A cheaper competitor isn't a pricing problem. It's a framing problem. The AE who fumbles the response — "well, we're more premium" — has already lost. The AE who reframes the comparison around total cost and time-to-value usually keeps the deal at list price.
This worksheet is the prep. Fill it once per low-price competitor, hand it to the rep before the next call.
If you can't name the buyer's real cost of going cheap, you'll discount to match.
What goes on the card
Six fields. Each one closes a specific objection a rep will actually hear in cycle.
If this number is negative, you have a positioning problem, not a pricing one.
