[Chicago, 7 April 2004]
The PPS Spring Conference is the largest pricing conference
event of the year. PPS has a sterling reputation for providing the latest
information and resources to pricing professionals. Our spring conference
is just one example. Pricing is certainly on a Roll—and has been
now for the past few years! We have never seen the attention level so
elevated as we have experienced in the past 2 years. All in all, this
Spring Pricing conference is the one place where you can also win big
as “Pricing Continues On Its Roll”.
Smart businesses use price differences to capture higher
profits from customers who value the offer the most. These price differences
are determined through strategic pricing mechanisms, and tactical price
adjustments. Using real examples from B2B markets of differential pricing
mechanisms, Tim will discuss peer company best practices.
He will show you how strategic deployment of price differentials helps:
- Determine better pricing approaches to capture
value
- Adjust specific prices based upon the business value
gained by specific customers
- Create sales incentives which reinforce positive tactical
pricing
