Recommendation
Pricing is more than a numbers game: Pricing models shape businesses and markets, and have ripple effects across societies. Boston Consulting Group partners Jean-Manuel Izaret and Arnab Sinha make the case for approaching pricing strategically, looking beyond value extraction and zero-sum assumptions. Viewing pricing as an opportunity to share value with customers, the authors describe seven pricing models – or “games” – defining how that value gets shared and, in turn, how companies acquire and retain customers. The book includes interesting accounts of how major players like Tesla and Amazon have shaped their industries by adopting innovative pricing models.
