Prices are rising, fees are multiplying, and transparency is
disappearing. In this episode, we break down how Ticketmaster,
rideshares, airlines, and even grocery stores use surge pricing,
hidden fees, and algorithmic pricing to squeeze more out of
consumers. Fractional CFO Elaine Bogart joins us to explain the
financial mechanics behind these tactics and whether personalized
pricing is fair game or a violation of trust. We explore equity,
transparency, surveillance pricing, and what it would take for
companies to fix their relationship with the public. In This
Episode: • The rise of ambiguous and personalized pricing across
industries • Why Ticketmaster’s monopoly keeps driving fan
frustration • How data-driven pricing risks crossing into digital
discrimination • The difference between surge pricing and
surveillance pricing • Why transparency and trust are now business
essentials • Fixing it: what “fair pricing” could look like for
companies and customers alike Key Takeaways • Transparency is
currency. When customers understand the “why,” they tolerate change
better. • Algorithmic pricing can deepen inequality if unchecked
for bias or demographic profiling. • Profit isn’t the enemy —
opacity is. • Trust is an asset that brands can’t afford to lose in
the name of short-term gain. Guest Elaine Bogart – Fractional CFO |
