Topic: Market penetration


In the News (Wed 8 Oct 08)

  
  Penetration pricing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Penetration pricing is the pricing technique of setting a relatively low initial entry price, a price that is often lower than the eventual market price.
Penetration pricing is most commonly associated with a marketing objective of increasing market share or sales volume, rather than short term profit maximization.
An interesting variant of the price penetration strategy is the bait and hook model (also called the razor and blades business model) in which an initial product is sold at a very low price but subsequently purchased products (such as refills) are sold at a higher price.

 Carotenoids, player awarded for market penetration
Market research company Frost & Sullivan says that carotenoids, still used primarily as a colouring agent for the food and feed industries, have only been widely used in supplements in Germany.
Consumers in other European regions are unaware of their use as a food fortifier or as a new ingredient in a supplement, shows the new report, and this low level of public awareness about the health benefits of carotenoids is expected to stifle market growth in the short term.
The supplements and fortified foods segment is poised to become the fastest growing segment of the carotenoids market, growing from 18.2 per cent of the overall segment in 2003 to 27.0 per cent in 2010, making it the second largest revenue generator behind animal feed.

 Scott Wiltamuth's C# blog : .NET Framework penetration   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Early on, there was a lot of concern about how quickly we could get broad distribution of the framework so that application developers could reduce or eliminate the need to redistribute it with their applications.
My informal market research reveals that there are presently very few applications of that kind that require the.NET Framework.
I believe that the main reason for this is the perception that.NET does not have good penetration onto ordinary users' desktops, and is difficult to install from an application's setup procedure.

 Market Penetration Assumptions and Methodologies   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
First, we have experience with up to 40 green pricing programs, and there is no evidence that the market penetration (or participation rate) is affected by price within the range you contemplate (premiums of $2-$10 per month).
But the market response is to use existing renewables at least initially because retail marketers have to move quickly when markets open to competition, and it takes time to build new capacity.
I suspect this market is smaller for all technologies excpet for PV, which may be larger because the premiums for PV will rule it out of some green power prograsm.

 Forecasting PV Market Penetration
Towards this end, it first undertakes a detailed bottom-up analysis of two market segments that are appropriate for PV applications in five European countries.
The analysis suggests that already today there are opportunities for PV diffusion in many islands of the Mediterranean region, which may trigger sufficient scale-economies to render the technology competitive in larger markets.
The results also show that the diffusion process could be dramatically accelerated through the implementation of carbon-tax policies that support initial penetration.

There are going to be many obstacles to customers switching, especially in the early years, and there is likely to be lots of inertia in the market, as there was in switching long-distance telephone service.
I think the marketer estimates of penetration are likely to be optimistic.
I just can't imagine marketers having a problem differentiating their products from portfolio standards that are a small fraction of 50%, especially in the early years.

 US - Proof of Market Penetration
Schell and Kampeter, Inc., the Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit held that a trademark owner need not prove actual market penetration in a geographic area to recover an infringer's profits under Section 35(a) of the Lanham Act.
The Eighth Circuit disagreed with the lower court's determination that, due to lack of actual market penetration, MPB was not entitled to an accounting of profits as a matter of law.
The Eighth Circuit observed that an accounting of profits "may be appropriate to remedy a registered owner's actual loss, or to deter a willful bad faith infringer, despite the absence of direct competition...." Moreover, ownership of a federal trademark registration affords the owner the right to protection nationwide.

For these products, your future market share as well as your profits are determined by your product's availability to the home user.
