Welcome, welcome to the best five minute wine podcast with Forrest Galley.
00:19
Because this is our final segment with Claire, we went out with a little game, true or false
00:23
or both on the psychology of pricing, starting with wine.
00:27
Because of course we did.
00:29
People are more likely to buy a product priced at $9.99 than $10, even though the difference
00:38
Higher price always means higher quality.
00:42
If two identical wines are priced differently, people often rate the more expensive one as
00:51
Limited time offers are usually based on real scarcity.
00:58
Discounts make people feel like they're saving money, even if the original price was inflated.
01:05
Most consumers make fully rational, logical buying decisions.
01:11
Is that a big false or just a little false?
01:16
I don't think there's any gradients on that, but free shipping can increase sales more
01:21
than lowering the product price.
01:24
I would agree with that, yeah.
01:26
Seeing a higher priced option first can make the next option feel like a better deal.
01:32
Price has no effect on how your brain experiences taste.
01:36
You said that one in the Stanford theory in that test.
01:40
Businesses spend a lot of time on pricing strategy than most customers really realize.
01:46
I wish they do, but they don't.
01:52
You really came through on this.
01:56
Thank you, Forrest.
01:59
You got them all right.
02:01
I have to say, we came for the wine psychology and stayed for the pricing masterclass.
02:10
Very good job, Claire.
02:11
I've learned so many things in our discussion, especially the number on the label is doing
02:16
a lot more work than I've actually thought about.
02:20
And you've got something big coming down the road.
02:23
Take it away as we close out the show.
02:24
Thank you very much for being a guest.
02:26
I have a book coming up in September.
02:30
It's called The Price of Influence.
02:33
It is a book talking about how to get a yes to anything you want.
02:38
And it can be selling a bottle of wine or pitching a great idea to your boss, asking
02:43
for a promotion or asking for a pay increase.
02:47
The secret is how do a pricer approach this.
02:52
So if you want to know how a pricer would do that, well, follow me on LinkedIn or my
02:59
