🧮 Pricing Transparency: Offer Calculators That Win Finance

Finance approves stories they can edit. Offer calculators turn your value model into an interactive artifact that finance teams trust. By exposing inputs and ranges, you reduce back‑and‑forth, align on reality quickly, and move faster to “yes.”

🔧 What Your Calculator Needs

  • Inputs: volume, conversion, AOV/ACV, hours saved, salaries, implementation time.
  • Outputs: monthly/annual impact, breakeven months, ROI range (conservative/base/upside).
  • Assumptions panel with sources and editable fields.

🧭 Where It Lives

Appendix in proposal (PDF link), a lightweight Google Sheet, or a built‑in page behind a short URL. Keep versions consistent across sales.

📈 Breakeven First

Lead with time‑to‑breakeven and impact per month. Finance gravitates to payback and cash flow. Keep the math simple and auditable.

✅ Checklist

❓ FAQ

What if finance asks for our model? Give a simplified sheet with editable inputs; keep proprietary formulas private. Transparency beats opacity.
