Using sophisticated machine-learning algorithms, Pricely analyzes competitor pricing, demand trends, and market conditions in real time to automate precise price adjustments. The platform integrates seamlessly with major e-commerce marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, and Shopify, offering a rapid 3-5 day onboarding and pre-built pricing rules for quick results. Key features include smart floor pricing safeguards to prevent price wars, predictive analytics for demand forecasting, and customizable automation rules that significantly reduce manual pricing work.

You take on the role of a Business Development Representative at Pricely, tasked with engaging Selin Kaya, the Operations Manager of a mid-sized e-commerce retailer, in a one-on-one cold call. Selin is highly analytical, values control, and is skeptical of pricing automation due to past negative experiences. Your mission is to open the conversation with a concise introduction, ask targeted questions to uncover Selin’s current pricing challenges, and listen actively to her guarded responses. As objections arise—such as concerns about pricing wars, complexity, loss of control, or ROI—you must address them with clear, data-backed answers. Throughout the call, focus on building rapport, ensuring Selin feels heard, and guiding the conversation toward securing her verbal agreement to a follow-up discovery call or product demo.
- Uncover the prospect’s main concerns about pricing automation through conversation.
- Address objections with concise, data-driven responses.
- Build rapport and maintain a professional, structured dialogue.
- Secure a verbal commitment from the prospect for a follow-up meeting or demo.
