Manage episode 386145546 series 3390105
Ever wondered what key steps businesses often overlook when they're raising their prices?
In this episode, we'll take you through three critical aspects of pricing that businesses frequently overlook when adjusting their prices. Whether you're considering raising or lowering your prices, it's easy to overlook these things. Often people are afraid to change prices especially raise them and postpone it as long as possible. When they finally do it they take big risks by applying a "rip off the bandaid" approach. Trying to get it done before they panic and decide not to. In that process, they skip some really important steps that help the increase be more successful.
I'll break down the misconceptions and offer practical advice on how you can do this more effectively.
Discover the power of differentiation – why it's essential to vary price increases across your offerings, rather than applying a uniform rate. Learn how mastering the math behind pricing can give you the confidence you need to make informed decisions. And we'll look at price communication – when to make clear communications and when a subtler approach is more suitable.
Enjoy the episode. Don't miss out on the knowledge and strategies that can reshape your business's future.
