Apresentação

PRICING FOR IMPROVED PROFITS: STRATEGIES AND TACTICS

In 3 days you will be given practical tools and frameworks for setting the right competitive price for products and services to optimise profits. Pricing principles are reinforced through case studies, requiring participants to solve numerical pricing challenges. You will learn to recognise pricing issues and develop successful pricing strategies for existing markets, or to incorporate pricing into the development of new products and services. Participants will work through practical examples in a wide range of industries on how pricing is integral to the performance and behaviours of the wider organisation. This will provide a strong basis for improving the way your organisation thinks about pricing in its approach to marketing, sales and innovation – and how these parts of the organisation can work together to achieve high performance.
