Individual skill
founder-pricing
Finds the price buyers will actually pay. Reads the consumer panel's four price answers per buyer into a Van Westendorp price-sensitivity range (too cheap, a bargain, getting expensive, too expensive), sets it against what competitors really charge and against the CFO's margin, and recommends a price, a price ladder (good / better / best) and an opening offer to test. Use when the user says "how much should I charge", "price this", "is $X too expensive", "pricing strategy", "what price", or after the consumer panel.

# founder-pricing
Price is the fastest lever on the margin and the one founders guess most. This
skill sets it from three things you can check: what buyers said, what competitors
