About this template

Pricing conversations stall because nobody knows which axis is resisting. This assessment applies Van Westendorp logic across four axes — Value Clarity, Price Resilience, Purchase Intent and Premium Tolerance — with twelve weighted 1-5 statements plus respondent context. Each completion returns an AI PDF report banding the four axes, so a team can see whether resistance comes from value that has not been explained, price itself, weak intent, or an unwillingness to pay premium.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the four-price Van Westendorp question set?
It applies the same logic as a scored instrument: value clarity, price resilience, purchase intent and premium tolerance across twelve weighted statements.
What do the four axes tell you apart?
Whether resistance is unclear value, price itself, weak intent or unwillingness to pay premium — each gets its own band.
Should respondents see a price?
Give them a referent — the current price or a range — before the items, or the answers float.
Who is qualified to answer?
People who buy in the category and know the alternatives; non-buyers distort the resilience axis.
What does the AI report give?
A band per axis plus interpretation, which is what a pricing discussion needs instead of opinion.
Is it free per offering?
Yes — copy one free assessment per product, tier or market.
