b'What determines the price of an item or service? How can we price things so that people want to buy them but also so that we feel it\\u2019s fair? Whether (like me) you\\u2019re in business and have to sell, or you\\u2019re negotiating a salary or looking to buy or sell a house or a car, pricing matters.
My guest on this episode, Melina Palmer, is the author of a new book, The Truth About Pricing: How to Apply Behavioral Economics So Customers Buy (Value Based Pricing, What Your Buyer Values).
She\\u2019s also the host of the Brainy Business podcast and has been on the show before (links below).
