Dueling Spreadsheets Return
Remember the joke that: "We lose 100$ on every unit we ship. So we make it up on volume."
Call this the "dueling spreadsheet" syndrome where there are multiple interpretations among various departments as to the best pricing model. Because, groups understands their part of the issue better than other groups, and may underappreciate where another group better understands its niche.
This is not to say that one pricing model fits all but rather the pricing model(s) used should reflect appropriate assumptions and logic about cost, profit, the market and target customer profiles.
When companies resolve this issue, they normally need an in-depth version of:
- An independent review of the major dueling spreadsheet underlying assumptions and insights;
- Looking at those assumptions with no political bias or need to repay past support or working relationships, and
- Reconsidering the assumptions based upon what often is a new overall strategic plan or resource availability.
The reassembled pricing model or key assumptions usually borrows pieces from each of the major proponents and adds some elements which always bubble up with a fresh set of eyes. Or maybe a completely different look, like this one. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Whichever works best for your organization at this point in time can help you benefit from putting the pieces of your pricing model back together for better results than you had yesterday.
Again, what do you think, are you hearing etc.?
