How It All Started
More than 50 years ago, way before pricing was cool, a single pricing practitioner by the name of Eric Mitchell started The Professional Pricing Society. He reached out to his local community and also his then competitors – to create a newsletter for, by, and about pricing professionals. It has been an uninterrupted source of great information since the early 1980s. This began the journey to founding a global revenue management organization.
Then and Now
Since, PPS has continued to provide valued resources for our community:

Our first American Conference was in 1990, and we offered Online Pricing Training in 2002.

We developed the Certified Pricing Professional (CPP) to meet the needs for advanced training in 2003.

We began European Conferences in 2005, Asia/Pacific Conferences in 2013, and Latin American Conferences in 2014.
