Keep What You Earn

Pricing Blunders That Could Cost You Thousands

Articulating your offerings precisely can transform the trajectory of your business. It serves a dual purpose: it enlightens your existing customers about the extent of your services, including what falls outside your scope, and it acts as a magnet for potential new clients. When consumers are contemplating a purchase, their priority is to have a comprehensive understanding of what their investment entails, making transparency from the get-go absolutely essential.

 

Conversely, being forthright about what you provide is advantageous for you as the provider. Often, we might extend ourselves beyond the agreed terms out of goodwill or because a task appears straightforward. Yet, establishing firm boundaries can markedly enhance your professional relationships and pave the way for additional offerings. Sticking to your defined services can foster a mutually beneficial dynamic between you and your clientele.

[1:15] What's causing the blurred lines around your service offerings?

[2:00] Could your unclear communication be turning what should be explicit offers into implicit ones?
