Customer-oriented price management not only helps with price determination, but is also a solid basis for decisions in offer development, communication and sales. The results can add value in many places in the company. Our final conclusion on the 5 recommendations for price management: customer-oriented price management enables security in decision-making, systematic learning over time and greater opportunities for differentiation in competition.
