Abstract

Zusammenfassung Preisbündelung stellt eine interessante Methode der Preisdifferenzierung dar, die auch in der Investitionsgüterindustrie zunehmend eingesetzt wird. Das kombinierte Anbieten von zwei oder mehreren komplementären Produkten oder Dienstleistungen zu einem günstigeren Gesamtpreis erweist sich in der Praxis sowohl für Anbieter als auch Nachfrager als vorteilhaft. Der vorliegende Artikel geht auf die vielfältigen Anwendungs- und Ausgestaltungsmöglichkeiten der Bündelung ein. Unternehmen sollten angesichts der zusätzlich erzielbaren Gewinn- und Absatzpotenziale jedoch nicht die hohe Komplexität außer Acht lassen, die mit der Konzeption und Ausgestaltung einer Preisbündelung einhergeht und durchaus Risiken birgt. Eine adäquate Informationsbasis bzw. die Kenntnis der kundenseitigen Zahlungsbereitschaften sowie eine Prüfung der juristischen Parameter sind in diesem Zusammenhang unerlässlich. Gleichzeitig sollten sich unternehmen im Klaren sein, dass Bündelung lediglich einen Aspekt im Preismanagement darstellt. Um das volle Potenzial einer Renditesteigerung realisieren zu können, sollte eine fundierte Analyse der Ausgangslage und aller potenziellen Pricing-Maßnahmen durchgeführt werden.
