Post-merger integration of the price strategies of two scientific publishers
Challenge
The merger of two scientific publishing groups raised the question of a basic distribution and pricing model for diverse content
Approach
Competitive benchmarking regarding price models (e.g. bundles, à la carte, usage-based) as well as respective target groups and developments
Design and evaluation of a customer survey in the academic and corporate environment with customers and non-customers as key input for bundling and hierarchy recommendations
Librarian interviews regarding procurement processes, budget developments, content evaluation and expected behavior for each scenario
Result
Clear definition of a recommended deployment and pricing model including an estimated outcome effect per scenario
