12 "invisible" route to raise prices Yes, 12 of the 46 evaluation strategies in this book are route you can raise prices -- without customers even as noticing it.
See, evaluation isn't all logic.
Our brains are set up to notice several things in our environment and not others -- even as once they're right in front of us.
For example, you've probably already detected that galore merchants cost at $9.99 instead of $10. Those who have tested the two prices have found that they can increase orders 5-15% by dropping that penny.
Is this logical? Should a penny difference in cost cause 10% much folk to buy the product? No way.
Proof: Try ever changing your cost from $9.99 to $9.98 and see if you get 10% much buyers! (Hint: I've tested those two exact prices and there was no difference in buyers.)
Now... suppose your current cost is $9.98. Or $9.90. And suppose you raised it to $9.99. Or suppose your cost was $88 and you raised it to $89.
Would your customers notice the difference? Probably not.
