An energy company wanted to improve its pricing system to close more deals and increase margins. It worked with Fino Consulting to build a new pricing engine and mobile app. This allowed sales reps to generate custom proposals and contracts on their own, shortening deal cycles from weeks to minutes. With real-time pricing updates, reps could offer flexible contracts and maximize profits. The new system helped the energy company increase sales volumes and margins while saving over $100 million in potential price erosion.

1. In the highly competitive retail energy market, suppliers
must differentiate themselves with low prices and packages
tailored to meet customer needs. To grow its business, one
Fortune 500 energy company turned to Fino Consulting to
build a new pricing system with the flexibility and accuracy
needed to improve margins and close more deals.
A Need for More Speed
The company, one of North America’s largest energy retailers, used an
in-house system to create custom proposals with an optimal price for each
customer. However, sales reps in the field still relied on office colleagues to
alter deal terms and generate contracts with the system, so it took a lot of
time and effort to get each new proposal in front of a customer. That meant:
»» Deals were lost due to a long sales process that often lasted several weeks.
»» Contract options were limited to standard terms that weren’t ideal for all
customers.
»» Margins on closed deals often eroded due to shifts in energy market
prices while deals were negotiated.
Cutting the Deal Cycle
Fino worked with the company to develop a solution: a new pricing engine
built for fast processing to enable shorter deal cycles and greater flexibility.
The updated engine features a first-of-its-kind mobile interface that lets
sales reps input customer information and create proposals on their own.
Contracts can be instantly re-priced, so reps can negotiate and close deals
in just one meeting.
