How do we talk about Pricing?

Pricing can be a challenging and awkward topic.

Overpricing your product may cause a negative reaction from the market — losing customers. While underpricing your product will sell yourself short and make you look like you haven’t prepared enough.

*Flips Table after thinking for too hard*

Most SAAS businesses price their software through a subscription based model that ranges between $5 to $15 per user each month.

The differentiating factor in their pricing? Hardly any!

What’s DayOne pricing model?

That brings us to today’s point. How did we come out with the DayOne pricing model.

After much research, we identified that most business model are priced at similar range.

Netflix subscription cost about $13 per month and their favourite competitor Disney, cost about $12 per month. $1 difference, WOW that’s a huge difference (obviously sarcastic here).

What this comparison means is that if we decide to adopt a subscription based business model, our pricing will not differ much from competitors.

To be differentiated (in terms of pricing), the team decided to price the DayOne App more like a “product” and not like any other softwares services — pay once use for ever. (Woohoo, trouble time)

Remember the last time you bought a chair or maybe a table. You only had to pay once at the counter and then you can bring it home to use for the rest of your life.

It’s totally a relief right? No need to bind your credit card or worry about recurring payments.
