Inhaltsangabe

Build pricing decisions on evidence, not guesswork. This book brings together the core disciplines behind profitable pricing, from cost structure analysis and margin targets to customer value, market benchmarks, discount control, and operational governance. It is designed for professionals who need a practical framework for setting prices that hold up in finance reviews, sales negotiations, and competitive markets.

The chapters move from fundamentals to execution, showing how price affects revenue, contribution margin, and operating profit, then explaining how to translate cost behavior into usable floors and targets. Readers will learn how to separate fixed, variable, and overhead-driven costs, apply activity-based costing where it improves accuracy, and avoid common distortions that weaken unit economics.

What the book covers

• Markup and margin pricing, with clear conversions and target-setting methods.
• Break-even thinking and minimum acceptable prices for different products and segments.
• Pricing data models, net price measurement, discount waterfalls, and margin waterfalls.
• Customer value analysis, willingness to pay, and segment-based pricing logic.
• Competitive benchmarking, market ceilings, and channel effects on observed prices.
• Deal economics, approval guardrails, and techniques for reducing discount leakage.
• Scenario analysis and price-response thinking to estimate profit impact before making changes.
• Operational implementation, dashboards, governance, audit trails, and ongoing controls.

Why it stands out is the way it connects cost based pricing to real market conditions. Instead of treating cost, value, and competition as separate topics, the book shows how to combine them into a pricing range that is defensible and commercially realistic. That makes it especially useful for pricing managers, finance teams, product leaders, sales operations, and analysts who need to justify decisions with numbers and business logic.

Practical case studies at the end of the book show how to reprice product lines, correct discount erosion, structure bundles, set price floors for key accounts, and build repeatable workflows from analysis to execution. The result is a clear, usable playbook for improving profitability while keeping pricing consistent, transparent, and manageable across the business.
