Pricing Isn’t the Reason You Lost

Pragmatic Live Chat

“When they say you lost on price, that’s not a good enough answer. You have to peel the onion. You have to do the work to uncover the real answer”
– Spencer Dent

In this episode of Pragmatic Live, Rebecca Kalogeris, VP of marketing for Pragmatic Institute, interviews Spencer Dent, Co-Founder of Clozd—a leading provider of technology and services for win-loss analysis.

They Discuss

  • How the pricing structure or model can affect customer’s value perceptions (For example, large one-time payments may seem riskier to new customers than smaller monthly payments)
  • Why transparency in pricing can help win more buyers
  • Why the concept “people buy, not companies” should inform selling strategies
