Pricing Power and Discount Leakage Audit

Before after Has example

Find where revenue leaks through discounts.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

Show me how much revenue I lose to discounts and where my pricing is weaker than it needs to be. My price list: [PRICE_LIST]. Sales or invoice data with discounts: [SALES_DATA]. Who can approve discounts: [DISCOUNT_AUTHORITY].

Structure the answer as BEFORE and AFTER.

BEFORE (what the data shows): average discount by product, by customer segment, and by salesperson or channel; the share of deals discounted; the revenue given away in total (list price minus actual price); discounts with no stated reason. Present as a table and call out the three largest leaks.

AFTER (a better policy): a discount rule set with tiers, what must be given in return for each discount (longer term, prepayment, volume, case study), who approves what, and a floor price. Show the revenue effect of the new policy if the discount average fell by one-third, as a simple calculation with my numbers.

Add: three scripts for holding price in a negotiation, and a list of signs that I could raise prices (high win rate, no price objections, long waiting list). Mark any assumption you made.

BEFORE (from the sales data): average discount 14%; 62% of deals discounted; Salesperson C averages 22%; 9 deals discounted with no reason given. Revenue given away: $48,300 (list price minus actual).
Largest leaks: (1) end-of-quarter discounts, 19% average; (2) bundles for existing customers, 17%; (3) deals under $5,000, 21%.
AFTER (policy): up to 5% free; up to 10% needs a 12-month term; up to 15% needs prepayment and manager approval; floor price 80% of list.
If the average fell by one-third (14% to 9.3%), revenue would rise about $16,100 on the same volume (estimate, assumes no lost deals).
Script for holding price: "I can't change the price, but I can add onboarding sessions if we sign a 12-month term."
