The Pricing Lady

Pricing When Your Offer Isn’t the “Magic Pill”: Pricing your offer is a challenge under “normal” circumstances, but what if your offer isn’t like the “magic pills” everyone else is offering? It’s not that it’s not valuable it just doesn’t have that “sexiness” that other offers do. I shared my pricing journey; how I’ve gone about pricing my offer. I also confess I was charging way too little and learned the hard way about the pitfalls of charging by the hour. If you’re trading time for money or if your offer isn’t the coolest thing on the block, then you’ll want to watch this interview.

The Mitch Gray Show

Let’s Slay Your Marketing Tech Overwhelm with Jen McFarland: Jen and Mitch talk about life and leadership along with marketing. “A lot of technology is about making a vision come true, but that’s really what the beauty of technology can be. That’s why so many people, I think it’s magic. What you need in the beginning is somebody to say, just tell me what you want to do. I’ll see if I can make it happen for you. And that’s the essence of what an empathetic tech translator is. It’s not stopping the person and saying, well, you didn’t use the right word. It’s not explaining what technology is and what it can do. It’s actually listening to the vision and then taking it back and either working on it yourself or working with another person who will be implementing it.”
