOLD 130 MILLION HOT DOG COMBOS… WORTH $195 MILLION. If the value meal is creating losses, what reason does the chain have to fight to the end to keep it around? It’s simple: To the company, the hot dog does more than create losses. It actually provides value. The Costco hot dog being sold at a loss is part of a larger sales tactic. The combo in this scenario is an example of “loss-leader pricing”. Loss-leader pricing is when a company sells an item below market value, which attracts new customers. Ideally, those customers, while purchasing the cheaper product… Will also buy other more profitable goods. Not to mention, thanks to Costco’s membership model, they can afford to charge people dirt-cheap prices for their food-court treats. Most of the company’s revenue comes from the membership model… With the cheapest membership being $60 annually… So in reality, the infamous Costco hot dog is actually a huge value add for the brand’s members. The Hot Dog’s Cult Following Costco knows how important the hot dog combo is to the ecosystem the company has strived so hard to create.

The Power of Purpose True story and a lesson on the power of purpose. A global company with many pet brands was conflicted about what insights were valid and which innovation platforms to commercialize. The Lord of the Flies syndrome took over: Those who screamed the loudest and made the most alliances inside the company were “winning” at that moment… but at what cost? The morale of the culture, the trust of their teammates, and the ability to listen to the real needs of the market were all at stake. The debate reached a boiling point in the back room of a focus group. Sides were drawn. Careers were at stake. It was sickening, really, to see executives and professionals act so childish. decision. Inside the focus group, meanwhile, we were facilitating a great conversation. The participants included several store managers from Hollywood Feed, Petco, and the local buyer of the pet section at Whole Foods. As each new concept was unveiled, the store managers from Hollywood Feed and Petco responded whether they liked, loved, or didn’t like the concept, but added that they had little choice or authority in what they could buy for their stores. It was a different story for the local pet food buyer from Whole Foods. He knew exactly what he’d stock and what he’d pass on – and why it worked for his store. I had to know: How did he make decisions so easily? He said, “Our purpose is to be the healthiest grocery store in the world. I use our purpose to filter buying decisions.” I pressed, “Healthiest for whom?” He said, “For people, other species, and the planet.” The embarrassingly loud debate in the viewing room went silent. The other store managers ogled in disbelief. The clarity was enviable. The lucidity of purpose provided context and authority to make decisions and kept wasteful politics at bay. As a pioneer in the field of corporate purpose, Whole Foods provided this clarity to each of its buyers and embedded it in every facet of its operations. The contrast was stark: Rabid corporate politics eating one culture alive. Managers at stores with little authority where buying was centralized. They seemed a little less than, not fully functional in terms of what they could bring to the business or their own career. Then, you had a local buyer from Whole Foods with a simple mantra of purpose that inspired, guided, served as a decision matrix, and allowed for him to use his own judgment to make important decisions quickly. In a quiet way, he exuded confidence and exposed the excesses and limitations of the others on both sides of the glass wall, whose companies did not have a formal, active purpose. Purpose can be your most pragmatic, cunning value driver, providing a last legal means of real competitive advantage. Epic Pivot’s definition of purpose is how and why an organization creates value. Purpose can be called the life force of an organization, serving as a North Star in all actions and interactions.

Service case: high-end dog food POCHI brand story🐶✨ ▼Birth of POCHI POCHI was founded in 1998. Before that, in the world of show dogs, a dog that could not go out and perform was called a "pochi. Also, in pet shops, crossbreed dogs without pedigree certificates were called "pochi."☀️ POCHI was a premium dog food franchise, a heterogeneous name at the time, "Can dogs be treated differently according to people?" "Is a dog's happiness to take part in shows?" "Can't Japanese pochi be happier?" This sheer sense of incongruity arises. ▼▲▼Unique Attitude▼▲ Doubting common sense and dealing only with what is acceptable. This is the current culture of POCHI.🗝 At the start of the business, information on pet food was still in the developmental stage, and the market was filled with a lot of "sloppy" information, which was also the reality. For example, a magazine at the time also stated that plant-based fats were not easy to oxidise and were good for health. It was also not uncommon for the backing of high-quality food products imported from overseas to have various ingredients written on them, but incorrectly translated into Japanese. From such experiences, POCHI developed a unique culture of investigating on its own and not accepting goods as commodities unless they were accepted, and this culture continues to this day!

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to help out Samyak Baid in an offline sales exhibition of his product- "The Core Wellbeing Nutritional Topper" which is a part of his start up Pawsible Foods. This exhibition was held at Taj MG Road, Bengaluru. Here is a little something about Pawsible Foods: Pawsible Foods is a Singapore based startup that is transforming mushroom waste into nutrient-rich pet food. The process transforms these overlooked mushroom waste into Myco- ingredients, which become sustainable and nutrient-rich components for pet food. Pawsible's products are more than just vegetarian substitutes. They are designed to provide pets with the essential nutrients they need while emulating the taste and aroma that pets love. This dual advantage caters to pets' dietary needs while also addressing ethical and environmental concerns tied to traditional pet food production. Coming back to my experience - The entire exhibition and me being a part of it was very impromptu and unexpected. I was just supposed to go and meet him but before you know it, I was helping him engage with potentiaI customers and sell the product. I honestly did not expect to have so much fun and didn't even realise where 4 hours had passed. The highlights for me were definitely engaging in conversations with customers about their furry companions, understanding their concerns while also getting an idea about the emerging industry trends. It's funny when you see pet parents take more precautions about the food given to their pets more than their own children. Overall, this experience was more than just selling pet food; it was about fostering connections and learning. While most associate sales skills with closing deals and hitting targets, their benefits extend far beyond the realm of traditional sales roles. Whether you're an entrepreneur pitching your idea or someone navigating personal relationships, developing sales skills can empower you in surprising ways. Sales and Marketing is an art- a life skill. it's not just about selling products or services. They are a valuable toolset that can enhance your communication, build stronger relationships, boost your confidence, and equip you to navigate life's challenges more effectively. Whether you're in sales or not, investing time in developing your sales skills will SURELY reap unexpected benefits. I have known Samyak since we were kids and to see him grow and have his own startup fills me with nothing but pride and happiness. I wish him the best of luck in his journey and I am sure he's going to reach great heights and achieve something crazy. And also, if he ever needs someone to fill up a spot at his stall, he can be sure to hit me up.🐾🐾 #dogfood #business #sales #marketing #experiencematters #bangalore #singapore
