Your prices need to match your promises

marketing help, prices, fees

Here’s a quick marketing tip, which can help you significantly increase sales or attract more clients. It could give you a powerful, competitive advantage!

It starts with understanding that your prices (or fees) are a part of your story. An important part, too. They allow a prospective client to determine where you fit in. Your prices clearly state, in hard figures, whether you regard your goods or services as budget, high quality or somewhere in-between.

So, are your prices consistent with your story?

Prices and promises

Your business will struggle, if you claim to offer a great service… yet charge an average or below average fee. Prospective customers and clients know that premium services come at a premium. So when your marketing is all about quality, but your prices are all about cheap or average, they immediately sense something is wrong.

It’s the same as claiming to offer a bargain basement service, then quoting a premium price for it.

In both cases, you give prospective customers a mixed message. This instantly dents their trust and when that happens, you lose them. A sale, sales lead or new client enquiry is lost.

I don’t want that to happen to you. So, here’s what you need to know!

How to get it right

If you want to attract more sales or client enquiries, you need to get the balance right. It’s not difficult.

  • To attract premium customers, charge a premium and explain exactly what they will get for that extra investment. This is how you sell successfully to premium customers.
  • To attract price-conscious customers, charge a bargain price and explain how you manage to keep your prices so low. This is how you sell successfully to price-conscious customers.

Just don’t mix the two!

Premium customers will be put off by bargain basement prices and cost-conscious customers will be put off by premium prices.

7 Things you need to know about Worry!

Here are 7 things you need to know about worry, including a more helpful alternative. Stop Worrying Worrying doesn’t make things better. In fact, it’s 100% counter-productive. Worrying is a hideous waste of your time. Time is your most valuable resource. Worrying is infectious to your clients and customers. You can usually tell very quickly, when a business owner is worried about business. It’s common for people to pull their accounts from vendors, who they believe may be about to go broke. Worrying causes you to make bad decisions. The vast majority of things we worry about, either never happen or when they do happen, were nothing to worry about. Worrying causes you to feel worse [and worse and worse]. Worrying is the lowest possible use of your amazing imagination. When we worry, we use our mind as a movie theatre, which plays the worst case scenarios of whatever we’re worrying about, over and over again. Instead, change the movie. Use your mind to build images of what you

How to Bake Marketing into your business

Image
The most successful businesses bake marketing into their services. In this post, I will explain what that means and why you should do the same. If you have not heard the term before, baking marketing into a service (or product) means creating something, which is of so much value and interest that people want to buy it and also tell their friends about it. This is how products like the iPhone and services like Uber grew so popular, so fast. Most small business owners do the opposite Look around you at your competitors and you will notice how similar they are. Remarkably so. In fact, their similarity to one another is the only remarkable thing about them. So, they try and undercut one another on prices or fees, out network one another or outspend one another on marketing. They are focusing their time and money in completely the wrong direction. They are trying to get people interested in something, which isn’t interesting. This is a costly, avoidable mistake. I want something
