Companies examine the market and look at the way certain products are performing. This is how they determine if a product is going to be included in their own product lines or services that they offer. This is also how they decide if they are going to continue to produce a particular product.Businesses also look at market conditions in terms of competitor performance and pricing in order to set their own success measures. This is why you will see many businesses producing similar products and pricing those products very similarly as well.Businesses that are well established with easily recognizable names are often the ones to set the standard prices within the market.

Packaging also refers to your people and how they dress and groom. It refers to your offices, your waiting rooms, your brochures, your correspondence and every single visual element about your company. Everything counts. Everything helps or hurts. Everything affects your customer's confidence about dealing with you.As a result, every salesperson was required to look like a professional in every respect. Every element of their clothing-including dark suits, dark ties, white shirts, conservative hairstyles, shined shoes, clean fingernails-and every other feature gaveoff the message of professionalism and competence.
