Two powerhouses in market research and pricing consulting join forces
San Francisco, CA, November 20, 2017: InterQ Research, Silicon Valley’s leading full-service market research firm, and Pricing Innovations, a Minneapolis-based leader in pricing consulting, have announced a partnership. By combining consulting capabilities, the two firms are now able to offer their clients both aspects of pricing consulting: Qualitative and quantitative insights.
For companies in the software space, healthcare, emerging technologies, or consumer products, InterQ and Pricing Innovations offer a full-suite of products, tools, and consulting to help companies understand how to price their products and services.
By using sophisticated, proprietary modeling, including The Pricing Canvas™, Pricing Innovations guides companies into the specific price ranges that will drive profitability, while keeping them competitive. Pricing Innovations uses tools that include Rapid Pricing Assessments®, workshops, and in-depth consulting that helps companies optimize their monetization strategies.
Once the pricing strategy and structures are identified, InterQ conducts testing and validation research to understand whether the perceived market value is aligned with the products’ value proposition and are within the target pricing window(s) when compared to other products.
“Oftentimes, companies will come up with pricing that may fit their monetization needs, but their different customers benefit from their products differently and therefore display a wide spectrum of willingness to pay.” says Joanna Jones, Head of Research at InterQ. “By applying our qualitative insights to the pricing strategy and structure that Pricing Innovations sets, we’re able to refine the process, so that we can ensure that the pricing strategy is well aligned with the monetization opportunity.”
Clients of Pricing Innovations will be able to choose from a full suite of products offered by Pricing Innovations and InterQ, and InterQ clients who are testing pricing can now benefit from Pricing Innovations’ comprehensive consulting services – all without having to shop these services out separately.
