Welcome to the Art of Value Whispering podcast  

 

Today, I'm speaking to Janene Liston, a.k.a. The Pricing Lady, about the truth behind setting fair prices, and the best pricing strategies for small business owners.

 

Finding the right way to price your service is a challenge for many business owners. You want to earn a profit, but you want to be fair too. However, as Janene points out, we don't always have a clear understanding of what 'fair' means. In this episode, Janene explains where to start thinking about pricing, so you can create the right strategy for your business, now and into the future.

Join us to discover the best pricing strategies for small business owners, that will have you pricing your services fairly and confidently.

"When finding a fair price, remember to consider what is fair for you. If your team and suppliers get paid, but you don't, that's not fair" - Janene Liston

In this Week's Episode...

In this episode, you will learn:

  • When to start considering the price of your offers
  • What it means to price fairly
  • How to adjust your pricing without losing existing customers
  • The four reasons why people struggle with pricing
  • Why low pricing is rarely a good strategy for small businesses, and crucially
  • Where to start to get your pricing strategy right.

"Don't assume a lower price will make you more profitable. It very rarely happens in small businesses. Instead, play with the price/value balance. Consider increasing the value before offering discounts" - Janene Liston
