You run a B2B SME. Pricing sits with a few busy people, close to the customer, under time pressure. Margin leaks in small decisions: a discount given away here, a service delivered free there, a cost increase passed on late. You know the pattern. What is missing is the number that makes fixing it a priority.
Takuven works with founder-led and family-owned businesses, run by leaders who believe in their products and their people. When a company like that earns the prices its value deserves, the gain does not sit in a spreadsheet.
Better salaries, bonuses and profit sharing reach employees and their families.
Growth gets funded from margin, not from debt or dilution.
A profitable SME hires, and whole communities feel it.
11 questions place you on the Takuven five-level scale and show the indicative profit range for your next step, with your top three priorities. It costs you nothing and tells us both whether there is money worth chasing.
Processes, organization and enablers, examined together, on your transaction data. You get the quantified opportunity, the bottlenecks that hold performance down, and the top three capture moves with business cases.
The analytics size and rank every leak. The change work brings your sales team on board, because pricing only holds if the people who quote it defend it.
The discipline stays: a light advisory rhythm through the year of pricing decisions, and an AI-powered platform in development to make the capability continuous.
Every SME engagement starts from your situation, not from a catalog. We scope the work together to meet your needs, agree deliverables and milestones, and fix the fee before work starts. On a longer piece of work you should be buying an outcome, not a meter.
Clients engaging before 31 December 2026 keep these rates through 2027.
The same instruments, pointed at your portfolio. Pricing is the fastest EBITDA lever a holding period has: it needs no capex, no new customers and no headcount, and it compounds from the quarter it lands.
The diagnostic quantifies each portfolio company's opportunity in weeks and hands the management team a sequenced plan they own. Start with one company, prove the number, then roll the method across the portfolio. The value shows where you need it: in the bridge at exit.
Every move is built with the people who face customers, not imposed on them. Incentives, guidance and peer comparison make defending price the easier path.
No pricing department required. The work is designed for lean organizations: clear rules, light governance, automation where it pays.
Each step is scoped, quoted and justified by the step before it. You stop whenever the numbers stop justifying the next step.
Three minutes, free, and you will know your level and what reaching the next one is typically worth.
