DESCRIPTION:Jeremy Parsons (@jdap) fell into pricing by accident\, head-hu
 nted to be the first full-time pricing manager for Cable & Wireless who we
 re preparing for the onslaught at the end of the UK telecom duopoly. The r
 ecruiter assumed that a product manager with an Oxford maths degree workin
 g for a software distributor would either know all there was to know about
  pricing\, or learn fast enough that they could keep their hiring fee. Luc
 ky! He has used pricing strategy and overhauled pricing processes to great
  effect in four continents\, primarily in IT and Telecoms fields\, both as
  an executive and through a boutique consultancy.\n\nHe presently helps wi
 th the New Business division of Red Gate Software\, grits oysters in the C
 ambridge tech startup scene and is Curate of St Martin’s Church\, Cambri
 dge. He created beginspace for Future Business (spending three months in a
  disused bank helping all-comers)\, helped the University of Cambridge to 
 get the doors open at ideaSpace and co-founded the successful Pitch & Mix 
 startup networking group.\n\nMore information at: http://product-managemen
