#499: Pricing Table Topics: Ace of Diamonds – Value-based Pricing is a Goal and an Attitude

This one is the Ace of Diamonds from the Impact Pricing card deck. 

Value-based pricing truly is a never ending journey. Think about what it means. It means we’re going to charge what a customer is willing to pay. But you can’t read your customer’s mind. You have no idea exactly how much someone’s willing to pay you. And so we can make decisions inside our company to get us closer and closer to that number.

We can do experiments. We can do interviews. We can, by the way, sell more value, communicate value better, increase that willingness to pay. And so everything we do should be focused on how much is that customer willing to pay. But because we can’t read their mind, we can’t be perfect. And if we can’t be perfect, that means we can always get better.

“Consider value-based pricing as an attitude, it’s the goal.”

– Mark Stiving

My recommendation is don’t pretend that we have value-based pricing done. Consider value-based pricing as an attitude, it’s the goal. It’s the journey that we’re on to get better and better at capturing more of the value we deliver to our customers.

We hope you enjoyed this example of Pricing Table Topics. What you just heard was done without a script. If you want to get better at speaking about pricing and value, grab a deck of our Impact Pricing cards, pick a card, read the saying, and then talk for one to two minutes about what that card says. You’ll become a better speaker and expert.
