Pricing Review – SPR April 2012

Channel SPR Request Performance

BOOK PRICE? COMPETITIVE? Many of the sales today are not willing to try the book price because they lack faith in the pricing. We also tend to feed this view by; –Giving special pricing on requests with small qty or where no competitive information was provided. –When sales ask what price is reasonable with no information from the customer on competitor etc and we dont refer them to the book price. –When we allow for discounting on our existing price structure without proper market/profit analysis. The quickest way to get them to change the perception is for YOU to believe in your pricing and for them to have some wins with the current book price level.
