Nervous about Pricing your offer? Do this!

When it comes to pricing your offer (product or service), most get nervous.

I did too.

There is much pressure to get the price right.
It also puts an expectation up for our clients.

Not only that, we also need to drop the price in a conversation.

In reality, most of our prices are taken out of the magician’s hat.
We pick a number we like and stick with it.

It feels nerve-wracking.
Separated from reality.

In reality, most entrepreneurs overprice or undercharge.
Both of them don’t get you any clients, or they can’t live off what they make.

Both results are terrible for business.

We need to start with practical pricing.
It’s the easiest way to set a price that is good for the client and for you.

The equation is simple:
Freedom number ÷ (max number of clients) = your practical price.

There are only two things you need to know:

  1. How much money you need to make.
  2. How many clients you can serve on a monthly basis.

These are obvious numbers and shouldn’t be surprising.

Now you have your price.
That number might be scary to you, because it’s too big for your taste, or because everybody else in the industry is charging a lot more.

Both of these are fine, because we can ignore them.

Now it is on us to package as much into this price package to make the price simple to understand for our clients.

It is an easy process.
Now you don’t have to second guess yourself.

The price is set.
The bonus is that your added natural urgency as well.

    Strive for Excellence not Perfection How often do we freeze up and can’t go forward, because something we have created isn’t good enough – isn’t perfect? Way too often. I have spent so many hours trying to perfect something. Our goal is often completion, or perfection. Reaching the 100%. It seems like it is always escaping us. I want to challenge the idea of perfection. We should strive for excellence. Doing something not for 100% perfection, but rather to a 90% excellence. Perfection keeps…

    Hey Reader, I enjoy success. There is something extremely satisfying about winning. For me, success is the biggest motivation to play.

This is why the One-Dad Business is the best option for Dads to start a business. Many dabble with the idea to build a hobby business. Something they do for their hobby.

    Hey Reader, Often I feel like I could skip ahead. Like I know what it’s about and then I fast forward. This newsletter today is an important reminder for myself as well. When my son was a bit younger, like last year, he was trying to walk. He was practicing one step at a time. Now, when we’re going to the park, he loves to run around. There are situations where he is less comfortable. So he slows down. He takes it one step at a time. Obviously, it doesn’t always work. He falls down and gets…
