Sebastian Glosemeyer
Consulting Manager
Price - often overlooked, but surprisingly powerful. It's the most important element of the marketing mix for growth and profitability. Inspiring organizations and helping them to get a clear view on their pricing strategy energizes me. What is ‘value’ in the eyes of the customer? How do you translate this into a successful value-based pricing strategy? And how do you successfully implement this strategy within your organization? The final touch of pricing: communicating price in a smart way by using pricing psychology.
