‘Come on down!’ ‘The price is right.’ Or is it?
Knowing what to charge your customers and how to price your products or services correctly is often one of the biggest hurdles facing many a TechPixie. It’s a struggle made worse by the fact that many of us sit down to talk about money, and just like a fickle cast member on Love Island, we immediately get ‘The Ick’ 😰.
But money shouldn’t be a dirty word, especially when it comes to business. In fact, if you want to charge what you’re worth, you need to make friends with money; you need to shake its metaphorical hand and invite it in for a G&T. Because you’ll never earn what you’re truly worth unless you recognise the value of money.
This is the message coming through loud and clear in this week’s awesome Sparkle and Thrive podcast episode. We’ve grabbed some time with a woman who knows so much about pricing she’s been dubbed ‘The Pricing Lady’ and wowzers, does she know her stuff! Tune in and we guarantee you’ll want to give Janene Liston a virtual high five.
