You love selling semi-jewelry, you dedicate yourself to customer service, you pay attention to your choices, but when it comes to setting the price, the question arises: “Am I charging right?”
The truth is that pricing well goes far beyond adding up the costs and posting any value. It's strategy, business vision and, most importantly, what guarantees your profit at the end of the month.
That's why we've prepared a straight-to-the-point guide to help you master the art of pricing. Just follow the steps below.
- Learn how to calculate the costs of your semi-jewelry
First of all, you need to know exactly how much it costs to have each piece on hand. This includes:
- Product cost (the amount you pay for the jewelry);
- Operating costs (such as packaging, transportation, payment fees, advertising);
- Your time and effort (yes, your work has value too).
Write everything down! Strategic pricing starts with complete clarity of your costs.
- Learn how to define your profit margin when selling jewelry
Once you understand the costs, it's time to decide how much you want (or need) to profit.
The ideal margin will depend on your audience, positioning and sales volume. But, in general, in the semi-jewelry market, a margin between 100% and 300% is considered healthy.
Example: If the total cost of a part is R$ 30 and you apply a margin of 200%, the final price will be R$ 90. This means that after paying the costs you will have R$ 60 in gross profit.
- Learn in practice the pricing formula for semi-jewelry
Here is a practical model you can apply:
Final price = (Total cost) x (1 Desired margin)
Do you want to make a profit of 150% on a part that cost R$ 40
Final price = 40 x (1 1.5) = R$ 100
- Study the semi-jewelry market and position yourself
It's not just about how much you can charge, but how much the market will accept to pay. Study your competitors, see how much they charge for similar pieces and position your business according to what sets you apart.
Do you deliver personalized service, exclusive curation or easy installments? All of this adds value. Price is also perception.
- Categorize your jewelry and vary the profit margin
Not every piece needs to have the same margin. You can:
- Work with lower margins on entry-level pieces (to attract new customers);
- Bet on a higher margin on launches or exclusive items, where the perception of value is greater.
This strategy helps you balance turnover and profitability.
- Reevaluate whenever necessary
Exchange rates, suppliers, trends and even the behavior of your audience change. And its price needs to follow!
Review your values periodically and keep your operation profitable and up to date.
Extra tip: value is different from price
The price is on the tag. The value, in the experience you deliver.
Customers who perceive value do not haggle. Therefore, show the difference in your pieces, tell stories, invest in quality images and offer a service that delights.
Ready to price strategically and make more profit? Now you have the right tools to make decisions with confidence and guarantee results.
