  • Nicolas Richer: À quel prix doit-on vendre un site WordPress ?

    WordCamp Paris 2016Speaker: Nicolas Richer

    April 13, 2016 — Au WordCamp Paris 2014, Thierry Pigot nous parlait du coût d’un site internet. Sa méthode de calcul reposait notamment sur le calcul des charges en interne pour calculer le prix de vente.

    Mais existe-t-il d’autres méthodes ? Notamment basée sur la valeur créée pour le client ?

    Comment se fait-il que certains arrivent à vendre des sites à 10 000 € quand d’autres n’arrivent pas à facturer plus de 1 000 € ? Faut-il être un commercial aux dents longues ou un marketeur manipulateur pour être enfin payé à notre juste valeur ?

    Nous verrons dans cette conférence comment un changement de point de vue et quelques calculs permettent de facturer des sites bien plus chers… tout en restant honnête !
