What it does
Most businesses add up cost, add a margin and call the result the price. That keeps the price tied to what you do today. The other way is to pick the price the buyer can pay, then ask what the product would have to be to hit it. This skill sets the target price below where your costs sit now. It lists every cost line, step and part, and asks for each whether the customer needs it to get the service. It removes or simplifies first and only then looks at speed. It looks for places where competition is thin and people travel far to buy, estimates volume and margin, and names a single-job test to run before any wide change.
