摘要:A key decision faced by multi-channel retailers is whether to charge the same price online and offline. This decision is challenging since consumers are increasingly multi-rooming as they may search offline and then purchase online (showrooming) or the other way around (webrooming). Moreover, compared to a monopoly market, we note that consumers’ behavior is more complicated in a competitive environment with two multi-channel retailers. In this talk, we analyze the uniform vs dual pricing decision for a multi-channel retailer in a monopoly environment and in a competitive environment, respectively. The analysis takes into considerations: (1) consumers’ uncertainty about digital and nondigital product attributes, (2) consumers’ costs of showrooming as well as webrooming, (3) the prevalence of costly product return, and (4) consumers’ heterogeneous brand preferences. We show that uniform pricing can outperform dual pricing with a price lower than the online/offline prices of dual pricing in both monopoly and competitive environments. We have also identified the driving forces of pricing strategies for multi-channel retailers.
