Choosing revenue means choosing vanity. It means that what's important is what goes into the business. The today, rather than the long game. It dilutes the way you make decisions, because it's revenue over all. It dilutes your power to say no. It pushes you to comply with what your customer demands. And when revenue is not hitting the mark, you stench of desperation. So you get pushed down. To what they say. In fear. Revenue is not all.

The price you set is not a reflection of you. The price you set is not a reflection of your worth. It's not a reflection of your effort. It's not a reflection of your passion. It's not a reflection of yourself. You're not your price. You're not a brand.

By agreeing with the objections. "It's too expensive." It is. "The price is ridiculous." It might be. "Why so expensive?" That's the price. "But it's SO simple." You're right. It's not your job to convince anyone —or to talk anyone into buying. Your job is to qualify early and bring those objections yourself at the beginning. The best way to defend your price is by making peace with your price. If you think it's too expensive, they will too.
