Charging per booked meeting. Thoughts?
I'm pricing my first cold email clients per booked meeting instead of a retainer. $250 for each meeting that actually happens, plus a one-time setup fee. No-shows are free. The hard part has been defining the unit. Rules I've written so far: - A meeting counts unless the client flags it within 48 hours (it didn't happen, or it was the wrong person). - For one deal where sales take 2 or 3 calls, only the first meeting with each company counts. The client handles the calls after that. It's the same problem you all talk about with credits. I do the counting, so how does the client trust the bill? If you've priced on outcomes: what did you count, and what did customers end up arguing about?

Attribution is the primary weakness of outcome-based pricing. The secondary weakness is not getting paid until after the fact. Can you go upstream 1 or 2 steps, and sell a bundle of leads against some matching criteria?

I've found the Van Westendorp questions are better for written surveys with 50+ respondents than in-person conversations. For in-person conversations it's more about answering, do they actually want to invest in solving the problem? and what's the quantified value of solving it. Here's a couple of my newsletter installments on how to get at price at this stage: https://forstarters.substack.com/p/for-starters-75-how-to-price-before https://forstarters.substack.com/p/for-starters-60-value-stacks
New ChatGPT upsells
Fun new paywall from OpenAI with a fixed number of "usage limit resets" (really they are "usage resets"). Nice way of creating "helpful" upsells...and perhaps make you feel like you are well into the next tier.

Wow. How silly. Duolingo-ification of ChatGPT?
Bending Spoons acquires Miro - reflection of AI monetization strategy?
Interesting news. Bending Spoons acquires Miro for about $1.35B at a roughly 2.25x multiple. From the outside looking in, I thought Miro had a pretty solid AI monetization strategy bundling AI credits in their self-serve plans and allowing people to buy more when they ran out. Maybe the strategy was sound but the execution missed? Anyone have thoughts? My head is thinking if their AI revenue was clicking Miro should have gotten a better deal?

I would categorize the acquisition less a reflection of any specific commercial strategy and more an acknowledgment that Miro never reach their peak valuation. Bending Spoons is like hospice for well loved SaaS brands with astronomical valuations.
guidance on pricing agentic marketing saas products
Anyone have any guidance on pricing agentic marketing saas products. I'm thinking credit based plans with the ability to buy additional credits to support project needs.

What's the noun this product helps customers get more of?

so, I think of it like this: marketing -> lead generation -> sales this tool is helping generate leads via AI referrals. Leads are worth something. Higher quality leads are worth more. Leads ready to buy are worth the most. What are you customer currently paying per lead?, and what's their CAC? Some small percentage of that multiplied by the expected # of leads is your price.
