Round Price Impact Analysis in France Simulator Tool

Problem :

The marketing team lacked visibility into how round price thresholds (e.g., €1.99 vs €2.00) influenced sales volume. The pricing model didn’t account for psychological price sensitivity.

Solution :

Three years of historical sales data was analyzed to group sales performance across different round price buckets. A script was developed to calculate the most beneficial rounded prices and their associated volume impacts, excluding promo weeks for accuracy.

Outcome :

The marketing team could now simulate pricing based on round price thresholds, gaining valuable input for promotional pricing strategies and maximizing profit potential for both Mars and retailers.
