Key takeaways
Reasons to raise your prices
- You’ll have more time. TIME to spend how you want. Because you have to work less, to get enough money in. Your family benefits from more quality time, and you get more relaxation.
- You’ll have more money. You can spend it on your community. You can invest in learning. Maybe get a housekeeper or hire a food service (giving you more time).
- You’ll afford to grow your business. You will have the time and money to invest back into your business. This is essential for long-term success.
- You’ll create a better client experience. Because you need fewer clients, you can make each experience more special. You will have happier clients. This means more positive reviews and referrals.
- You’ll encourage your colleagues to increase their prices too. When you set prices that sustain you, others can do the same.
