Thumbnail
February 16, 2012 from 6:30pm to 9pm

To be strategic, companies should develop pricing strategies based on the “value” of the product instead of product cost or closing short term sales.  To be effective, the value-based pricing process needs to be implemented early in the product cycle as it affects product feature implementation, sales channel selection, and marketing communications/promotions.  We’ll go through examples and exercises to see how this all…See More

Hi Scott,

Thanks!  I do work with Peter, though in different groups (he's in marketing/sales analytics, and I work in BI).  I hadn't heard about the Consortium prior to a friend forwarding the invite.  I'm hoping to make it out next Thursday if possible.

Regards!

Sid

Welcome to the PMC, Scott!
Please use this community to connect, share, participate, and learn.
As a member of the PMC Advisory Board, I would love your feedback on how we could better meet your needs.
Also, it would be great if you would upload a profile photo. When our members have faces, they seem more like members of a community and less like static lifeless web pages.
Thank you!
~Dave

Hi Scott, and welcome to the PMC online community!

I'm also from a tech background, but loving the whole Product Management thing.

Let me know if you have any questions about the PMC or this site, and don't hold back on posting comments, events, etc. This site is definitely driven by its members.

Trevor
