    Pricing Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

    Pricing Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
    Welcome back to Business Unfiltered with Mercer and Jeff Sauer today's topic is Pricing Mistakes and How to Avoid Them 0:00: Mercer defines what comes to mind for him when he hears a pricing mistake. Jeff talks about pricing mistakes, including not putting the pricing on the buy button, and how that can lead to communication issues. Pricing for services is based on an estimate of effort and the team trying to get a margin in there, and also trying to maximize the profit. When providing a service, it is more about bidding from a pricing perspective, not getting the product market fit right. 3:35: Pricing and the value of the product. There is a little bit of science and a lot of art when it comes to pricing. Part of the thinking behind pricing is what is the point of the product. The 47-hour course for the measuremarketing.io brand is a low-ticket, high-quality lead that is involved with the brand. They discuss the importance of recurring revenue and recurring retainer model pricing, they don't like doing project work because they don't want to go back to the client for 10 times as much. And delve into the value-based pricing stuff, and how it covers up the mistakes that might be made. 7:10: Pricing the product. Selling the same service to a small business for $3,000 and to an enterprise for $30,000, because that is how they will buy it. How to handle stuff like that, because you don't want to feel like, you're selling to the wrong person, and they don't buy. From a service perspective, it is a lot more nuanced, because it is its value, its level of service, and it's what you can get away with. One of the big mistakes that people make is they think that it's the same service yet it's not. The biggest difference between a $3,000 service for a small business and a $30,000 services for an enterprise is the amount of back and forth to get the contract signed. 12:46: The difference between small business vs major business. 80% of the core product is the same, but the 20% that is different for small business vs major business is different. The small business trap. The challenge of working with an enterprise that is chaotic and siloed, and the importance of hiring someone who enjoys it. The definition of a small business, and why working with small businesses is a good way to make a faster impact. 16:29: Building a margin into your pricing. Pricing is a combination of three things that work together, the margin, the time and effort and the effort put in. The profit first mentality is a permanent banking solution to a problem that is a mental mental problem or a mental process. Jeff used to charge $500 an hour to do an audit. Now he was hearing no more often, he got ghosted way more at $10,000. The next evolution is to have someone follow a process and spend 80 hours doing something at five to $10 an hour. 20:50: Pricing and making mistakes. The importance of just getting started with pricing, and how it can help you find the sweet spot in what the reins of the market is going to bear for the service you're providing. How to get past the fear of charging too much or charging too little. The first step is to take what you got paid at your last salary job and divide it by 2000, multiply it by four, and add in the margins. If you want to have a profit and you want a margin, multiply that by effort and that's how you come up with your quote. The next time you do it increment by $500 or you know, 10 to 20% each time. 25:50: Pricing mistakes. When Mercer first started, he created a training video site for Wordpress to teach people how to do Wordpress. He also created a membership site in two hours. The moral of the story is when you're getting started, it's more important to get moving than to be right. The biggest pricing mistake is being afraid of making mistakes. Every time that you make a mistake is data, at the very least you are getting data. People are so afraid of failing that they sell themselves short in order to win, but those wins are just like eating a candy bar. Jeff shares his final thoughts on the topic of pricing mistakes and how to avoid them.

    Cultural Alchemy: Decoding Trends, Brands, and Society with Brand Maven - Michael Schneider

    Cultural Alchemy: Decoding Trends, Brands, and Society with Brand Maven - Michael Schneider

    Schneider’s journey will resonate particularly with those navigating the entrepreneurial realm, where challenges and triumphs often intertwine. Refreshingly Schneider challenges the conventional mindset that success breeds happiness, advocating for a shift from "Have, Do, Be" to "Be, Do, Have." finding contentment within, propelling purposeful actions, and allowing rewards to naturally follow.

    Schneider describes how with age, the entrepreneurial journey becomes a dance with escalating stakes. He highlights the crucial interplay between challenges and mental well-being and underscores the power of faith, whether in oneself or the universe, as a resilient foundation against life's uncertainties.

    In the pursuit of success, Schneider spotlights the significance of valuing relationships. He counters the corrosive nature of comparison, advocating for a focus on authentic impact and in finding solace in outward focus. By extending kindness and support to others, he has experienced personal growth. While he acknowledges personal milestones he also underscores the profound fulfilment derived from aiding others on their journeys.

    Mentorship also emerges as a guiding light in Schneider's narrative. Learning from those who've trodden similar paths mitigates avoidable missteps. He emphasizes the transformational power of translating mentorship into actionable steps.

    The Relief Society general presidency on how ‘Jesus Christ is Relief’

    The Relief Society general presidency on how ‘Jesus Christ is Relief’

    During the April 2022 general conference, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sustained Relief Society General President Camille N. Johnson and her counselors, Sister J. Anette Dennis and Sister Kristin M. Yee. President Johnson articulated the theme of their global ministry in her April 2023 general conference address, titled “Jesus Christ Is Relief”: “We can partner with the Savior to help provide temporal and spiritual relief for those in need — and in the process find our own relief,” she said. In 2022, Latter-day Saints answered the call to provide relief as the Church engaged in 3,692 humanitarian projects in 190 countries and territories — with 6.3 million hours of volunteer work and $1.02 billion in expenditures. The Relief Society leaders join this episode of the Church News podcast to talk about faith, Jesus Christ and relief

    I Am the Good Shepard

    I Am the Good Shepard

    John 10:11-18

    “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it.13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.14 “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me—15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep.16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again.18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”

    God is the Shepherd of Israel

    Interview with Chris Maughan - Co Founder and CEO of I-PRAC

    Interview with Chris Maughan - Co Founder and CEO of I-PRAC

    It was my absolute good fortune and privilege to interview one of the leading speakers in the Short Stay Rental sector, Chris Maughan recently, which is full of practical knowledge and insights that you can apply to your SA business right away!

    You may know of Chris as CEO of I-PRAC, which is key to building trust with your potential guests, but did you know he has 20 years’ experience in the industry as CEO and co-founder of AES Accommodation Ltd and AES Events Group?

    Providing events for commercial clients such as Twitter, Google, Spotify and Disney including beautiful places to stay along the French Riviera, has meant that Chris and his wife, also his business partner, have been through their share of challenges.

    The way that Chris has managed not just his business, but also his mindset, is incredibly inspiring and thought-provoking.

    You can benefit from his reading and podcast lists, which he has generously given to me, especially in the face of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Chris shares how, despite harsh life lessons, you can find ways to overcome traumas to become fulfilled.  A treat for us all.
