What it does

Price Increase Announcement is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Announce a price increase without triggering a churn spike — the rationale, grandfathering, effective dates, the FAQ, and the internal brief so support isn't blindsided. Use when asked to announce a price increase, write pricing change comms, raise prices to customers, or communicate new pricing. Produces the customer email, the FAQ with objection handling, the grandfathering/transition terms, and the internal enablement brief. A pricing-comms craft, not a discount.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Help center and FAQ content and Sales enablement. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to announce a price increase
  • Write pricing change comms
  • Raise prices to customers
  • Communicate new pricing

Example prompts

  • “/price-increase-announcement”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Lead with the number. Say the increase in the first lines; hiding it reads as shame and breeds distrust.
  2. One true reason. Ideally "we've added X, Y, Z since you signed" — value earns a price. Don't over-justify.
  3. Soften for loyalty. A price-lock window or phased ramp for existing customers turns a shock into a fair-notice.
  4. Give a clear date and choice. When it hits, and what they can do (renew early, switch plan, contact us).
  5. Arm the front line. Support/sales get the FAQ and save-rules before customers do — never after.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Price Increase Announcement loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 532 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Announce a price increase without triggering a churn spike — the rationale, grandfathering, effective dates, the FAQ, and the internal brief so support isn't blindsided. Use when asked to announce a price increase, write pricing change comms, raise prices to customers, or communicate new pricing. Produces the customer email, the FAQ with objection handling, the grandfathering/transition terms, and the internal enablement brief. A pricing-comms craft, not a discount.

Price Increase Announcement

A price increase is a trust event, and most are botched by burying the number, over-justifying, or blindsiding support the day the emails land. This writes the version that respects the customer: the increase stated plainly and early, a reason that's true (usually more value delivered), a transition that softens the jump for loyal customers, and an internal brief so every rep can answer the angry reply.

What This Skill Produces

  • The customer announcement — clear increase, honest reason, effective date, what's not changing
  • Grandfathering / transition terms — how existing customers are handled (locked price window, phased, or notice period)
  • The FAQ — the hard questions ("why now," "can I lock in," "I'll cancel") with real answers
  • The internal brief — talking points and the discount/save guardrails so support and sales are aligned

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The change — old price → new price, which plans, and when it takes effect
  • The real reason — new capabilities, cost pressure, repositioning (the honest one, not a spin)
  • Customer segments — new vs existing, annual vs monthly, enterprise vs self-serve — terms differ
  • The transition — are existing customers grandfathered, phased, or given notice? What's the policy?
  • Guardrails — what reps can offer to save an account, and what they can't

Framework: A Price Increase That Holds

  1. Lead with the number. Say the increase in the first lines; hiding it reads as shame and breeds distrust.
  2. One true reason. Ideally "we've added X, Y, Z since you signed" — value earns a price. Don't over-justify.
  3. Soften for loyalty. A price-lock window or phased ramp for existing customers turns a shock into a fair-notice.
  4. Give a clear date and choice. When it hits, and what they can do (renew early, switch plan, contact us).
  5. Arm the front line. Support/sales get the FAQ and save-rules before customers do — never after.

Output Format

Customer email
  • Subject: [clear, not evasive]
  • Body: the increase → the reason (value) → effective date → what's unchanged → their options → thank-you

Transition terms
  • Existing customers: [grandfather window / phased / notice]. New customers: [effective immediately].
FAQ
QuestionAnswer
Why are prices going up?…
Can I lock in the current price?…
What if I want to cancel?…
Internal enablement brief
  • Talking points · objection responses · save guardrails (what reps may/may not offer)

Quality Checks

  • The new price and effective date are in the first few lines
  • The reason is true and value-led, not padded with spin
  • Existing-customer transition terms are explicit
  • The FAQ answers the cancel/lock-in questions honestly
  • The internal brief ships alongside (not after) the customer comms
  • Save guardrails are defined so reps don't improvise discounts

Anti-Patterns

  • Burying the number in paragraph four — the fastest way to lose trust.
  • Over-justifying with a wall of reasons — one true reason beats five defensive ones.
  • Blindsiding support — angry replies with no talking points is a self-inflicted wound.
  • No transition for loyal customers — a flat overnight jump maximises churn.
  • Spin as the reason ("to serve you better") when the truth is cost — customers can tell.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Announce a price increase to our customers."
  • "Write the pricing change email and FAQ."
  • "We're raising prices 15% — help me communicate it without a churn spike."
  • "Draft customer and internal comms for new pricing."
