Your value is not important
|
Value pricing. There's a big misconception with it. It has nothing to do with your value —or how you perceive your own value, or how your customers have to understand what you sell to show them how you justify your prices. Or how much effort you put into it. Or how cool you are. Or how great your work is. None of it. Take yourself out of the picture. Value pricing has to do with what your customer values —what they believe is important. Value pricing takes this factor and prices in alignment with it. What you think you're worth, what effort you put to justify your prices, how you value yourself —while important in a specific setting in your business— has nothing to do with what your customers value. And how do you get to know the value? You don't guess. You ask. :) |

In diving, when you’re overwhelmed, you stop everything. Then, you breath. Assess. Decide. Same is in business. While everything seems urgent, you can only do so much. So stop, breath, assess, decide. And to get to that decision, you’ve already thought of a few ways to go about it.
Just as a band starts playing in a house, to small gigs, to more small gigs... all the way to stadiums with thousands of people. It's the same with decisions. The more controlled, low-impact, and low-risk decisions you make, the easier it is to see the patterns to move upwards. It's simpler to stir the wheel and correct direction with small decisions, than to shift everything from one decision. Quantity over quality first, quality over quantity then.
The way to choose better is by choosing more often. The way you decide better is by deciding more often. Practice. Quantity beats quality. It lets you make decisions that train your judgment. You won’t ever have all good decisions. Yet making a decision (even a shit one) can let you stir the boat and correct direction. Waiting for it to disappear won’t fix it.
