Internet Marketing – The appearance of truth!? -2

How verisimilitude – the appearance of
truth
– can improve your pricing
Another piece of research, this time
from Janiszewski and Uy in 2008, found
that the more precise the number is
remember, we’re talking about logical
purchases here – the less people are
likely to argue about it, or to push
back.
So, to bring it back to how this can
benefit us in our professional lives,
the first thing we need to identify is:
Are we selling an emotional service or
a logical one? The bookkeeping and
accounting professions are definitely
logical, which means we can tap into
the findings of this research, and use
precise numbers
(or, as I said at the
very beginning of this post –
verisimilitude) to increase how
effectively we price.
So, remember:
please don’t use rounded
numbers when you’re pricing your
services.
You’ll find you get a better
price if you make sure it has that
appearance of truth.
In fact, if you use my
Cloud pricing software, you’ll
know that you can set it to give very
precise numbers.
If you choose, you can
even use decimal points – pence or
cents – which may be useful in certain
situations.

never reveal your headline price by
