Challenges for luminaire manufacturers
The lighting industry is facing a number of obstacles that affect both its market position and companies' growth opportunities.
Lack of differentiation leads to margin erosion.
Interchangeable products intensify competition.
Product copies undermine the brand identity.
Price wars are eroding profit margins.
Multi-level distribution hinders growth.
High dependence on wholesalers limits direct customer interaction.
Lighting planners and architects make the purchasing decisions.
Intensive field sales via wholesalers dominate the sales strategies.
Pricing is the easiest way to achieve profitable sales growth.
More income through modern pricing strategies
Optimal pricing is a key factor for business success and is often seen as the easiest way to achieve profitable sales growth. We work with you to evaluate innovative pricing strategies that are specifically designed to increase margins while increasing the perceived added value for customers.
The strategies of MORGEN strategies can be seamlessly integrated into your existing business model and aim to optimize both short-term profits and long-term market opportunities. We use proven methods based on thorough market analysis and customer understanding to ensure that our pricing strategies are not only competitive but also sustainable.
Value-based pricing
In the lighting industry, value-based pricing enables margins to be improved and customer loyalty to be strengthened. This strategy is based on the perceived value of the products by customers rather than just the manufacturing costs. By emphasizing unique product features such as design, functionality and technological innovations, a company can clearly stand out from the competition and sustainably increase its business success.
The path to the price determines the value!
Although price is often the last element that customers see, how you get there has a decisive influence on their willingness to pay. This process includes targeted positioning, effective marketing and clear communication that emphasizes the specific value to the target audience. Careful crafting of these elements is critical to increasing perceived value and ultimately successfully driving higher prices in the marketplace.

Light as a service business models
The "Light as a Service" (LaaS) model is transforming the lighting industry by offering lighting as an ongoing service rather than a one-off product purchase. This enables companies to use the latest technology without having to make a high initial investment. This model includes installation, maintenance and energy efficiency optimization. Customers benefit from continuous upgrades and manufacturers secure recurring revenues and the opportunity to establish sustainable business relationships.
Usage-based pricing
Usage-based pricing offers the lighting industry a flexible method of adjusting costs to customers' actual consumption. This model takes into account not only the purchase price, but also the intensity and duration of use of the lighting systems. Customers therefore only pay for what they actually use, resulting in a fair price structure and potentially lower overall costs. The advantage for manufacturers is that they can use detailed usage data to better tailor their products and services to customer needs.
AfterSales Services & maintenance contracts
After-sales services and maintenance contracts are essential in the lighting industry to ensure long-term customer relationships and recurring revenues. These contracts include regular maintenance, repairs and predictive maintenance, which predicts and prevents failures. Remote service options also enable fast remote troubleshooting, increase operational reliability and optimize system performance. Customers benefit from reliability and continuous support, while manufacturers consolidate their market position and differentiate themselves through outstanding service.
Target group-specific price models
Target group-specific pricing models enable finely tuned pricing in the lighting industry that addresses the specific needs and expectations of different customer segments. This strategy helps manufacturers to optimally position offers by developing customized price structures for each target group. Such models promote customer satisfaction and loyalty by maximizing perceived value while improving market penetration. Manufacturers can thus respond effectively to market changes and strengthen their competitiveness.
