6) Pricing & ROI Explainer: Make Budget Approval Easy

Clear pricing + credible ROI shortens cycles and reduces discount pressure.

Updated over a month ago

Turn pricing from a hurdle into a greenlight. Package a concise video explainer and a simple ROI model on one page - so champions can justify spend and secure approvals without back-and-forth.

Who it’s for

  • Founders, Marketing, and Product Marketing

  • Enterprise AEs & Sales Engineers in budget reviews

  • Finance-friendly champions who need board/exec buy-in

Why it matters

Clear pricing + credible ROI shortens cycles and reduces discount pressure. Most pricing pages answer “how much,” not “why now.” A tight explainer plus a calculator gives buyers exactly what they need to move.

How it works (TOF → MOF → BOF)

TOF (Set expectations fast):

2–3 short clips: “How pricing works” (tiers/usage) and “Typical ROI in 90 days.” Post on LinkedIn/X/Shorts and use in email follow-ups. Each links to the Pricing Explainer page.

MOF (On-site “Pricing Explainer” page):

A Replay page that includes:

  • Chapters: Pricing model → What’s included → ROI in 90 days → Examples

  • Simple calculator: inputs (team size/usage), outputs (payback, annual ROI)

  • Transcript + searchable timeline

  • Artifacts: PDF pricing guide, procurement checklist, security/compliance links

BOF (Approval-ready actions):

Primary CTAs: “Get a tailored quote” · “Start free trial.”
Secondary: “Download finance pack” (pricing guide + ROI model) · “Book a 15-min approval run-through.”


KPIs: Quote requests · Trial starts · Discount rate (↓) · Time-to-approval · Finance pack downloads


Automation tips: Completion >70% and ROI chapter opened → alert AE to follow up same day; calculator used → email the assumptions/result as a PDF + booking link; finance pack download from exec domain → ping AE and create approval task.

Clarity converts. By pairing cost with credible outcomes, you shorten procurement loops and defend value -before discounts enter the conversation.
