Pricing Automation

Ensuring your pricing is always on point

Automate your pricing strategy using predefined pricing rules, to ensure your pricing is always competitive and maximising profit margin.

Current Price $126.95

Suggested Price

$126.95 $126.95 $90.25 $92.66 $90.25

Step 1

Existing pricing

ShopGrok pulls your latest pricing either from your website, e-commerce platform or a data feed that you provide.

Current Price = $126.95

Step 2

Product Filter

Focus the pricing rule to a specific set of products.

Filter on all Flea, Tick & Worm Treatments

Suggested Price = $126.95

Step 3

Competitor Benchmark

Choose which competitors to benchmark against for the purposes of this pricing rule, and the relative price differential.

Match to the Cheapest of the PetStop and PetLand, plus 5%

Suggested Price = $90.25

Step 4

Floor price

Set a floor price to guard against selling below cost price or a specified minimum gross margin.

Minimum Floor Price = Cost + 5% margin

Suggested Price = $92.66

Step 5

Smoothing and Rounding

Benchmark to real-time market prices for timeliness or to a smoothed average for reduced volatility.
Apply rounding rules to ensure pricing meets psychological just-below price endings, or ‘clean’ round-dollar values.

Benchmark to minimum price of last 3 days, round up to nearest 99c

Suggested Price = $90.25

Effortless integration with your chosen e-commerce platform

We sync with all major e-commerce platforms, or to your own custom API, to make real-time pricing a breeze.
Choose complete automation or add an approval step for prices recommended by the ShopGrok Pricing Automation Engine before activating price changes.

We can also help you optimise your Google Merchant Feed spend by increasing the spend on your most price-competitive products each day.

Execute your pricing strategy flawlessly in real time

Your pricing strategy will not be ‘one-size-fits-all’:

Key value items (KVIs) drive price/value perception for customers and should always be within a competitive tolerance
Exclusive or less elastic products may be priced higher to drive margin.
Growth categories where increased market share is the objective may require you to beat the market on price.

Whatever your strategy, we ensure flawless execution. Predefine different pricing rules for different product groups within your range.

Tailor your pricing rules with ease

Define rules on entire categories, product groups or even single SKUs.
Benchmark to a specific % tolerance above or below a particular competitor
Set floor prices to ensure you never sell below an acceptable margin
Apply smoothing to remove erratic price movements
Apply clean rounding or psychological “just-below” price endings
