Gabor-Granger

Measure purchase intent at different price points to estimate demand response and pricing sensitivity.

  • Pricing
  • Demand

What it is

Gabor-Granger asks purchase likelihood at a sequence of prices to estimate how demand changes as price changes.

Overview notes

Practical note

This sits in the middle of the pricing toolkit: stronger than pure perception lighter than full conjoint.

Decision guide

When to use it

  • When you need directional demand response by price
  • When the business wants to compare revenue implications across points

When not to use it

  • When multi-feature trade-offs dominate the decision

Inputs required

  • Price ladder
  • Purchase intent measurement approach

Typical outputs

  • Demand curve
  • Revenue curve
Simple example

Test likely conversion response across several monthly subscription prices to find a reasonable commercial range.

Strengths
  • More demand-oriented than price-perception methods
Limitations
  • Still based on stated intent
Common mistakes
  • Ignoring how intent scales map to actual behavior
How I use it in practice

I use it when the team wants a stronger pricing read than Van Westendorp but does not need the full complexity of a conjoint design.

What is outputted
  • Demand and revenue estimates by price
How to interpret the output
  • Look for ranges and trade-offs not a magical optimum
How to communicate to clients
  • Explain the stated-intent limitation clearly
Displayr / Q implementation notes
  • Keep price ordering and skips documented

Add a demand-versus-revenue line chart screenshot later.

Recommended placeholder: chart screenshot, process diagram, output interpretation notes, and one short caption on what to inspect first.
