Sales reps can review and use the target, stretch, and floor recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_is_Deal_Price_Guidance_Important\"><\/span>Why is Deal Price Guidance Important?\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ability to provide sales teams the right price guidance for their deals at the right time is key to improved win rates and faster cycle times, better negotiations, and overall customer experience.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies often treat their customers with a \u201cone-size-fits-all\u201d approach or potentially take one attribute, often revenue, as the factor deciding a target price. Sales reps then have a set amount of autonomy to discount and negotiate. The downside is that companies who are similar in company revenue and even in the same industry are paying very different prices for the same purchase. Is there a business reason for this? If there is not then proper, business-priority focused pricing guidance is key to profitability and higher win rates.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image mb-4\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-1024x666.png\" alt=\"Diagram Illustrating The Concept of Deal Price Guidance\" class=\"wp-image-51932\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-1024x666.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image-768x500.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/image.png 1148w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Price guidance should come from the top to establish and communicate processes to the price-setters and sales teams.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<section id=\"block_99900\" class=\"block block--centered-text is-bg--blue-30 is-text--white is-top--md is-bottom--md\"><div class=\"cont pos-rel z-5 is-default is-headline--center is-body--center\"><div class=\"centered-text__inner rte\"><h2 class=\"half-text__headline\">Realize greater profitability, gain a competitive edge, and win more deals with Deal Price Optimizer.<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"cta-container\">\r\n        <a class=\"btn btn--primary is--green-blue-G\" href=\"https:\/\/www.vendavo.com\/de\/?page_id=54366\">Learn More<\/a>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\r\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Deal_Price_Guidance\"><\/span>Benefits of Deal Price Guidance:\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Capture customer willingness-to-pay. <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2017\/01\/how-customers-perceive-a-price-is-as-important-as-the-price-itself\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Segmentation<\/a> is driven by and can vary from customer to customer, from product to product, and in all the locations where they use your product.
