From the streets of the Bronx to CEO, Marcos wants to take the guessing out of pricing.
For the first episode of Street Pricing, Marcos talks about his beginnings in the Bronx, raised by a single mom, and his love of technology and figuring things out.

After his mother passed away, he moved to San Diego with his grandmother. (10:30)
He received a degree in Management Science from the University of California San Diego. Out of college, Marcos worked as a Financial Analyst and eventually worked for a bank pricing interest rates for auto loans. (15:10) Marcos learned there was a need for expert pricing and understanding the psychology of the consumer and product is a crucial part of pricing. (19:37)

(24:25) He talks about his pricing strategy and psychology of numbers and how he “gets street” with companies to get their products to the right price. (28:07) In 2022, Marcos took his knowledge to print and published Street Pricing: A Pricing Playlist for Hip Leaders in B2B SaaS. (32:16)
Marcos talks about the future of the Street Pricing Podcast and the exciting things to come!
