You’ve developed a wonderful new product or service and understand the costs, but how should you price it? This workshop is part of SCORE’s Small Business Essentials series. SCORE starts by reviewing different distribution and channel strategies and helps you choose the method that best gets your product or service in front of your satisfied customers. The rest of the workshop focuses on pricing, starting with some basic pricing concepts. Then SCORE reviews a detailed process to help you determine the price of your product. Since pricing a service is very different than a product, they have a special section that covers the separate process for pricing your services. Price: $10.00. A SCORE webinar.
