Overall this is an effective course. However, more emphasis could have been placed on implementing price discrimination strategies and tracking the data with BI. I expected the BI component to be more substantial based on course description.

A great course for learning price discrimination concept. It provides applicable techniques that you can immediately use to increase your profit. The presenter is very knowledgeable and will surely take his courses.

Excellent course and presentation. The section on price vs. demand are not effective due to inadequate explanation of the charts. Should consider animating this (line-by-line) and spending more time on it.

Good course with a lot of good information. The presenter provides a strong and informative discussion on the subject. It will provide a model to use in making pricing decisions throughout the organization.

Good ideas and detailed description of all new terms to me. Not sure if we have sufficient market power to make this work for our company, but will be talking with Sales.

Very clear presentation. Interesting concept that exists, but may not be recognized by everyone. Instructor knowledgeable and keeps the "economics" lessons to a minimum.

I really love this series and the effective delivery of the material. Do you have any online college level courses leading to a certificate.

Good introduction to pricing strategy. Might make sense to have a section on regression analysis before introducing it in the course

Good course, but at times the difference between the various degrees of price discrimination became blurred.

Very little was said on Business Intelligence. But the description of the strategy was very entertaining.
