Internet Marketing – Is doubling your price ripping the client off? -2

Mark Wickersham (UK)
Almost every
time I share stories of how firms using
my techniques are able to double – or
even treble – their prices, someone in
the group will say,
“But Mark, if I’m
charging double what the firm down the
road is, aren’t I ripping my clients off?”
The answer I always give is:
Absolutely not!
Why? There are three main reasons:
2: The power of three
As long as you’ve been following my
advice, you’ll already be giving
clients a choice by offering three
pricing options.
That way, if they
decide to choose the most expensive,
it’s entirely up to them.
3: Most people’s prices are way too low
The third reason is, I think, even more
important.
I know from my research that
most accounting professionals are too
cheap.
And, when we price too low, we
have to make compromises.
Sometimes
this means we end up making less money,
or working longer hours.
Other times, though, we end up
cutting corners. Not because we want
to, but simply because
we’re up against the clock and need to
get the job done. As a result, we miss
opportunities to add value.
