Hey Product Hunters! 👋 Pricing is one of the most profitable marketing levers out there. It’s also one of the least optimized. Most people use 30+ year old techniques or, worse, their ‘gut feeling’. That leaves plenty of money on the table. 🎓 Turning science into practical recommendations Last year, I launched Ariyh here on Product Hunt: A newsletter that summarizes the latest scientific studies into 3-min practical marketing recommendations. Since then, 9,058 marketers have joined and we’ve covered 120+ studies. You can check them all out here at no cost -> 3min practical insights 📘 Ariyh Playbooks The amount of recommendations can be overwhelming. So - by popular demand - I’ve started a series of Playbooks by area (e.g. Pricing, Ad creatives). This is the first one 🙌 Each Playbook takes the latest science on the topic and makes it even more actionable and to the point, with more examples, step-by-step tools, and research not covered in the newsletter. 📈 What’s in the Playbook of Pricing & Promotions 1) When to use rounded ($20), just-below ($19.99), or precise ($22.37) prices most profitably 2) 14 easy-to-apply techniques to boost sales of full-price or promoted products 3) Step-by-step guide to survey your audience to find your most profitable price point 📖 The Science You can analyze the research papers yourself in scientific journals such as the Journal of Marketing or Marketing Science (and should, if there’s one you’re deep diving into). But unless you are someone who reviews the 10,000+ marketing studies published each year, buys each one for $30+, and knows how to interpret academic research - you will have never heard of most of these techniques. The research papers in this Playbook alone would cost you $600+ Special launch price of only $18 for 48 hours. After that, it will go up 94% to $35. Apply it to your business and boost your revenue (if you don’t see a boost I’ll refund you). Hope you’ll love it, Thomas

Luís Otávio Ribeiro
@thomas_mckinlay1 Do you have any insights about marketplace pricing aka take rate?
Thomas McKinlay
@luisofribeiro Hey Luís - good question. No, research about that's not in there yet (I thought it was a little too niche to cover that at this stage), but I might add it in the future. Thanks for the suggestion :)
Aditya Sheth
I read almost every email Thomas puts out via Ariyh. This ebook is all his best content in one neat package. Honestly, didn't even think twice before picking this up. Can't wait to dig in!

I've been reading @thomas_mckinlay1 since August of 2020. In that time he's introduced me to countless tools and techniques for marketing in a way that's both action oriented and directly links to the evidence. Honestly, I feel slightly mixed about promoting his work because it's like a secret weapon to make me look smart 😂. So of course when he let us know he was writing a book I wanted to support him with and early purchase. If his newsletter is great, his book is fantastic. Clear, concise, easy to read and even easier to reference I devoured it this morning. Please sign me up for the next in the series!
Thomas McKinlay
@joshua_herzig_marx It warms my heart to hear this, really! Thank you so much for the kind words, and so happy you've been with Ariyh from day 1 (before the launch here, when we were just a few hundred people!). Thanks for publicly sharing the secret weapon to help support the launch! 😃

I've been reading Ariyh newsletter for some time, and I can't believe how much it grew over the past months! Couldn't be happier to see this new product you're launching. It just makes so much sense. Congrats on the execution and on the launch!
Thomas McKinlay
@baptiste_ncls Growing bit by bit! So glad to have you along with for the ride Baptiste - and I highly recommend VidJet for most marketers out there (especially ecommerce)
Max Satter
I know this is largely built specifically for marketers - but this truly is a must-read for every early-stage CRO/VP Business Succinct & actionable - thanks Tom!
Thomas McKinlay
@max_g_satter 100% thanks for clarifying that, you're right. Glad you enjoyed it Max!!
Diego Ortega
Congrats!
Jonathan Taylor
Congrats on the launch! Pricing is tricky -- but relying on gut-feel isn't the right approach. Definitely think lots of folks will benefit from this!
Thomas McKinlay
@jonathan_taylor3 Exactly, there's was too much value left on the table by going 'by gut-feel'. This should help a lot people out there! Thanks for your support Jonathan!!
Harry Dry

Zain Anwar
I have been enjoying the weekly newsletter from Ariyh and actually using the tips and tricks in my daily business. But this… this is a game changer! A playbook is exactly what I needed. Thank you Thomas for providing us with this amazing product. This product is more becoming like my Amazon account. Business is so much more easy than before and I don’t have to browse the internet anymore looking for marketing tips. I always just come to Ariyh and it always has an answer for me. Thank you.
