If customers understand that they're getting more value for their money, they can agree to higher prices without turning toward the competition. It might sound like a tough sell, but when everyone gets involved--marketing, sales, management--finding and expressing that value proposition can become a reality. And at the end of that path lies revenue and profit. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this new edition, updated to reflect current economic realities and the need to raise prices, readers will learn the 10 rules that will help them stay profitable without alienating customers. Among them is the surprising-but-true advice that continual price discounting isn't necessary to retain customers. In fact, if we understand and demonstrate the value of what we're selling, we can actually increase prices, establish healthy profit margins, and enjoy robust revenue growth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf we can stay ahead of the game, we don't have to lose out. \u003ci\u003ePricing with Confidence\u003c\/i\u003e demonstrates that, when everyone in a firm feels 100% confident in the pricing, customers will follow suit. These ten simple and practical rules help senior leaders prepare for inflation, tackle rampant price discounting, negotiate with poker-playing customers, and protect the value a company works so hard to create.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePRAISE FOR \u003ci\u003epricing with confidence\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This book does exactly what it says in its title: It enables you to price with confidence!
