The e-Commerce industry is currently involved in a highly competitive environment. In large marketplaces such as Amazon or Google Shopping, among others, they need to become the best competitor to stand out from the rest. This makes the use of repricing tools, which help merchants to monitor and adjust their prices automatically (dynamic pricing), almost mandatory for the success of the business. If you want to know what repricing is, why it affects you and how Boardfy can help you increase your sales, keep reading because this post will interest you.
What is repricing and how does it affect you?
In e-commerce, “repricing” is the set of actions and strategies that are carried out to make an automatic price adjustment, in order to be competitive at all times. Monitoring and readjusting the price of each product manually, in all the platforms where the online shop has a presence, is almost impossible to do if the e-commerce product catalogue is moderately important. Therefore, if you are a retailer, using a good repricing software will help you to have a better control of your catalogue, to know at all times the prices of your competitors and to set an intelligent pricing strategy that will allow you to optimise your sales. And if it’s also the fastest, like Boardfy, success is almost guaranteed!
Do I need repricing software?
If you have an e-commerce and you ask us, the answer is: YES. As long as you have a catalogue of products with a minimum profit margin that allows you to make a return on your investment. Although we can already tell you that this requirement is easy to meet. Why do we think it is relevant? Relying on a price monitoring and dynamic pricing tool such as Boardfy will allow you to:
- Monitor and compare your competitors’ prices.
- Create an effective pricing strategy.
- Automate price increases and decreases according to the strategy set to have competitive prices on as many products as possible.
- Optimise your feed to invest only in your most competitive products in real time.
Find out in which items you have no competition in order to increase your margins. And the most important thing: if you don’t do it but your competitors do, you will never be able to overperform them.
When to reprice?
Applying repricing strategies will be vital whenever you sell your products on marketplaces where, due to their high competitiveness, price is the key factor to get the sale. For example, to obtain the Amazon Buy Box. Becoming the featured option on a marketplace is synonymous with an exponential increase in your turnover: around 80% of sales are made this way. Many customers will buy your product without comparing you with others. But to achieve this, having the best price is one of the most important requirements. How can you do this if you don’t keep track of all your competitors and don’t monitor prices in real time? Difficult, very difficult. Not to say, almost impossible. Moreover, to be the best competitor, it is not enough to monitor your competitors’ prices. You need to be able to compare them and extract crucial information to be able to define a good pricing strategy that allows you to besurpass them. And you need these actions to be done quickly and automatically.
