The client specializes in helping organizations cultivate more resilient employees through mindfulness. However, they aimed to create a facilitated course for other coaches and were uncertain about how to price it, whether there would be demand, and under what circumstances it would sell. Through secondary research, we identified individuals purchasing similar training and defined the characteristics of potential buyers. We then interviewed five coaches who matched the initial profile. Our findings revealed that potential buyers were willing to pay between 250% to 500% more than the client's intended price for the course. We also identified four key conditions that the target audience required before making a purchase. This insight helped the company realize they had overlooked critical elements in their marketing strategy, ultimately saving them thousands of dollars. They are now working on fulfilling the four conditions and have decided to delay the course launch until those are met.
