In a way, that is what is occurring in the learning system space today. I would love to tell you that nobody is paying outrageous fees for the privilege of buying a learning system. In the early months of 2022, many vendors are surpassing that. A band for most vendors was 1,000 to 5,000 end users for example, now?

This is because many vendors behind the scenes use “range pricing,” and the ranges often end at 2,500, before moving up to the following range. This is not universal, and there are vendors who will get a better deal if you swing up to 3,000 – and your actual user base is 2,600 or 2,200, for example. Think about that.
