Pricing Strategy Report Pack
Stop guessing at prices. A seven-tab workbook that does the maths, and a short guide that explains how to use it to set and review your prices.
The workbook (XLSX)
- Margin & Markup: profit, margin and markup from cost and price; the exact price for a target margin or markup.
- Margin-Markup Table: quick conversions, so 40% margin never gets confused with 40% markup again.
- Break-even: contribution margin, break-even units and revenue, units for a profit target, margin of safety.
- Discount Impact: how many more units a discount needs just to stand still.
- Price Increase: how many sales you could lose after a price rise and keep the same gross profit.
- Product Price List: 30 rows with margin, markup, suggested price at your target margin and monthly gross profit.
- Service Rate: the minimum hourly rate that covers your income target, overhead and non-billable time.
