Key Takeaways:
“Pricing, ultimately, is always a subset of business strategy, of your company goals. So, you've got to be clear. You got to know where you want to get to. Otherwise, you'll end up floundering with your pricing.” – Mark Peacock
“Product and price are two sides of the same coin. When I buy products for a price, I want to know what I get as a customer and equally as a seller, you need to know everything that's included in your product offering.” – Mark Peacock
“Without changing the pricing, you can achieve an effective increase in prices of 4% by changing how you present the prices. And I think this whole question of how we present pricing is just as important as ‘What's the number? What's the strategy?’ Because it makes such a difference.” – Mark Peacock
“Having a clearly written pricing policy is such an important thing. And I literally say in my book, ‘Write it down’. And it doesn't have to be long, it doesn't have to be complicated.” – Mark Peacock
