Today’s ServiceNow Relationships
Require a Strategic Approach
ServiceNow has been transitioning from a software vendor selling tools to the IT department to a platform provider that enables digital transformation and improved customer experience. Recognizing the opportunity to grow attach rates by expanding its customers’ portfolios, ServiceNow will be pushing for adoption of multiple products while pulling in user volume commitments ahead of actual need.
Current and potential customers must prepare for price increases, aggressive sales tactics, and more challenging negotiations. Our tailored playbooks and relevant market intelligence, our deep set of ServiceNow commercial benchmarks, and our proven methodology empower you to achieve deeply discounted upfront pricing, downstream price protections, and flexibility.

Increase Your Leverage with ServiceNow
ServiceNow can be accommodating at the outset of your relationship but tends to be more difficult to work with at renewal time as they understand it is very difficult for entrenched customers to walk away. Our strategic approach for managing your relationship ensures that ServiceNow is focused on providing real solutions to your business challenges rather than simply feeding their bottom line.
We understand ServiceNow’s motives and tactics and will identify negotiation levers unique to your situation that can be used to increase your leverage and achieve a favorable commercial outcome.
