The company should offer alarm fog at reasonable price in order to cater larger market, thereby preventing thefts and robbers, also ensures safe business operations. To increase profit returns, it should find efficient price level, thus applying low price than competitors (Martin, 2015). Under the placement choice, the company should target both commercial and residential customers living in urban areas rather than limiting its product to residential use, due to the fact that significant number of customers of alarm fog resides in urban areas. Though the police response time is not an issue but individuals living in urban areas will be more willing to spend. As they are more concerned regarding their safety and protection compare to individuals living in rural areas.
