TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES:

  • [00:27] Today’s Topic: Is Cheaper Better?
  • [01:00] Some people say you pay what you get for, but sometimes cheaper is better.
  • [01:30] There is a diamond company that makes the stones in a lab. When they sell them for less, no one wants them. When they sell them for the same price as mined diamonds, they sell out.
  • [02:00] The quality is the same, but the diamonds are made in simulated conditions.
  • [02:28] If two advertising companies charge two different rates, most people will pay the higher rate for a smaller company and more focused attention.
  • [03:05] People often question the quality of something if it’s too low of a price.
  • [03:30] There is no exact science to setting a price point, so do your research and run tests.
  • [04:20] That’s it for today!
