Who Not To Ask For Pricing Advice.
Imagine this...You have just created an amazing offer/programme and the first question you ask yourself is "Hmm, what should I charge?"
The next step I'm guessing would have been that you asked your loved ones for their input and advice. It's natural, we all do. It may have been a sibling, parent, friend or partner.
Here's how the conversation may have gone.
"I've just created the most amazing programme and I'm excited to tell you about it. My clients get x amount of time with me every month and they also receive this, that and the other. - What do you think I should charge?"
NO! Stop!
You have just GIVEN AWAY your power AND welcomed in THEIR beliefs, emotions, thoughts and patterns about MONEY.
Here's what just happened...
1. They will give you their OPINION, not a clear thought through process. They won't be able to help it because their brain is not wired for entrepreneurial success.
2. Unless your loved ones have a great money mindset and a great business then they will have a very different though process about money.
3. Your loved ones also have (often hidden) beliefs about what they think YOU and what you are capable of. And they may even secretly feel envy or jealousy or worry for your wellbeing.
Most of the time they will say that what you want to charge is TOO HIGH for what you offer, (but remember they are not your dream client so you are not serving them).
They may even say that you shouldn't raise your prices or query if you should be charging at all during this current situation.
If your money mindset and wealth consciousness is not as strong as you would like it to be or you pick up people's energy easily, then you will take onboard their 'advice' and begin the spiral of self-doubt, worry, lack of clarity and your self-confidence will plummet.
Have you ever experienced those feelings?
When figuring out what to charge the process is simple. As with any business decision it begins with mindset first approach.
The figure you choose will be one you are energetically aligned with at that point in time, one that feels good when you think about the quality and support you offer. As you increase your money mindset work you will naturally increase your prices because you will learn to always be in alignment.
Know your onions. Believe in yourself. You don't need anyone's permission to be a woman of wealth, my lovely.
But I do want to give you a gentle, little reminder today that it's more than ok to earn more and receive more for the great work you do in the world.
