About

Dr. Marlene Jensen

Hi and welcome!

I’m Marlene Jensen, and I’m a serial entrepreneur (11 businesses & still counting!) who fell in love with pricing.

…Because nothing made more difference in the success or failure of those businesses than did pricing. Smarter pricing in just one business paid for my house. And it can do the same for you!

My second passion is for entrepreneurs — my favorite people! I volunteer locally with SCORE (Service Corps of Retired Executives), even though I’m not actually retired(!) It’s wonderful to help people launch their dreams — or turn their frustrating, never-ending hamster wheel of a business into one profitable enough to let them breathe again.

That’s why I’ve added a section to this website just for creators/entrepreneurs. It will focus primarily on new businesses with next-to-no money and next-to-no staff. I’ve launched (and helped launch) several businesses on the cheap — and will show you how you can as well!

BTW, if you have some advice for entrepreneurs — something that will help them succeed bigger and/or faster — drop me a note. I’d love to post your help in the Entrepreneurs Help Section! I’m at Jensen at PricingPsychology.com.
