What this question tests

General business knowledge of go-to-market and pricing strategy applied to a specific real company example.

How to approach it

  1. Pick one clear example rather than trying to cover Amazon broadly, e.g. Amazon's Subscribe & Save pricing strategy.
  2. Describe the mechanism, discounted recurring pricing in exchange for predictable, locked-in purchase behavior.
  3. Explain the strategic intent, increasing customer lifetime value and Prime stickiness rather than just discounting.
  4. Note the tradeoff Amazon accepts, lower per-unit margin in exchange for predictable demand and reduced acquisition cost.
  5. Connect it to a measurable outcome, repeat purchase rate and reduced churn among subscribed customers.
  6. State what you would confirm if this were a real interview scenario, which specific product line the question is about.
