  • Organizations can use value propositions to position value to a range of constituents such as:

• Competition Based on Value

  • Value-based marketing allows organizations to create and sustain differentiating values that enable them to compete within their markets.
  • Value is thus subjective (i.e., a function of consumers' estimation) and relational (i.e., both benefits and cost must be positive values).

• Cultural Values

  • Core values are slow and difficult to change.
  • Secondary values also exist in any culture.

  • Value is measured in terms of a customer's willingness to pay for a product, and often depends more upon the customer's perception of a product's worth rather than its intrinsic value.
  • Many factors affect value, including the customer's cost to change or implement the new product or service and the customer's cost for not selecting a competitor's product or service.

• Other Inputs to Pricing Decisions

  • Marketers can also study this effect on their products using Economic Value for the Customer (EVC).
  • EVC is based on the insight that a customer will buy a product only if its value to them outweighs the value of the closest alternative.
  • The utility of a product depends on its value to the customer minus its price.
  • This suggests that the differentiation value relative to the closest competitive offering is $6,000.
  • Add the reference price and differentiation values together to get EVC

• Culture

  • There are generally three components of a culture: beliefs, values, and customs.
  • Values are general statements that guide behavior and influence beliefs.
  • The function of a value system is to help a person choose between alternatives in everyday life.
  • Since different cultures have different values, they will have different buying habits.
