In this project-centered course, Darden's Ron Wilcox and BCG's Thomas Kohler will walk you through a real-world case, from problem statement to detailed analyses. You'll use all three lenses (cost, customer value, and competition) to recommend an optimal price—and then adjust to market disruptions. Utilizing the concepts, tools and techniques taught in previous Specialization courses—from basic techniques of economics to knowledge of customer segments, willingness to pay, and customer decision making to analysis of market prices, share, and industry dynamics—you will practice setting profit maximizing prices to improve price realization. You'll finish the course with a portfolio-building project that demonstrates your pricing prowess from this Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia and Boston Consulting Group course.

Retail Market Dynamics
Welcome to the course! We'll kick off the week with an overview of the project, which centers around Philips introduction of an eco-friendly light bulb. Once you've read the case, Thomas and Ron will guide you as you apply the cost lens to analyze the economics of the LED light bulb Philips has introduced to the market. After you've analyzed the economics of the case, Ron and Thomas will debrief to make sure you are on the right track. You will also hear from BCG pricing experts, who will share their lessons and tips gleaned from years of helping clients in multiple industries optimize their prices and improve the bottom line.
Customer Value and Conjoint Analysis
This week, we will dig deeper into customer value using conjoint analysis to determine the price sensitivity of consumers and businesses. Thomas and Ron will show you how to graph the conjoint data to easily compare these two markets--and you'll do additional analysis of the conjoint data to learn more about what consumers value. Using your analysis, you'll hone your pricing recommendation.
Price Recommendation
This week, you will pull everything together to make a pricing recommendation for Philips. You will recommend which markets they should serve (B2B, B2C, or both) and how they should price their LED bulbs. You'll learn how to lay out your thought process and rationale in a tightly edited slide deck that presents your recommendations in a compelling way.
Curveball
This week, you will respond to new developments in the LED light bulb market: a new competitor and new regulations. Just like in real life, you'll need to adjust your strategy when the competitive landscape changes and new regulations emerge and reconsider the retail marketplace and reevaluate the B2B market. You'll also head out into your own "real world" and do some detective work about the LED bulb market in your area and relate those finding to the case. We'll finish the course with BCG pricing experts sharing their insights into what makes pricing such a rewarding field.
