Does your organization struggle with reactive pricing and inconsistent quoting processes? Are you hampered by revenue and margin leakage because you can’t keep up with market changes?  Do you miss out on opportunities because you can‘t respond to quotes quickly enough?  Or, does the market and competition define your pricing strategy instead of you exerting influence on the market? If any of these things ring true, there’s no time to waste. Join this workshop with renowned pricing experts Kim Watson and Bill Dudziak to learn how you can begin addressing these pressing pricing problems by driving alignment and efficient execution on a strategic approach to pricing. With Kim and Bill, you’ll prioritize the pricing problems you should be addressing, you’ll determine the best-fit pricing strategies for your business, and you’ll consider how to leverage systems and automation for more effective, agile pricing. 

Attendees will learn:

• How to identify the pricing problems deserving of immediate attention
• The best-fit pricing strategies to start your price improvement journey
• How to move beyond spreadsheets for more agile, strategic pricing
