Piedmont Pitch: Pricing, Costs, and Launch Preparation

Piedmont Pitch Week 4: Pricing, Costs, and Launch Preparation

Business Essentials Training session 2

Get clear up front on your business costs, how to establish prices and project profitability, considering the value proposition of your product or service. 

• Are your costs and profit margins designed to reach industry norms?
• Is your pricing strategy appropriate to engage and retain customers?
• Will this business make enough to support myself and/or my family?

In this workshop we discuss effective cost of goods sold management and give you tools to prepare to launch a new product or service.
