Price skimming

Price skimming starts with a relatively high introductory price for customers valuing early access or distinctive benefits, then may reduce it to reach a broader market. Its entry logic contrasts with penetration pricing.[1]

Assess whether a new product's advantage is genuinely distinctive and how quickly alternatives may emerge. Newness alone does not make a high price viable. Plan the transition to lower prices and consider remaining inventory and expectations of customers who bought earlier.
