5.0 out of 5 stars All the theory of pricing in one book 11 Oct 2009
Format:Hardcover
Having implemented pricing tools and best practice into an organization, this books takes you through all the theory of pricing and tells you about the levers that you can push and pull to get every cent into the price of a product or service to give a win-win situation for you and your customer. The application of the theory is a little difficult and there are better books to show you this, but if you are looking for a comprehensive account of pricing theory then this is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book shows how pricing decisions should be made 4 Aug 2006
By Marian Burk Wood - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Exhibit 1-3 on page 9 of this new edition identifies three guiding principles of strategic pricing: (1) it must be value-based, which puts customers' perceptions at the heart of the process; (2) it must be profit-driven, a vital element for any business; and (3) it must be proactive--meaning marketers should not simply react to competitors' pricing moves.

As simple as this may sound, it's actually tricky to accomplish all three unless you follow the principles in this compact but detailed text.

If you need to know how to calculate breakeven sales volumes, cost factors, and channel pricing, this is the book for you. Exhibit 7-1 (on page 126) is particularly helpful for determining how to manage the price-setting process. I recommend this text for any executive who wants to avoid the "throw a dart" method of pricing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great reference on value-based. Wish it had more on setting initial price. 16 Jun 2008
By Don V - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I updated from the 2nd edition I bought years ago. I'm glad to see the focus on value-based pricing. I was a little disappointed that it gets a bit repetitive on calculating price changes and it would be useful to see more examples on calculating the initial price when you really don't have much data to go on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good reference, but only need to read the first few chapters 18 Jan 2010
By E. Anderson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The author does a good job of establishing a framework for thinking about pricing in the first chapter of the book, then expands on that framework over the first few chapters. Like most business books, however, the deeper into the book you get the less valuable it becomes. Definitely worth buying, but you'll get 90% of the value from the first few chapters
