Episode #37 - How To Decide What You Charge (And When To Give Yourself A Raise!)
Stacey loves to create episodes based on your requests and today she delivers with a topic that is on the “Most Wanted List” for a LOT for her P&P People. Stacey is bringing the FUN to talking MONEY, Honey (and the mindset that MUST goes along with it!) In this episode, Stacey is going to reveal her unique system for HOW to price your services (and NO, she is not going to tell you how much to charge!) Stacey is going to help us look at the different components that go into deciding your pricing so you can leave the episode IMMEDIATELY knowing exactly what work you GET to do (in your business or brain) and most importantly what action you WANT to take. Stacey’s intention is to share some factors about your funds to sort out, think about and give you guidelines that you will find useful when it comes to the bread-and-butter of your Biz. Settle in because Stacey is going to teach you the money mindset and strategy that you need to grow and scale your Passionate & Prosperous Business.
Stacey knows that you are listening to this show because you are a P&P person that wants your own business and wants to do things your own way. She also realizes that you may be experiencing a little angst over how to price your services. She is here to tell us that there is no law, rule, or keeper of the cost. You are the only person who is going to know when you are in alignment with an investment. But you may want some coaching, support, and guidance so that you know that you are using a smart approach for what you are charging at any given time (because it’s going to change). Listen in as Stacey reveals the work you can do to make these decisions and keep on keeping on in your evolutionary journey.
In Episode 37, Stacey asks (and answers!) the questions she hears repeatedly. What are the strategies that go into creating your initial investment and what goes into the thought process when it is time to raise your rates? Stacey is NOT giving us rules but rather recommendations she feels passionate about because it’s what WORKS for her and her clients. It comes from a long exploration on values, energetic alignment, feeling connected, on vibrations, best practices and how to really think about things when it comes to the master plan for your business. Tune in as Stacey gives us guidelines that will allow our very own brains to formulate an answer to these BIG queries for our Biz.
Stacey gives it to us straight up, if you want to have your PP life and business on your terms you have to invest in what it takes. That means not only showing up for your clients and creating content but the work that you must do on yourself. This means being in energetic alignment with your offer, your mindset around money and what people are investing in. This is the work of being an entrepreneur and (as Stacey loves to prompt us) what you NEED to do if you want to be successful.
Stacey is always by our side to help us on that journey. Today in your earbuds she relays the tools we need to do the money mindset work and reminds us that the priceless perk of being an entrepreneur is what makes it possible for YOU to have limitless vision, boundless freedom, and eternal evolution if that’s what you WANT for you P&P Life and Biz!
In this Episode Stacey Covers:
Why Stacey will never tell anybody that she thinks their investment is too high
The model of thinking about our pricing that Stacey MUST help us shift away from
The connection between inner energetic alignment (seeing yourself as someone who can expand and grow) and raising your investment
Why you need your first investment to be comfortable enough for you so that you can say it easily (and without throwing up!)
When to up your investment (And why Stacey thinks you should give yourself a raise right NOW!)
Why it’s important to base your investment on how valuable you think your offer is (see Episode 17: How to Create a PASSIONATE OFFER That People Want)
Why getting a no (or 2 or 3) at your new investment is not a sign that you shouldn’t have raised your rates (and what you should do to get the YES!)
Why it drives Stacey crazy when business coaches go on and on about how much money they make (see Episode 10: Six Figures is Just a Math Problem) and what you need to look for in a business coach that will get you the RESULTS you want
The way to decide what you need to charge to show up 1,000 percent for the people who are paying you (because your client deserves nothing less than that)
How to have a conversation with the part of yourself that’s going to STEP UP and deliver the offer when you want to raise your investment
