“Make sure you're paying attention to how customers behave as opposed to what they say they're going to do.” - Scott Francis

“If you pay attention to how customers actually behave when pricing choices are in front of them, you'll have a much better understanding about how much pricing power you really have and how sensitive your customers really are, and you can make much better decisions than just listening to what the customers say via survey or what the salespeople tell you.” - Scott Francis
