    Ep 86 | Pricing Transformation is an Evolution, Not a Revolution

    “The patient has to survive the procedure. We have to carry on our operations, serve our clients, send invoices, acquire new customers, while changing our pricing in the background. That's why I always say that pricing change is an evolution, not a revolution.”   Maciej Kraus is a pricing guru, author, TED speaker, and frequent lecturer at Stanford University. We were thrilled to have him on to share his perspective on successfully executing a pricing transformation. Maciej explains that while it’s a must for B2B companies to modernize pricing processes and the underlying technology that supports them, there’s an art to pulling it off.   Hear his prescriptions to pricing excellence, and then register for Zilliant MindShare Europe to see Maciej on stage in Amsterdam in November.    www.zilliant.com

    Ep 84 | How to Shop for a Pricing Solution

    “Behind the term ‘pricing tool’ or ‘pricing software’ you can actually have very different things in mind. A competition monitoring tool, a margin improvement tool, an AI price optimization tool, a sales interface. So the first thing was, can we categorize the use cases that people have in mind behind ‘pricing software’?” Malik Rajan is the founder of The Pricing Club. His mission is to foster a dynamic community of pricing professionals helping each other grow through best practices and thought leadership. As such, his team recently released its first ever Guide to Pricing Software.

    Ep 83 | B2B Sales and Marketing in Harmony (Yes, it can be done!)

    “Well, if the other side just did their job better, we’d be in much better shape.” Any B2B sellers or marketers heard this one before? Maybe you’ve said it? At some point in your career, you’ve likely experienced the tension between sales and marketing, two departments that in theory should always be on the same team.  Our guest today, Aggregate Insights CEO Brady Jensen, explains how the two sides become misaligned, how to prevent or stop the blame game, and what sales-marketing harmony looks like in practice. Brady shared what he’s learned from years of primary source research on how to bridge the contentious gap. Get Aggregate Insights’ free win/loss handbook here.   www.zilliant.com

    Ep 82 | Why Sanitary Products Providers are Ditching the Status Quo & Embracing Value-Based Pricing

    Dr. Rainer Schlamp, partner at EbelHofer Consultants, joins us to dissect an industry that often flies under the radar, but is essential to our everyday lives. The sanitary products industry is a complex and vibrant ecosystem weaving together producers, wholesalers, retail stores, contractors, and web shop consumers.    Often products are bundled and sold together as a total solution to fit architectural design specifications and must be priced as such. Rainer and host Barrett Thompson discuss why value-based pricing is essential in this industry, how to factor value into a solution sale, and the challenges facing commercial leaders charged with setting and updating price in an evolving digital commerce landscape.    Learn more about EbelHofer Consultants here   www.zilliant.com

    Ep 81 | Are You “Transforming” Your Business in Name Only?

    “For me, the strange thing is companies are investing in transformation in all dimensions of their business, but barely in the one that has the biggest profit impact – pricing,” says Sebastian Wrobel, cofounder and managing director of PricingWorks on today’s episode.   Sebastian and host Barrett Thompson explore how smart B2B organizations include pricing transformation in their digital transformation journeys and have a frank discussion on what “transformation” actually means.   “In some companies, what they call ‘transformation’ really isn't a transformation,” says Barrett. “It's more like just a technology upgrade, something more like maintenance, and the bigger promise of transformation isn't really achieved…They ought to be doing better things, not just the same practices embodied in a different tool set.”   Find PricingWorks customer success stories here.   www.zilliant.com

    Ep 80 | Pricing Should Be at the Heart of Your Organization

    Profitability and customer experience are important. That’s about as noncontroversial a statement as you can make in B2B. So, pricing – which is perhaps the biggest driver of both – should be at the heart of every B2B company, right?    “That is quite a controversial statement whenever I make it,” said Karan Sood, pricing expert and today’s guest on B2B Reimagined. “When I show people my spider chart of how pricing is the heart of the organization, some people are very supportive and some people are like, ‘You're smoking something.’ But I do believe pricing is at the heart of the organization.”   Karan and host Barrett Thompson examine the distance between pricing’s theoretical strategic value and the reality - its common lack of organizational influence - through the lens of four pricing paradoxes:   Pricing should be considered first in a new campaign or product launch, but it often comes last. Pricing teams should be forward-looking, but most toil in the past (last quarter’s profitability, what went wrong?). Pricing should lead the organization in data-driven capabilities, but it’s usually one of the last adopters. Pricing should have visibility to the C-suite, but it’s relegated to the back office.   Listen as we diagnose the reasons behind these disconnects and prescribe immediate actions pricing leaders can take to expand their influence, based on real-world examples. www.zilliant.com

    Ep 79 | Why Pricing Transformation isn’t a “Chicken or Egg” Problem

    What should come first: pricing technology or pricing strategy? Our guest today, PwC Partner Ron Otocki, makes a strong case for why the two should go hand-in-hand. Ron leans on his vast experience guiding companies through digital transformations to explain how pricing fits into larger transformative projects, and how the most successful pricing initiatives mix strategy and the right tools from the very start. “When you're in an enterprise environment, it's easy to essentially ask for investment in a tool and say that's going to be the solution. It's much harder to say, ‘Well, I'm going to implement a tool, but I also have to implement a culture change and implement role changes.’ That's the harder stuff, but it’s so critical to have those two go hand-in-hand; otherwise you're only doing 50% of what you need to do.” Listen to learn how to marry strategy with technology in your pricing and digital transformation initiatives.
