Abstract

This paper is a follow up of the ESSA paper presented by us last year. In this paper we focus on the efficacy of dynamic responses - in particular a price-cut - to a decrease in sales. We observe that dynamic pricing strategies, which respond to market shares, increase the survival rates of products. Moreover we show that a faster response to a decrease in sales results in a larger market share and a lower occurrence of price-cuts. The implications of how such simulation tools can be used in practice are being discussed.
