Executive Roundtable
Outside of our packaged service offerings we also provide professional services that largely revolve around education and training. We teach executive how to use pricing as a strategic lever to improve profitability, increase growth, market share and share holder value. We train Sales people to defend prices, manage price increases and to sell value rather than price.
This service can be customized to meet the unique needs of each company. The roundtable is generally an in house or off site half-day comprehensive review of best practice pricing methods and terminologies and the typical agenda includes:

Price Training For Sales
Training the company’s sales force is critical to the successful implementation of a new pricing strategy. When the sales staff understands the perceived value of a product or service, what drives their marketplaces’ decisions, and when they are trained on the tactics of the sales call, they can better defend the price -- and reduce or eliminate discounting while increasing your sales volume.
