Pricing Strategy

Value-Based Pricing

Formula:

Your Price = (Customer Value Delivered) × (Capture Rate)

Example:
Customer saves $100K/year with your product
You capture 10% = $10K/year price

Price Sensitivity Analysis

Van Westendorp Method:

At what price is this too expensive?
At what price is this too cheap?
At what price is this expensive but worth it?
At what price is this a bargain?

Unit Economics

Key Metrics

LTV = ARPU × Gross Margin % / Churn %

Example:
$100 ARPU × 80% GM / 5% churn = $1,600 LTV

CAC Target: LTV/3 = $533 max CAC
Payback: 12 months max

Revenue Forecasting

Month | New MRR | Churn | Net New | Total MRR
------|---------|-------|---------|----------
