We are now officially in the era of first party data, whether that's through collecting email, address, phone number, taking a quiz and getting skin type and body shape from your customer, or perhaps in the case of this episode, there's search and search intent.

If you're thinking about how to improve your store and your business, you need to be thinking about pricing. Not just racing to the bottom, but how to actually optimize your prices to be fair and profitable. So I want you to sit back and relax and let's go on a journey to The Future of Ecommerce.

Supply and Demand are the fundamental forces of all transactions, yet how well do merchants really understand their own price elasticity? This episode explores the power behind years of your store data, just sitting there, waiting to be turned into pricing insights with the magic of a one click install from a tool called PriceStack.

I'm genuinely blown away by the tool and how it can create a pricing model for not just one product, but how might price changes on one product effect sales of other products, or discounts and promotions you should offer, etc.

Stop leaving money on the table and listen to this episode on the future of pricing for Ecommerce.
