The Consortium

Commercial optimisation

Your product got better. Your price didn’t.

For the software leader leaving money on the table.

That gap is profit you’re not collecting.

Sellers discount to close. Nobody owns pricing.

AI costs go up and you absorb them.

Sound familiar?

  • Discounts are decided deal by deal.
  • Renewals go out at last year’s price.
  • You’re buying software and don’t know what’s negotiable.

What we do

  1. 1

    We build a pricing model you can test with real customers within days.

  2. 2

    We shape packaging to fit exactly how you sell.

  3. 3

    We set discount rules that protect the next deal as well as this one.

  4. 4

    We price AI cost-to-serve instead of eating it.

  5. 5

    Buying, not selling? We’ve sat on the other side of hundreds of deals.

What you get

  • Higher value per deal.
  • Faster closes.
  • Customer lifetime value up.

We’ve done this before

Poppulo · Pricing & packaging

Discounting was eroding lifetime value, with no pricing governance. We set up the pricing process and committee, redesigned discounting and re-packaged the product.

Double-digit percentage rise in customer lifetime value.
