Imagine navigating the complex terrain of pricing strategies with none other than Karan Sood of Rakuten Kobo, a virtuoso of sales operations. We peel back the layers of traditional cost-based models and reveal the intricate dance of value-driven pricing. As Karan recounts tales from his time in the automotive trenches, where static pricing was a missed opportunity, we're reminded that the price tag hanging off products isn't just a number—it's a story of market life cycles and competitive choreography.
With case studies in hand and compensation models flipped on their heads, Karan breaks down the metamorphosis of pricing, and how value communication is the game-changing strategy that keeps the cash registers ringing. As we gaze into the crystal ball of pricing's future, Karan and I dissect the up-and-coming world of outcome-based models—where tech payments are entwined with measurable results, thanks to the surgical precision of AI.
