This is not a fight
|
Time and You. It's not a fight. It cant' be won. Sure, you want to do more stuff. But is it, though? What if you could do LESS, in less time? Time is nothing but a constraint.

Third, pick all of them and group them by themes. Now, choose the most relevant. That's your one thing. :) |

What they do care about is having certainty. And when you can guarantee certainty in your prices, you have a lever point compared to your competitors.
This might be the time of the year where you start rethinking your prices for 2026. And the story will repeat in (the end of) 2026. And 2027. And 2028. I could be totally wrong: Will your prices change because of inflation? Or because you need to charge 5% more? Maybe 10% more? To keep up with the market? Do you want to rethink your prices? Stop thinking in year by year. Entertain this thought. You can discard it when it makes no sense. What if you would be able to charge a price that would...
