Simon-Kucher’s Heritage

The strategy consultancy Simon-Kucher was founded in 1985 in Bonn, Germany, by Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. mult. Hermann Simon, Dr. Eckhard Kucher, and Dr. Karl-Heinz Sebastian. Their vision: Use scientific methods that determine the optimal price to address real-life business challenges.

Now, 35 years later, their vision has proven to be an extraordinary success. The former university spinoff has grown into a truly global company. Today, strategic pricing specialist Simon-Kucher is a major consulting firm (2019 revenue of $401 million), with around 1,400 employees in 25 countries and 39 offices worldwide. The firm is headquartered in Germany, but continues its global expansion as the market leader in pricing at a fast pace.

Unlike cost-cutting initiatives, Simon-Kucher’s work in growing clients’ revenue and profit has no natural limits. As long as consumers, technologies, and business environments keep changing, companies will need help with monetizing their products.

Simon-Kucher’s common values include integrity, respect, team spirit, and entrepreneurship. The latter is especially important. All of the around 130 Partners are not only owners of the company, they are also entrepreneurs in the truest sense of the word. They are responsible for the firm’s economic success and future development. Leadership also encourages the entrepreneurial spirit among all of the firm’s associates.

Growth by numbers

 The firm attempts to practice what it preaches, and applies much the same philosophy to its own business as it recommends to clients and through its publications. The company explicitly states that it is not a general strategy shop, and does not take on projects, such as cost-cutting or restructuring, that require skills outside of its specialized purview. Simon-Kucher remains committed to growth in its own niche, however, and has been working hard to build on its existing client relationships, attract new clients, expand into new industries, and open offices in emerging and developed markets, all the while focusing on what it does best: strategy, marketing, pricing and sales consulting – an approach the firm refers to as TopLine Power^®.

Digitalization the Simon-Kucher way

Simon-Kucher has worked for 30+ unicorns like UBER, Asana, and Eventbrite, helping them to monetize innovations, accelerate growth, design loyalty programs and business models, to package and price their offering – in short, to boost their TopLine. 

In the digital age, there are tremendous opportunities to maximize growth. As a specialist TopLine Power®, Simon-Kucher analyzes and implements solutions in all key phases of the sales funnel: from marketing to sales, from personalization to loyalty, from pricing to segmentation. The firm’s experienced digital consultants, industry experts, data scientists, and technology advisors use both data and qualitative insights as a starting point to work on any business challenge.
