Balancing customer needs with policies requires empathy. Listen closely, clarify pricing policies transparently, and suggest alternatives when possible. This approach shows respect for customer expectations and builds trust.

To address client resistance to pricing, focus on understanding their concerns and emphasising the value your services provide. Highlight how your solution uniquely meets their needs, using case studies if possible. Be transparent with pricing, offering tiered options or flexible payment plans. Negotiate based on value rather than price, and remind them of the costs of inaction. Building trust and maintaining professionalism throughout the discussion will increase the likelihood of clients accepting your pricing. Lastly, learn how to say "NO". Saying "no" to clients when necessary establishes clear boundaries, builds mutual respect, and ensures long-term relationships based on trust and realistic expectations.

Finding the right balance between conflicting customer demands and company pricing policies requires a strategic approach. Here are steps I consider: 1. Engage directly with customers to understand their specific demands 2. Examine my company’s pricing structure 3. Assess potential compromises that could satisfy customer demands 4. Clearly explain the reasoning behind pricing policies 5. Propose alternative solutions that align more closely with company policies 6. Identify which customers are most valuable or strategically important 7. Create channels for customer feedback on pricing 8. Offer information on the value and benefits of my services 9. Consider running pilot programs or trials 10. Establish a routine review process

Keeping it short: Assess how you can, with your product/service, make the decisionmaker from the customer a hero in the eyes of their bosses and colleagues. What are the work-related goals? How can you help them achieve it?
