Pricing is just math.


Just because it has numbers in it, it doesn't mean it's just math.

When we follow that logic, sure, setting a price is just math.

So would be diabetes.

Or malnourishment.

Or poverty.

They all require a shift in the measurements. Yet most importantly, a shift in thinking.

The wrong focus. On customers that are not profitable. On products that no one needs. On numbers (revenue, sales), over profits. On people who just won't do the thing or put the work. Choosing is hard, yet simple. You've always known what you should do. Take that first next step and just start.

To deliver surprise you need to be comfortable with risk. No risk, and you'll be expected, predictable. And if you want to stand out in your market, predictability works in favor of your competitors. Awe them. Awe your customers.

During a conversation this past week, I heard that. That raising your prices 5X or 10X, or charging one client different (probably 10X more) from another is not fair. Or that it's wrong. What are your thoughts on that?
