We've covered PriceSentinel Pro's basic monitoring before. Here's the real pricing problem: your product is ¥99. Competitor drops to ¥79. Match and your margin drops from 50% to 32%. Don't match and lose traffic. The answer isn't "match" or "don't" — it's knowing your profit floor.
Three levels of pricing with PriceSentinel:
Level 1 — Monitoring: real-time competitor price tracking with threshold alerts.
Level 2 — Analysis: calculate current margin, post-match margin, and extra sales needed to break even. If matching requires 130% more sales — you probably shouldn't.
Level 3 — Strategy: group products (traffic-drivers can match, profit-cores hold floor, clearance goes below cost). Each group has its own rules.
Small sellers price by guessing. Big sellers price with data, models, and floors. The gap isn't capital — it's profit consciousness. PriceSentinel Pro builds that.
