“RIGHT” PRICE

By AGENCE ENTRE NOUS.

At AGENCE ENTRE NOUS., we believe pricing is not just a number, it’s a narrative.

Two T-shirts.
One costs €9.
The other, €90.
Both are fairly priced. Both are intentional.

So why the difference?

It’s not just the material.
It’s what the price communicates about identity, intention, and the experience behind the brand.

The €90 T-shirt vs. the €9 T-shirt

• The €90 T-shirt is made in Portugal. It’s folded with care, wrapped in tissue, and sold in a calm, curated boutique.
• The €9 version? Mass-produced. Stackable. Driven by urgency.

They both serve the same function.
But they mean completely different things.

That’s the role of pricing in branding:
It positions.
It signals.
It shapes expectations before the customer ever touches the product.

Luxury and the Power of Perception

Luxury brands can charge €150 or more for the same cotton.

But they’re not selling fabric.
They’re selling heritage, scarcity, symbolism, and status.

The price reflects identity. And the brand supports that price through discipline, experience, and clarity.

When a Price Feels Too Cheap

Pricing too low might seem like a safe start, especially for new businesses.
But in reality, it often communicates:

• Uncertainty about value
• A model based on volume that can’t scale
• An audience mismatch
• A lack of intention

And worst of all, it invites doubt.

If the price feels too low, people don’t think:
“That’s a great deal.”
They think:
“What’s wrong with it?”

When a Price Feels Too High

High pricing isn’t the issue.
The issue is when high pricing feels unsupported.

If your website is clunky, your communication unclear, or your customer experience inconsistent, then even a fair price starts to feel unjustified.

That’s not just a sales problem.
It’s a brand problem.

The Best Price Is the One That Aligns

There is no universal “right” price.
But there is a price that aligns:

• With your positioning
• With your audience’s expectations
• With the quality and values you stand for

Because a strong price doesn’t need to explain itself.
It matches the experience.

“Pricing is not a math problem. It’s a positioning tool.”
— Blair Enns, Win Without Pitching
