Do Customers Have More Visibility into Your Pricing Than You?
Sept. 8, 2016
PROS Webinar – Media Alert
WHAT: According to the Simon-Kucher & Partners 2016 Global Pricing Study, profits are set to decline by 0.7 percentage points this year. Two-thirds of the surveyed companies believe they’ll be able to counteract this pressure through the development of new products. However, today’s environment of increased pricing transparency means that buyers hold the cards in contract negotiations and are slow to see differentiated value. Without a price strategy focused on capturing innovation value – and purpose-built tools to support that strategy – companies will leave money on the table in every negotiation and run the risk of accelerated commoditization.
Medical technology manufacturer Hologic found new ways to empower its sales team to capitalize on their innovation investments through the use of advanced micro-segmentation and pricing-focused analytics. Join PROS and Hologic to learn how you too can stop leaving money on the table:
- Make customer, deal and product-level metrics readily available.
- Stay ahead of changing market conditions.
- Enable better deal decision-making.
This is the second of four webinars in the “Only the Pricing Proficient Survive” series, focused on helping technology companies realize their revenue and profit potential in today’s challenging market.
WHO: Join PROS and its guest speakers:
- Jeremy Pifer, Pricing Director, Hologic
- Craig Zawada, Chief Visionary Officer, PROS
