General
Who are Ideal Price Programs for?
Courses are for anyone or for teams that are facing a pricing challenge that they want to (or have to) solve themselves without the use of expensive outside consultants.
What background do I need to get the most out of the Ideal Price Programs
The courses are designed for people with a broad range of business experience. You should have at least some experience working in a commercial business, but do not need an MBA nor extensive mathematical skills. The courses take a step-by-step approach that leads you through at your pace, with individual support available if needed.
What can I do if I get stuck?
For smaller questions, the web ‘office hours’ and email support will give you fast and helpful support. For more intricate or complex questions, 1:1 coaching via web meetings is an option (premium packages)
How long will the Program take to complete? What’s the time commitment like?
There are 3 versions of the program and each demands a different level of time commitment. See below an overview:
| Activity | Price Foundation | Ready-to-Launch | Made for You |
|---|---|---|---|
| Duration in weeks | 4 weeks | 8 weeks | 10 weeks |
| Core live sessions | 4 x 2h = 8 hours | 8 x 2h = 16 hours | 10 x 2h = 20 hours |
| Focus topics live sessions | 0 hours | 2 x 1.5h = 3 hours | 4 x 1.5h = 6 hours |

How can I access the materials?
Once you subscribe and before the next program starts, there will be two sets of materials made available for you:
- the documentation used during the live sessions which will be a set of pdf files with the content covered by the facilitators – you will be sent a link where you can download the materials.
- access to your own digital whiteboard (www.miro.com) – here you will find a set of templates which we will work through the program. Each team will have its own digital whiteboard, setup in a confidential and password protected matter so that only your team has access to it. This board will be available for a period of 6 months. It is possible to download, export and duplicate boards.
Are the live sessions interactive?
Yes, the live sessions are interactive and a mix of facilitator led presentation and participants brainstorming and discussion moments. After the live sessions, participants are requested to work through and complete the key templates for discussion in the next live session. Business confidential matters will remain confidential as no one else besides the facilitators will have access to your materials. In the live sessions you share as much as you wish/ can. Web office hours mail exchanges and 1:1 coaching sessions are of course fully interactive.
Can I earn a certificate of completion through the online courses?
Yes! But the real value is applying the program materials to answer your own pricing questions
