Cash Flow Mike

Before your first client meeting this month, ask: “What decision do you need to make?” A hiring decision needs different evidence than a payroll cash gap. Start with the pressure the client feels, then decide which numbers to investigate.

A $50 courtside seat can be a timing opportunity when the offer is available to everyone. That feels different from pricing based on the person.

A $12 priority-boarding upgrade is not only about getting on a plane early. It is about reducing the stress of finding overhead-bin space.

Customers compare perceived benefit with perceived cost. A higher price can work when the experience makes the value clear.

Rising game and event costs can change who gets to participate. Price is not just revenue—it shapes whether customers feel included.

A sump-pump price discussion asks where the moral line sits during an emergency. Context matters when supply, urgency, and customer trust collide.

Electronic shelf labels can update prices quickly. The business question is not only what can change—but how customers experience the change.

If two people can see different prices for the same burger, the issue is bigger than the number. Perceived fairness is part of the customer experience.

An $85 all-you-can-eat popcorn offer raises a simple value question: what does the customer get for the price? Context changes how a price lands.

A flight add-on moved from $12 to $46, then back to $27. Dynamic pricing can change the offer—but customers still decide what feels worth paying.

When identical items show different prices at the same store and time, customers notice. Price testing needs transparency if a business wants to keep trust.

A retention offer can lose trust fast when the price changes after a customer logs in. Clear, consistent pricing matters before a customer decides to leave.
