Have you ever wondered if there's a better way to run your creative business - one that feels less exhausting and more aligned with who you truly are? After speaking with hundreds of you creative entrepreneurs out there, in many different fields, I've noticed a very common thread: the most successful creative businesses aren't built on following industry rules or pushing through limitations. They're built around the owner's natural strengths. In this episode, I'm very excitingly unveiling a new comprehensive support system I've been developing behind the scenes to help creative business owners uncover their unique strengths and turn them into a profitable business that's authentically yours.   Key Moments: [00:00] Introduction to finding out what I have been pouring my heart into for the last 12 months [01:58] Reflection on last week's concept of building a business around your exceptional strengths [04:36] The common challenges faced by creative entrepreneurs who aren't aligned with their strengths [06:29] My personal journey from kitchen table to seven-figure creative business [10:38] Introduction to the three-tier support system launching in 2025 [11:02] 1.

"Most business advice starts with strategies, tactics, or one-size-fits-all blueprints. But I've seen time and again that these approaches often fail creative entrepreneurs."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's Journal Post Last week's Episode:  Finding Your Exceptional Strength: The Key To An Unstoppable Creative Business Handbook: The Value Pop Handbook  Program: The Bright Line Program  Program: The Colour Lab Program Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: news@philippacraddock.com   Share Your Insights: I would genuinely love to hear your thoughts on this episode and the upcoming programes.

Change Management: Your Secret Weapon in Value-Based Pricing with Paolo De Angeli

Paolo De Angeli is currently leading the Customer Experience and Customer Value Management teams at Borealis AG. He has a strong background and passion for Customer Value, from Value Creation to Value Based Pricing. In this episode, Paolo shares the importance of persistence for pricing practitioners, encouraging them to confidently share their insights even when facing resistance. He highlights that pricing is not just about numbers but also about effective change management and influencing senior leaders. By staying committed and focusing on both soft skills and strategy, pricing professionals can drive impactful results.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Gain actionable strategies for understanding customer needs, framing value propositions, and making data-driven pricing decisions. Dive into valuable lessons on building strong supplier-customer relationships. Learn how pricing is as much about effective communication and influencing as it is about numbers, with tips on navigating resistance.   “If you are a pricing practitioner, you spend time learning, investing. Maybe like I did, taking some certification like the Professional Pricing Society, or you've been involved in the network. You are entitled to share your opinions.” - Paolo De Angeli   Topics Covered: 01:47 - How he found himself in pricing and what made him embrace it 03:45 - Reflecting on the evolution of the pricing profession 05:32 - Articulating the strategic reasoning behind his role as Head of Customer Experience and Customer Value Management 09:09 - Explaining how customer experience and customer value management are interconnected within a continuous commercial operations cycle 14:28 - Emphasizing the importance of having more customer value conversations, highlighting that customers are generally receptive to it 15:33 - Explaining how companies often fear customer value conversations due to the risk of their assumptions being challenged 20:08 - What process he employs when customers suggest improvements 22:05 - The importance of leading value discussions and identifying and addressing specific KPIs that matter to the customer to demonstrate value 25:20 - Highlighting the need to understand the customer's needs before discussing KPIs 27:11 - Why you need to look beyond customer feature requests to uncover the underlying problems 28:56 - How effective value management benefits both the supplier and the customer, creating a win-win scenario 30:13 - Paolo's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: “Everything that we do internally, when we challenge our value proposition, and we try to understand where our differential value is, comes not only from our internal perception but also and above all from what our customers are telling us.” - Paolo De Angeli “Companies are afraid that customers will not talk, will not share, and will destroy these hypotheses and negotiate on price. And the solution for this is to build a relationship that is more going in the direction of partnership than a transaction with your customers.” - Paolo De Angeli “If we want to simplify two main applications for customer value management, one is when you launch a new solution in the market, you need to have a differential value, a compelling value proposition, so that you need to be convincing both internally and externally and explain why anyone in the world should be interested in buying from you this new solution and not an existing one.” - Paolo De Angeli “Managing expectations is the most important thing, it's not because they ask for something that they will get it, but it's, I think that what we owe our customers is to listen to them. Have a conversation on why certain things are possible and others are not, and then have a joint collaboration on what's possible.” - Paolo De Angeli “Before understanding the KPIs, we need to understand their [customers] needs. We need to understand what their problems are.” - Paolo De Angeli “It's important to agree on the KPIs, but what matters is, to understand what their[customers] problems are and help them understand the profit equation.” - Paolo De Angeli   People/Resources Mentioned: Professional Pricing Society: https://www.pricingsociety.com/ European Pricing Platform: https://www.pricingplatform.com/about-epp Syngenta: https://www.syngenta.com/   Connect with Paolo De Angeli: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paolo-de-angeli-cpp-b232b85/   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Mark Herring is a passionate marketing leader with strong technical roots and deep knowledge of how to market cloud and enterprise software to open-source developers and DevOps audiences. He is the Chief Marketing Officer at HiveMQ. In this episode, Mark shares his approach to cold outreach, explaining why leading with recognizable brands before introducing value creates engagement. He explores effective email strategies, emphasizing the power of short, curiosity-driven messages over long, detailed pitches. He also discusses pricing from the buyer's perspective, highlighting how perceived value—rather than just function—drives purchasing decisions.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn proven strategies for grabbing attention in cold calls and emails, using brand credibility and psychological triggers like FOMO. Discover how to price based on what buyers truly value, rather than just cost or features, using real-life analogies. Get practical tips on structuring sales conversations to keep prospects engaged without sounding like a typical salesperson.   “Try and understand the value in the eyes of your buyer. I think far too many times as vendors, we think there's intrinsic value because it costs us much to produce or we think it looks like that. It's trying to understand from a buying perspective, what is the value you're providing.” - Mark Herring   Topics Covered: 01:29 - How his journey from development to product marketing led him to pricing 03:41 - How his early pricing research focused on how customers would use a product rather than explicitly asking about the problem it solved 04:59 -  To what is the short tenure of CMOs in B2B and consumer goods attributed to 06:25 - Explaining what a pipeline is and how pipeline generation involves value demonstration 10:38 - Comparing pipeline to running a marathon, emphasizing that while MQLs and SQLs are useful stepping stones, the ultimate goal is generating real sales opportunities 12:02 - Differentiating a pipeline from a SQL 14:18 - Demonstrating how a successful cold outreach combines multiple touchpoints 18:57 - How to make prospects more receptive in a cold call  21:13 - Why he uses big brand names as conversation openers in cold calls rather than starting with a value statement 22:27 - What an effective cold email should be 24:42 - Highlighting  the importance of A/B testing cold emails and continuously refining outreach strategies to improve open rates 25:55 - Mark's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: “It's cold because you've never had the interaction, but usually they've interacted somewhere with you. It's like they might have seen you at an event, or they might have seen some of your outreach to you already and going, ‘Okay, I'll give this guy a bone.'” - Mark Herring “One of the sales guys was talking about this [cold calls] at the conference we were at together, and I just loved it. And he is like, ‘Don't over research, because there's never a good time to know everything.' Because you got to keep on dialing.” - Mark Herring “You can't stop doing it [cold outreach] because it's like getting dice and trying to get the six, the more you throw it, the better chance you're going to get to the six.” - Mark Herring “I lead [cold call] with brands, not with value. And when you do that type of thing, they're then shocked going, ‘Oh, he didn't do a sales pitch on me. He's asking me about these companies. Well, maybe it is something interesting.'” - Mark Herring   People/Resources Mentioned: FedX: https://www.fedex.com/en-us/home.html UPS: https://www.ups.com/us/en/home   Connect with Mark Herring: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/herringmark/ Email: mark.herring@hivemq.com   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Daniel Cho has over 29 years of experience in the healthcare industry, currently serving as the Senior Director of Global Pricing at Philips Healthcare. With a background in sales, product management, and pricing strategy, Daniel has a unique perspective on how to effectively communicate value to customers and drive profitability. In this episode, Daniel shares his journey into pricing and the critical importance of understanding the value your product delivers to customers. He emphasizes that pricing should not just be about features but about the economic, operational, emotional, clinical, and societal value that resonates with different stakeholders. Through real-world examples, Daniel illustrates how a well-structured pricing strategy can lead to stronger, more profitable relationships.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Discover the five key value drivers that can transform your pricing strategy and enhance customer relationships. Learn how to effectively communicate value to different stakeholders within a healthcare organization, from CFOs to clinical staff. Gain insights into structuring contracts and pricing metrics that align with customer needs and perceptions of value.   “Resist on the discount as much as possible. Look for every other ways to solve it rather than the discount. The discount should always be a last resort and not the first thing you want to deliver or give.” – Daniel Cho   Topics Covered: 02:33 - Daniel's journey into pricing 03:23 - The power of pricing strategy, using segmentation and perceived value to differentiate identical products for distinct markets 06:58 -  How two identical products can be integrated differently with existing pricing ecosystems 07:57 - Leveraging his expertise in data analysis to establish Philips' first pricing department 12:11 - Initiating a value-based approach at Philips to create, price, and articulate value 14:22 - Defining value and discussing the 5 key value drivers in a health organization 18:03 - Tailoring value propositions and demonstrating how those four other value streams ultimately lead to financial and strategic benefits 25:22 - An effective sales training Daniel created that teaches salespeople to tailor value-based pitches to different stakeholders' priorities 31:27 - Daniel's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: “We cannot continue to sell features and benefits, we have to go and sell value.” - Daniel Cho “If the product is not value-based, you can't ask the salespeople to sell value because you have to start from the product that actually deliver and generate value. So, we started from the product managers.” - Daniel Cho “The first one is economic value. Very simple. Help me to make more revenue or help me to save costs so I have an economic benefit.” - Daniel Cho “The next value is the emotional value. How can we create a better experience for the patients and also their own staff so the staff don't get burnout.” - Daniel Cho “Financial value, although as strong as it is, doesn't resonate with everyone.” - Daniel Cho “Stop giving discounts for free. Always get something back from the customer.” - Daniel Cho   People/Resources Mentioned: Philips Healthcare: https://www.philips.com/ Apple Watch Launch: https://www.apple.com/ Bausch and Lomb Contact Lens Case: https://www.bausch.com/   Connect with Daniel Cho: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielkkcho/   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Steven Forth is Ibbaka's Co-Founder, CEO, and Partner. Ibbaka is a strategic pricing advisory firm. He was CEO of LeveragePoint Innovations Inc., a SaaS business. In this episode, Steven emphasizes the importance of shaping willingness to pay by understanding and communicating real value to customers. He also highlights the role of AI and context-driven pricing in adapting to customer needs dynamically, stressing that consistent delivery and documentation of promised value are crucial for long-term retention.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Explore the nuances of pricing strategies, distinguishing between perceived, real, and proven value and how each impacts customer retention and willingness to pay. Learn why documenting value delivered to customers can significantly reduce churn, with actionable steps to demonstrate value in B2B sales. Gain insights on Context-Driven Pricing, offering a fresh approach to optimize pricing in real time.   "You need to make sure that the value you promise in sales is the value that you deliver and that you can document that value. Because if you don't do that, you're going to struggle with renewals." - Steven Forth   Topics Covered: 02:09 - Why Steven believes that value-based pricing and willingness to pay are distinct, with value coming first shaping willingness to pay 06:19 - How techniques from behavioral economics, like anchoring, actually impact value perception rather than solely increasing willingness to pay 07:12 - Acknowledging Mark's example of using "good-better-best" as a framing strategy but argues that it's more than just a "trick" 10:40 - Introducing his concept of generative pricing, which leverages generative AI to dynamically adjust product configurations and prices based on each buyer's context 12:35 - Steven emphasizes the need for a clear value model rather than solely relying on AI-driven willingness-to-pay estimates 14:49 - Highlights how value is not only unique to each customer but also varies over time for the same customer 17:05 - Underscoring that willingness to pay is actively shaped by how a company communicates and delivers value 18:34 - Emphasizes the need for a value model in pricing, contrasting it with software approaches like revenue management that estimate willingness to pay without actively shaping it 20:37 - Explaining why B2B pricing cannot rely on traditional price elasticity curves 21:36 - Steven's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: "Willingness to pay is an outcome that you shape. It's not something that is given to you by something outside of your product and how you sell it, and that you play a huge role in defining the context." - Steven Forth "We want people to pay a fair amount of money. If I can trick someone into paying more than something's valuable, greater than its actual value, and value in this case means the economic return they're going to get, I don't think I've done myself a service in the long term." - Steven Forth   People/Resources Mentioned: Pros: https://pros.com Pricefx: https://www.pricefx.com Zilliant: https://zilliant.com Vendavo: https://www.vendavo.com Tom Nagle: https://impactpricing.com/podcast/604-insights-into-value-based-pricing-strategies-for-b2b-with-tom-nagle/ Barret Thompson: https://impactpricing.com/?s=barrett+thompson B.F.

In this powerful episode, we dive into a transformative approach to client relationships that will change the way you do business, going beyond the surface to tackle some of the most pressing challenges entrepreneurs face today — especially those who want to maintain high standards, protect their boundaries, and ensure they're working with clients who truly value what they bring to the table.We explore the concept of making your clients audition for the privilege of working with you, much like contestants on American Idol. This isn't about playing hard to get; it's about setting clear boundaries, commanding confidence, and ensuring that the clients you take on are aligned with your values, vision, and the level of service you provide.In this episode, I discuss:Auditioning Your Clients: Just like in American Idol, not everyone makes it to the next round. I'll teach you how to audition your clients, guiding you on principles to help them either self-eliminate or clearly identify themselves as strong potential candidates.Creating Demand Generation: Discover how to generate strong demand for your services, making clients eager to work with you. When done right, this approach flips the script, positioning you as the sought-after expert who clients are vying to work with.Combating Scope Creep: Learn how to protect your time and resources by setting firm boundaries from the start, ensuring that your projects stay within scope and that you're compensated fairly for any additional work.Setting Boundaries and Expectations as an Empath: As someone who genuinely cares about others (and I'm sure you do in your business), it can be challenging to enforce boundaries. I'll share strategies to balance empathy with the necessity of maintaining your professional integrity.Commanding Confidence in the Discovery Phase: The initial discovery phase is crucial for establishing authority and setting the tone for the entire client relationship. I'll guide you on how to exude confidence and control during this critical stage.Mastering Value-Based Pricing: Discover how to shift the focus from cost to value, ensuring that clients understand and appreciate the worth of your services. I'll share techniques for implementing value-based pricing that aligns with the results you deliver, helping you command higher fees while maintaining client satisfaction.Maintaining High-Profit Margins: Learn strategies to keep your profit margins high without compromising on the quality of your work. We'll discuss how to structure your offerings and negotiations to ensure you're paid what you deserve, allowing you to focus on delivering excellence.Removing Objections with Confidence: Objections can derail a conversation and undermine the perceived value of your services. I'll guide you on addressing and removing objections preemptively, creating an environment where clients see you as the essential bridge to achieving their goals. By removing the air out of the room, you'll keep the focus on the vision and the transformative impact of working with you.Eliminating Budget Concerns: Learn how to remove budget from the equation by shifting the conversation to value. I'll show you how to guide clients to see the worth of your services, allowing you to command the rates you deserve while keeping your profit margins high.By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear roadmap for elevating your business relationships, protecting your time and energy, and ensuring that the clients you work with are a perfect fit for your services.

“I realize there's this massive disconnect in the business model whereby you've got governments and health insurers paying billions and billions of dollars for what might be a not very effective therapy, and then there's all these potential cures, even, and much better treatments out there.” - Savva Kerdemelidis Savva Kerdemelidis and Zan Lowe, of Public Good Pharma, joined me this week to talk about re-aligning the incentive structures for drug development.  In our current system, drugs are often funded based on how much of their formula is patentable, and manufacturers will tweak the formulas in order to get new patents when they've run out. So how do we fix the system, for the public good?  Savva's solution is to “self-fund” pharmaceutical trials, through employers. These trials can be used to determine if lower cost drugs have the same or better effect than more expensive, patented ones (which they often do), and also demonstrate huge cost-savings for employers.  Join us as we take on “Big Pharma” this week on Self-Funded.

Dr. Thomas (Tom) Nagle founded the Strategic Pricing Group (now part of Monitor Deloitte) in 1987 soon after publication of the first edition of The Strategy and Tactics of Pricing. For more than three decades, he has advised companies, primarily in B-to-B markets, on how to manage more profitably the five elements of pricing strategy: Value Creation, Value Communication, Price Structure, Pricing Policy, and Competitive Price Setting. In this episode, Tom shares how value is perceived and measured by customers, emphasizing the distinction between economic value and willingness to pay. He also delves into the complexities of pricing negotiations, highlighting the importance of understanding customer perceptions and effectively communicating the impact of products or services on their business outcomes.    Why you have to check out today's podcast: Understand the intricacies of value-based pricing, distinguishing between economic value and willingness to pay, and providing real-life examples illustrating these concepts effectively Delve into these two critical decisions buyers make to help you better understand and influence customer purchasing behaviors Find out practical advice on handling price negotiations, emphasizing the importance of "gives and gets" and strategies to avoid undermining your pricing integrity   "Don't ever believe what the customer is telling you upfront about what their value is. They may believe it, but they don't know the impact." - Tom Nagle   Topics Covered: 01:29 - His early experiences with pricing influenced by his grandmother and how he got into pricing professionally 03:16 - How it is more effective to focus on market response to price changes and gather qualitative insights from clients than just precisely measuring elasticity 08:49 - Important thoughts on why pricing didn't matter much then before its deregulation 11:28 - Explaining the concepts of value and value-based pricing with an example illustrating the point 16:56 - The need to create policies to maintain price integrity and managing negotiations to prevent undermining value capture 23:25 - Discussing the concept of value-based pricing and sharing an insightful example where a service's value was evaluated against the status quo rather than a competitor 26:16 - Tom's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: "The goal is not to try to put a line between them that's a weighted average of the high prices and the low prices, and call it a demand curve. The goal is to figure out why we have all this variation and use that variation to create segments that eliminate the trade off between price and volume." - Tom Nagle "The value isn't in the product. You can study the product from now until kingdom come, and you are never going to understand the value by studying the product.
