Characteristics of B2B demand
Derived demand
The demand for a good or service that
results from the demand for another good
or service. When the construction of new
homes rise, so too does the demand for
the materials used in the new properties as
well as demand for labour.
Chain of derived demand
Price Elasticity
A change in price causes a bigger % change in demand
A product is price elastic when an increase in prices results in a fall in demand.
E-bikes battery → When the prices increase with 20%, but the demand for e-bikes is
nevertheless increasing with 50%. This is special!
Price Inelasticity
A change in price causes a smaller % change in demand because there are few alternatives.
If price of petrol falls 30%, the demand for petrol only increases 10%, because there are
alternatives. When the price of a loaf of bread rises 10%, the same % will still buy it.
Joint Demand
Demand for product or services is interdependent on each other. When the price for fuel
lowers, more cars will be bought. When the fuel-prices rise, less cars will be bought.
