In this episode of Unpack Pricing, Sam Lee, VP of Pricing Strategy and Product Operations at Hubspot and former Snowflake pricing leader shares his deep expertise in building and scaling pricing teams. He joins host Scott Woody to explore why pricing “is a sledgehammer, not a scalpel” in business strategy.
Sam discusses why pricing is inherently challenging as a multidisciplinary domain, shares insights from Snowflake's successful consumption-based pricing strategy, and explores how AI is reshaping traditional pricing models. He also offers insights into the future of AI-driven business models, suggesting a shift where data exchange between companies and customers could fundamentally alter commercial relationships in software.
