How Framing Twists the Way Prospects See Your Product

What Is Framing in Marketing?

Framing is how you present information to influence how prospects perceive your product or service. By carefully positioning your pricing, features, and benefits, you shape the context in which customers evaluate your offer.

In short, framing helps you control how your audience sees value, risk, and urgency—making it a powerful lever for growth marketers.

Why Framing Matters for Growth Marketers

Growth marketers rely on experimentation and data-driven insights to improve results. Framing directly impacts your conversion rates, customer acquisition costs, and overall marketing effectiveness.

Effective framing helps you:

• Make pricing feel more attractive and affordable

• Clearly highlight benefits to increase perceived value

• Reduce perceived risk and create urgency to buy

Examples of Effective Framing in Marketing

A classic example of framing is breaking down pricing into smaller units. Instead of saying your product costs £99 per month, frame it as "just £3 per day". This makes the price feel smaller, easier to justify, and more appealing.

Other effective framing techniques include:

• Comparing your price to a higher-priced alternative to make your offer seem more affordable

• Highlighting the cost of not taking action to emphasise urgency and potential loss—leveraging the psychological principle of loss aversion

• Positioning your product as an investment rather than an expense to shift perception towards long-term value

How to Use Framing to Improve Your Marketing Results

To leverage framing effectively, follow a structured approach:

• Identify your audience's reference points: Understand what prospects compare your product against—competitors, alternative solutions, or the cost of doing nothing.

• Test different frames: Experiment with various ways of presenting pricing, features, and benefits. Measure which frames resonate best with your audience.

• Optimise based on data: Track how different frames impact conversion rates, customer acquisition costs, and overall ROI.
