What it does

Pricing Strategy is an agent skill from thatrebeccarae/claude-marketing. Pricing model design, competitive positioning, value metric selection, price testing, and pricing page optimization. Use when the user asks about pricing strategy, pricing models, price testing, value-based pricing, or competitive pricing analysis.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `EXAMPLES.md` and `REFERENCE.md`).

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Pricing strategy. The repository describes itself as: A full marketing department for Claude Code. Skill packs for Klaviyo, Shopify, GA4, Looker Studio, paid media, and more. Audit, optimize, and report using natural language. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks about pricing strategy
  • Value-based pricing
  • Competitive pricing analysis

Example prompts

  • “/pricing-strategy”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Scales with customer value — as they get more value, they naturally pay more
  2. Easy to understand — customer can predict their bill
  3. Measurable — you can track and bill accurately
  4. Controllable — customer can influence their usage

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a8a63ec. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Pricing Strategy loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 496 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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.

Pricing Strategy

Pricing model design, competitive analysis, and pricing page optimization.

Install

bash
git clone https://github.com/thatrebeccarae/claude-marketing.git && cp -r claude-marketing/skills/pricing-strategy ~/.claude/skills/

Pricing Models

ModelHow It WorksBest ForRisk
Per-seatPrice per user/monthCollaboration toolsDiscourages adoption
Usage-basedPay for what you useAPIs, infrastructureRevenue unpredictability
TieredFeature-gated plansSaaS with clear feature tiersComplexity, feature gating frustration
FreemiumFree tier + paid upgradesPLG, network effectsLow conversion (2-5% typical)
Flat-rateOne price for everythingSimple productsLeaves money on table
HybridBase + usage or seat + usageComplex productsPricing complexity
Per-unitPrice per resource (project, site)Agencies, multi-propertyUsage ceiling anxiety

Value Metric Selection

The value metric is what you charge for (seats, API calls, revenue managed, etc.).

Good value metric criteria:

  1. Scales with customer value — as they get more value, they naturally pay more
  2. Easy to understand — customer can predict their bill
  3. Measurable — you can track and bill accurately
  4. Controllable — customer can influence their usage
Product TypeCommon Value Metrics
Email marketingContacts, emails sent
AnalyticsEvents tracked, monthly users
CRMSeats, contacts
InfrastructureCompute hours, storage, requests
E-commerce platformGMV, orders, SKUs
Design toolsSeats, projects, exports

Competitive Pricing Analysis

Analysis Framework
  1. Inventory competitors — list all direct and indirect alternatives
  2. Map pricing models — how does each charge?
  3. Normalize to common unit — price per seat/month at comparable usage
  4. Position on value map — plot price vs. feature completeness
  5. Identify gaps — underserved price points or segments
Positioning Strategies
StrategyDescriptionWhen to Use
PremiumPrice above market, justify with valueStrong brand, unique features
CompetitiveMatch market pricesCommoditized market, feature parity
PenetrationPrice below market to gain shareNew entrant, land-and-expand model
ValuePrice based on ROI deliveredMeasurable customer outcomes

Good/Better/Best Tier Design

Tier Structure
FREE (or Starter): Entry point — enough to get hooked, not enough for serious use
PRO (or Growth):   Primary revenue tier — designed for most customers
ENTERPRISE:        High-touch — custom pricing, premium support, compliance features
Show full SKILL.md (207 more words)Show less
Tier Design Rules
  1. Most Popular = middle tier — anchor it visually and with a badge
  2. Free tier limits should push to paid naturally (not by being crippled)
  3. Feature fences should align with customer maturity (not arbitrary gates)
  4. Price anchoring — show enterprise price to make pro feel reasonable
  5. Annual discount — 15-20% for annual commitment (show monthly equivalent)

Pricing Page Optimization

Best Practices
  • Default to annual billing toggle (pre-selected) with monthly option
  • Show savings for annual ("Save 20%")
  • Highlight recommended plan (visual emphasis + "Most Popular" badge)
  • Feature comparison table with max 8-10 rows (not 40)
  • CTA per plan with specific text ("Start Free Trial" vs "Contact Sales")
  • Social proof per tier ("Used by 500+ teams")
  • FAQ section addressing pricing objections
  • Money-back guarantee or free trial prominently displayed

Price Testing Methods

MethodSampleWhat It Tests
Van WestendorpSurvey 200+Price sensitivity (too cheap, too expensive, bargain, deal-breaker thresholds)
Gabor-GrangerSurvey 300+Demand curve at specific price points
A/B testWebsite trafficActual conversion at different prices
Cohort pricingNew signupsDifferent prices for different cohorts over time
