Let's look at the psychology of discounts.

Key takeaways on pricing strategies for small business brands:

💡The Hype of a Good Deal:
People like finding good deals. 
When they do, they tell others, giving free promotion to the brand. 🗣️

💡 Price Comparison Psychology:
People check and compare prices online. 
To stand out, offer good prices and extra benefits. 
Also, have good shipping and return policies. 🚚

💡 Consumer Trends Favor Sales Pricing:
People might spend less soon. 
They're looking for good deals and saving money. 
Offer good discounts to attract these shoppers. 🎯

💡 Ads & Segmentation Can Help You Run Selective Promotional Offers:
Companies know a lot about people now. 
You can use this to show ads to specific audience segments at specific times. 
Special deals make people decide faster. ⏰ 

Brands don't need sales all the time, just at the right times and with a value their target audience will see.
