"Your Rate Is Too High" šŸ¤Æ

Letā€™s talk about something most of us have faced: a client or potential client saying, ā€œYour rate is too high.ā€Ā šŸ˜¬Ā šŸ˜¬


Itā€™s tough, right?Ā No matter how experienced you are as an Online Service Provider, it can shake your confidence and make you question yourself!


Hereā€™s what I want you to remember -Ā just because someone says your rate is too high doesnā€™t mean it actually is.


When this happens, itā€™s not a reflection of your worth or the quality of your work.Ā 


Sometimes clients donā€™t fully understand the value of what theyā€™re investing in. Or they just might not be the right fit for youĀ šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø


Hereā€™s how you can handle it confidently..


šŸ’¬Ā This is the industry standard rate for [insert your service offering].

Youā€™re not just being paid for your time! Youā€™re being paid for the expertise, value + the costs that come with running your business. Remember that!


šŸ’¬Ā As an Independent Contractor, [insert example: software, taxes, insurances] are all part of the service.

Clients donā€™t always see the behind the scenes investment, so a little education can go a long way.


šŸ’¬Ā Hiring an Online Service Provider is more cost-effective than hiring a full time employee.

Highlight the VALUE! Itā€™s not just about the price tag, itā€™s about the benefits you bring.


Confidence in these moments really comes from āœØClarityāœØ Knowing the value of your work (and being clear on how to communicate it) is a game changer!Ā 


If this resonates, itā€™s exactly the kind of thing we can dive into together during one of my new 1:1 sessions.


From refining pricing to finding aligned clients, these sessions are about creating a plan that works for you. You can book now or plan ahead for the new year, whatever feels right!



Keep believing in your value, youā€™re worth it Ā šŸ’™


Much love,Ā
