Pricing decisions are among the most important and impactful business decisions that a manager can make. How to Price Effectively: A Guide for Managers and Entrepreneurs introduces the value pricing framework, a structured, versatile, and comprehensive method for making good pricing decisions and executing them. The framework weaves together the latest thinking from academic research journals, proven best practices from the leading pricing experts, and ideas from other fields such as medical decision making, consumer behavior, and organizational psychology. The book discusses what a good pricing decision is, which factors you should consider when making one, the role played by each factor-costs, customer value, reference prices, and the value proposition- and how they work together, the importance of price execution, and how to evaluate the success of pricing decisions. You will also be introduced to a set of useful and straightforward tools to implement the value pricing framework, and study many examples and company case studies that illustrate its nuances. The purpose of How to Price Effectively: A Guide for Managers and Entrepreneurs is to provide you with a comprehensive, practical guide to making, executing, and evaluating pricing decisions.

A Groundbreaking Pricing Model for the New Business Landscape Why would any customer choose Brand X over Brand Y, regardless of price? In a word: Value. When customers feel they are getting good value from your product or service, they are more than happy to pay more—which is good news for you and your business. Even in today’s global market—with its aggressive competitors, low-cost commodities, savvy consumers, and intangible digital offerings—you can outsell and outperform the rest using Value-Based Pricing. Done correctly, this method of pricing and selling helps you: Understand your customers’ wants and needs Focus on what makes your company different Quantify your differences and build a value-based strategy Communicate your value directly to your customers Now more than ever, it is essential for you to reexamine the reality of the value you offer customers—and this step-by-step program shows you how. Developed by global consultants Harry Macdivitt and Mike Wilkinson, Value-Based Pricing identifies three basic elements of the Value Triad: revenue gain, cost reduction, and emotional contribution. By delivering these core values to your customers—through marketing, selling, negotiation, and pricing—you can expect an increase in profits, productivity, and consumer goodwill. These are the same value-based strategies used by major companies such as Philips, Alstom, Siemens, and Virgin Mobile. And when it comes to today’s more intangible markets—such as consulting services or digital properties like e-books and music files—these value-based strategies are more important than ever. So forget about your old pricing methods based on costs and competition. Once you know your own value—and how to communicate it to others—everybody profits.

The Digital revolution promises trillions of dollars in created value by 2030. Consultants and researchers are projecting massive and disruptive disruption in entire industrial sectors. As a results, PwC reports in their DigitalIQ report that 73% of executives say that they are investing in internet of things (IoT) and 54% in artificial intelligence. So we are experiencing a deluge of digital investments, programs, and large-scale transformations. Despite this tsunami of activities, many IoT Initiatives stall in the Proof of Concept phase and few are already considered a success. Recently, Siemens revealed that less than a fifth (18%) of surveyed companies analyze more than 60% of production data they collect. In a similar vein, Simon-Kucher & Partners (SKP) reports that 3 out of 4 firms that invested in digitalization in the past 3 years fail in their efforts due to the lack of monetization strategies, the focus on the wrong priorities, the lack of customer intimacy, and the neglect of digital pricing best practices. In fact, only 18% of these firms are true digital heroes. Despite the high level of interest and investments, the reality is that most companies are just getting started. The digital champions are not yet reaping the fruit of their investments. Most companies tend to struggle with the process of designing digital business models, with the development of truly differentiated offers, and with the monetization and pricing of their data-based offers. This book focuses on the topics of data monetization and of the value-based pricing of data-driven offers. The authors introduces a newly-developed practical data monetization roadmap that can be used by digital project teams, incubators, and digital factories to better frame their offers and to apply the principles of value-based pricing. They present options in digital pricing models and practical guidelines on how to deploy them. Readers will learn: The various monetization and value creation models for data-enabled offers The 8 steps of the data monetization framework The best practices in designing differentiated data-enabled offers The value-based pricing of data and options in digital pricing models Business model implications of switching from ownership to consumption model

"The primary theme of Pricing Strategies is that pricing should be guided by the marketing concept, which indicates that success is achieved through a focus on the needs and sensitivities of the customer. This customer-focus theme is evident throughout the text. The author helps to overcome the mathematical anxieties of students with an intuitive approach to understanding basic pricing concepts, and presents mathematical techniques as simply more detailed specifications of these concepts"--Provided by publisher.
