Pricing is one of the most important, but underestimated tools, to enhance a company's profitability. Especially in the furniture sector, customers place a special interest in cost-efficient products and easy processes. Individualised and sustainable furniture can help to create a unique selling point and deliver real value to the customers. Therefore, a platform to create designs together is needed and can involve several stakeholders in the design and production phase. However, in order to include several stakeholders, the pricing and revenue model need to reflect individual needs and be a benefit to all. In this paper, the initial situation and potential revenue model options will be presented. Furthermore, multiple scenarios for practical use will be discovered and an overview given.
This chapter presents key challenges of digital pricing: selling value propositions, data-driven quantification of value, the design of value-driven pricing models, and the definition of subscription-based price metrics. To structure the pricing for smart-product-service offerings promisingly, a framework with four specific elements has been developed. To address the value propositions properly, this chapter presents four archetypes for offering smart-product-service systems. The chapter concludes by presenting an approach to quantify customer value for digital products and services.
