Are you already beginning to suspect that Excel is not the best way to manage your prices?

The acronym *aaS and its translation, *as-a-Service, refers to consuming a product or service that you do not directly own.

10-15 years ago, most prices were set by salespeople, finance or marketing.  Today however, more and more companies are treating pricing as a job in its own right.  A strong pricing capability, one that uses the new pricing software developed in recent years, can be a powerful way to bolster a company's bottom line. 

It's 19th April 2017, and that means, after being supported with lots of chocolate eggs over the Easter period, we can finally share the following updates and enhancements with BlackCurve users:

Do you assume that your sales staff will always implement your current pricing strategy to the letter?  This could prove to be a dangerous assumption.

It's a fact that sales people often offer discounts before they should and this can potentially have a devastating affect on your bottom line - in fact it could just be considered an act of sabotage!

How did your business decide on your current pricing strategy? Was it just on the whim of the person who first set the company up, based on a gut feeling for what the product or service should cost? 

As BlackCurve continues to progress, we look to add exceptional people to contribute towards our mission - helping companies optimise their prices and grow profits. Today we're welcoming Chris Anson as our new team member.
