Services — Service Definition

We define it. You sell it.

Cloud business consulting for providers who want to sell VPS, Kubernetes, and managed cloud services. We design your product catalog, pricing strategy, and go-to-market positioning — then wire it all into the platform.

What We Deliver

From idea to sellable product

Three pillars of service definition — catalog design, pricing strategy, and go-to-market packaging. Everything your sales team needs to start closing.

Service Catalog Design

We define your entire product lineup — VPS tiers, Kubernetes plans, managed databases, add-ons. Each product gets clear specs, pricing logic, provisioning rules, and customer-facing descriptions.

SKU structure
Feature matrix
Catalog taxonomy

Pricing & Monetization Strategy

Flat-rate, usage-based, tiered, or hybrid — we model pricing that maximizes revenue without scaring off customers. Competitive analysis, margin calculations, and upsell pathways included.

Go-to-Market Packaging

How your services appear to customers matters. We create the naming, descriptions, feature comparisons, and landing page content that converts browsers into buyers.

Pricing Strategy

The right model for your market

We help you choose and implement the pricing model that maximizes revenue for your specific products and customers.

Flat-Rate

Simple monthly price per plan. Predictable for customers, easy to sell. Best for standardized products like VPS tiers.

Best for: VPS, hosting plans

Usage-Based

Pay for what you use — CPU hours, storage GB, bandwidth. Maximizes revenue from heavy users while staying accessible to small ones.

Best for: Object storage, bandwidth

Tiered

Good-better-best packaging with clear upgrade paths. Each tier includes more resources, features, or support level. Drives natural upselling.

Best for: SaaS, managed services

Hybrid

Base subscription plus usage overages. Combines revenue predictability with upside from growth. The most common model for cloud providers.

Best for: Cloud platforms, K8s
Engagement Model

From market research to revenue

A structured process that takes you from "we have infrastructure" to "customers are ordering."

Phase 01 Discover

Market & Business Analysis

We analyze your target market, competition, existing infrastructure capacity, and business goals. Who are your customers? What do they need? What are competitors charging? This phase produces the strategic foundation for everything that follows.

Market research
Competitor analysis
Customer segmentation
Capacity audit
Phase 02 Model

Product & Pricing Design

We design your service catalog — product tiers, resource specifications, pricing models, and feature bundles. Every product is modeled as a structured entity ready for the Cloud Platform platform with provisioning rules, quotas, and billing integration.

Pricing models
Feature bundles
Resource specifications
Phase 03 Configure

Platform Implementation

We configure your products in the Cloud Platform platform — catalog entries, provisioning templates, approval workflows, and billing rules. Your customers can start ordering as soon as we're done.

Phase 04 Launch

Go-to-Market Support

We help you launch — marketing materials, comparison tables, pricing pages, and sales playbooks. Plus ongoing optimization: A/B pricing tests, churn analysis, and new product recommendations based on market demand.

Why Cloud Platform

Not just consulting — execution

We don't leave you with a PDF. Every product we define gets configured in the platform, ready for customers to order.

Revenue-First Thinking

We don't just define products — we design revenue engines. Every service tier, pricing decision, and feature bundle is optimized for conversion and margin.

Platform-Native

Every product we define is immediately configurable in the Cloud Platform platform. Catalog, provisioning, billing, portal — all connected. No manual wiring needed.

Data-Driven

Pricing decisions backed by competitive analysis, margin modeling, and customer willingness-to-pay research. Not guesswork — structured methodology.

Ongoing Optimization

Products aren't static. We provide quarterly reviews with churn analysis, pricing experiments, and new product recommendations as your market evolves.

FAQ

Common Questions

Absolutely. Most engagements start with an audit of your existing catalog. We analyze sales data, churn patterns, and competitive positioning to identify gaps, pricing issues, and bundling opportunities. Then we recommend specific changes with projected revenue impact.

We use a structured methodology: cost analysis (infrastructure + operational costs per product), competitive benchmarking (what similar providers charge), value-based assessment (what customers are willing to pay), and margin modeling. The result is a pricing structure that's competitive yet profitable.

Yes. Every product we define gets configured in the Cloud Platform platform — catalog entries, provisioning templates (OpenStack/Proxmox flavors, VMware limits, OpenShift quotas), billing rules, and approval workflows. Your products are live and orderable when we're done.

A standard engagement takes 3-5 weeks: 1 week discovery and market analysis, 1-2 weeks product and pricing design, 1 week platform configuration, and ongoing GTM support. For providers with existing catalogs needing optimization, it's typically 2-3 weeks.

Yes. We regularly help providers expand into new verticals — telco to enterprise, hosting to managed services, single-region to multi-region. We research the target market, define new products, adjust pricing, and create go-to-market materials for the expansion.
