Synopsis

Pricing--for any company in any industry--is far and away the most sensitive profit lever available. Still, few companies or managers execute pricing well, and most regularly miss valuable opportunities.

Whether testing the techniques and knowledge gained from reading The Price Advantage or supplementing personal knowledge in the field, this companion workbook is essential.

The Price Advantage Workbook is a comprehensive and insightful self-study guide that eases the understanding of the three levels of pricing from the broad industry view through product/market strategy to day-by-day transaction management. Hard-hitting questions demonstrate why superb pricing strategy is critical for business success and profitability and explain state-of-the-art approaches to analyzing and improving pricing for any product or service.

With a focus on translating pricing theory into real improvements and bottom-line performance, this workbook will help you improve your understanding of pricing concepts and strategy and give you a competitive advantage in any economy.
