getting those prices fine tuned takes some time but its worth the effort. It pays to analyse the figures that any software produces so that you reach a point where you are happy that your getting the right figures every time.
I doubt you have a lot of competition up there in the Highlands - always an advantage when it comes to setting prices - but it makes it difficult to make comparisons. My advice would always be to monitor customer feedback - worst thing a customer can say to me is that my prices are very reasonable. I don't mind that they take a sharp intake of breath - as long as they still make the purchase - getting to the happy medium of not too expensive - not too cheap takes time and lots of little adjustments.
I suspect that I am one of the few Est users to have the postcode software installed - if I was just starting with Est it would be there from day 1. My reasoning is very simple and it will have a lot of relevance to your business. If you know where your customers live you can use that information. I know that a lot of my business comes from certain areas and that tells me that I need to advertise or leaflet drop in the areas where I don't get to see customers. It also means that I have all the information I need to chase up customers - or just send them a tempting offer - gather that information from day 1.
