Prices. Too high in the eyes of sales, too low in the eyes of cost accounting. The means of controlling to convince the boss: monthly, quarterly and annual results. The means of sales to convince the boss: joint visits to the customer. And now?
In principle, the solution is simple: differentiation within pricing.
Do you calculate the prices from within the ERP system? Provided with fixed surcharges? And then hand them over to your customer? If so, you´re stuck, that way you can’t get out of the situation.
Pricing, especially for technical products, requires:
Clarity on the price basis used
Knowledge of the customer benefits of individual options
thorough use of pricing history
Knowledge of suitable comparison prices, which are frequently available inhouse
Careful transition from costs to prices
