Customers Aren't Looking for Cheap. They're Looking for Value for Money.
The psychology of price, the sociology of value and the new commercial order of the changing consumer.

Marketing Strategy
Context
Price is the number written on the tag. Value is the judgement the customer makes in their mind after seeing that number.
Imagine a customer walking through the door of a store.
They pick up a product.
They examine it.
They look at the price tag.
And they put it back.
The sales consultant's first comment is usually the same:
“They found it expensive.”
But is that really true?
Did the customer put the product back because they did not have the money to buy it?
Or because the product could not justify the value in their mind?
I think this is one of the questions brands should think about most.
Because being expensive and being perceived as expensive are not the same thing.
And in the changing consumer behaviour of 2026, this distinction is becoming far more important.
Analysis
1. Price sensitivity is turning into a search for value
According to Deloitte's 2026 Global Retail Industry Outlook, roughly four in ten consumers in the US take a deal-seeking or price-sensitive approach.
However, one of the striking findings of the research is that a significant part of how people perceive brand value is related to factors other than price.
Product quality, customer service, ease of shopping and interaction with employees are among them.
Of course, it would not be right to apply consumer research from the US directly to Turkey.
But there is a universal behaviour here worth thinking about.
When consumers spend their money, they want to be sure their choice is meaningful and justified.
Sometimes this means a low price.
Sometimes high quality.
Sometimes trust.
And sometimes a brand experience that makes them feel good.
So price sensitivity and the search for value should not be confused.
2. Value is formed not inside the product, but in the customer's mind
You can calculate the production cost of a perfume.
You can determine the bottle, the box, the essence, the logistics and the selling expenses.
You can reach a selling price by adding your target profit margin on top.
But this calculation does not answer one question:
Why should the customer want to pay that price for this product?
Because commercial price and perceived value are different concepts.
Price is the monetary consideration the company asks from the customer.
Value is how meaningful the customer finds paying that consideration.
This is where the brand's real struggle begins.
There can be a serious price difference between two products with similar functions in the same category.
Not all of that difference comes from technical features.
The perception of quality, reliability, prestige, experience and belonging formed in the consumer's mind also affects the purchase decision.
That is why I find it incomplete to evaluate strong brand management only through the logo, advertising or campaign design.
Brand management is the discipline of building the product's value in the customer's mind.
In Depth
3. Discounting is the easiest but riskiest way to communicate value
What does a company do when sales fall?
Most often, it lowers prices.
It launches a campaign.
It offers a discount on the second product.
It hands out coupons.
These are the right commercial tools under certain conditions.
But constant discounting can, over time, teach the customer a very dangerous behaviour:
Don't buy at full price. Wait. A discount will come anyway.
In this way, the company does not just lower the product's price.
It also risks pulling down the price level the customer is willing to pay for the product.
This can become a more pronounced strategic problem, especially for upper-mid segment and premium brands.
Because premium positioning is not just setting a high price.
It is having a consistent value system that supports that price.
Product development, packaging, store design, service quality, employee behaviour, communication language and the after-sales experience are all parts of this system.
A premium brand may be strong in all of these elements.
But constantly resorting to price cuts can weaken the value architecture it has built in the customer's mind.
The problem is not that discounts are offered.
It is that the discount becomes the brand's main reason to buy.
4. Not every customer buys the same value
One of the mistakes companies often make is trying to persuade all customers with the same value proposition.
Yet different customers have different reasons for buying.
For one customer, durability matters.
For another, ease of use.
For another, what the product means in their social circle.
And for another, being able to reach someone after the sale.
That is why it is not enough for companies to define their value propositions only by age, gender or income group.
They also need to understand purchase motivation.
For example, in the same perfume category we may encounter four different customer behaviours.
The first customer looks for an economical product suited to daily use.
The second focuses on longevity and performance.
The third looks for originality and personal style.
The fourth cares about the presentation of a gift product and the impression it makes.
Trying to reach all of these customers with the same communication, the same product presentation and the same sales approach creates commercial inefficiency.
The right approach is to understand customers' different value expectations and develop the category architecture accordingly.
5. Premiumisation is not raising the product's price
Today, premiumisation is among the strategic goals of many companies.
But how premiumisation will happen is often not defined clearly enough.
Designing new packaging.
Commissioning higher-quality photographs.
Setting a higher selling price.
These can be tools of premiumisation.
But they are not premiumisation itself.
Premium brand management requires the customer to have a stronger and more consistent experience at every touchpoint.
The scent of the store, the lighting, the way employees speak, the product presentation, post-purchase communication and even how the customer feels when their problem is solved are all part of this experience.
A brand's premium quality is not understood only at the moment of sale.
The real test often begins after the sale.
Because if there is a gap between the promised experience and the experience lived, a high price is not enough to protect brand value.
Premiumisation should be seen not as a pricing project, but as a holistic brand and operations transformation.
Roadmap
6. Why should price architecture be redesigned?
Not every product in a brand's portfolio takes on the same commercial role.
Some products introduce the customer to the brand.
Some grow sales volume.
Some generate profit margin.
And some lift the brand's positioning upward.
That is why it is not enough to evaluate pricing decisions only with a cost-plus-target-margin approach.
A meaningful price hierarchy should be built among the brand's products.
The entry segment can make it easier for the customer to get to know the brand.
The mid segment can form the main sales volume thanks to its balance of price and value.
The upper segment can respond to differentiation, experience and higher value expectations.
But when this structure is built, the customer must be able to genuinely perceive the difference between the segments.
Presenting the same product in different packaging and simply raising its price is not a long-term brand strategy.
As the price the customer pays rises, the value they receive must also differ meaningfully.
Conclusion
7. How is value perception measured?
I do not consider it enough for companies to look only at sales data on this issue.
Because strong sales do not always mean strong value perception.
Especially during intense promotion periods, high sales can hide the brand's true pricing power.
That is why the evaluation should be broader.
The full-price sell-through rate, customers' repeat purchase behaviour, conversion performance outside campaigns, product reviews, reasons for returns and how demand reacts to price changes should be examined together.
For example, a dramatic drop in sales when a discount is removed may indicate that the brand's value proposition needs to be re-evaluated.
Of course, brand perception is not the only reason for this.
Competition, purchasing power, seasonality and product availability must also be taken into account.
What matters is being able to read the customer behaviour behind the sales figure correctly.
A company knows how much it sells.
A strong commercial organisation also tries to understand why the customer buys.
8. The new competition: not being the cheapest, but justifying your price
I believe brands that can offer the right value proposition to different customer segments will have the advantage in the coming period.
The source of this advantage will not be product quality alone.
Reliability, accessibility, experience, after-sales service and consistent brand communication will gain importance together.
Especially in highly competitive categories such as cosmetics, fashion, home and retail, companies need to ask themselves this question:
“Why should the customer pay more for our product than for our competitor's — or the same amount?”
If the answer consists only of product features, the brand may not be sufficiently differentiated.
If the answer consists only of discounts, the company may have become dependent on price competition.
A strong answer should bring together the product's functional benefit with the experience the customer lives and the trust they feel in the brand.
Final word
Trying to explain consumer behaviour only with economic indicators is an incomplete approach.
People do not make purely mathematical decisions when they buy products.
They reward themselves.
They want to feel safe.
They want to belong to a group.
They express themselves.
Sometimes they meet their needs, sometimes their desires.
That is why pricing strategy and consumer sociology cannot be thought of separately.
The task of brands is not only to create products that can be bought.
It is to create values that customers find meaningful to buy.
Because:
Price is the number written on the tag.
Value is the judgement the customer makes in their mind after seeing that number.
And the real struggle in commerce is being able to change that judgement.
