One such idea (originally coming from a client of ours) is <strong>Price Dynamics chart<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Price Dynamics, a new report introduced in Price2Spy, is a chart that enables clients to see the price increase \/ decrease dynamics over time.This new report will ask you to specify<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Date range<\/strong> &#8211; possible to chose among the periods given or set the wanted date range;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dynamics report type<\/strong> &#8211; price increase \/ decrease and product availability \/ unavailability.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The report is represented by XY coordinates <b>&#8211; Y<\/b>, vertical axis is showing the number of products affected and X, horizontal axis is showing dates. Each site being represented by a colour, the client gets a graphic picture of <strong>the date<\/strong> when a specified <strong>price \/ availability change <\/strong>occurred for a specific <b>number<\/b> of products on which <strong>competitor <\/strong>site.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why is that important?<\/strong> Depending on your business, there could be a number of reasons:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Not only does it show changes that occurred on competitors\u2019 sites, but it also shows important <strong>dates of price changes<\/strong>. Clients get a clear idea of whether the competitor changes prices at frequent intervals or chooses particular time of the week or month to do so.<\/li>\n<li>Price change dynamics report enables online store owners to track <strong>dates of availability changes<\/strong> at their competitors as well. This feature is of particular importance for clients wanting to know whether a competitor had sudden \u2018bursts\u2019 on demand for some products, so the competitor went from several items in stock to unavailable. Or after quite some time of being unavailable, an item becomes available. Is it back in trend, so the competitor decided to have it back in offer?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.price2spy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/pdynamics.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-311\" alt=\"pdynamics\" src=\"https:\/\/www.price2spy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/pdynamics-1024x357.png\" width=\"584\" height=\"203\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The image above shows price decrease for 4 competitors within 2 weeks. To help you understand the chart we are going to analyze the competitor represented by orange line.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The beginning of the chart shows that the competitor had made quite some changes on Mar-7 &#8211; 27 price drops.<\/li>\n<li>The period from Mar-8 to Mar-13 could be called a calm, steady period with only up to 6 changes.<\/li>\n<li>Mar-13 is when price drops start to grow in number &#8211; only to culminate on Mar-14 (15 price drops) after which a steady period comes along again &#8211; until Mar-20 &#8211; a date with over 30 price drops.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What we can conclude is the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The competitor does not change prices in bulks daily, but more or less weekly or even once in two weeks.<\/li>\n<li>There were some minor price drops for just a few products in the meanwhile, but major price changes occurred just twice in 2 weeks according to the chart.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Different clients find their ways to monitor trends at their competitors\u2019 sites, and each of them focuses on particular group of products \/ prices \/ brand, etc. What Price2Spy does is make it easy and simple for them to spot changes occurring within their field of interest. And that is only possible if communicating with clients \u00a0and striving to meet their needs.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully you&#8217;ll like this new chart.
