Key Takeaways

The Danger of Hourly Rates:

• Hourly rates don't reflect the long-term value you bring to clients.
• Trading time for money caps your income and limits growth.

Adopt the 10% Rule

• Charge 10% of the value you add to a client's business over 12 months.
• Base your fees on outcomes, not hours worked.

Educate Your Clients on Value

• Help clients quantify their goals and the financial impact of achieving them.
• Avoid overloading your offers; focus on delivering results.

Analyze and Adjust Your Pricing

• Reflect on past projects to identify the gap between your value added and your actual earnings.
• Use these insights to have informed pricing discussions with future clients.

Learn When to Walk Away

• If a client cannot see the value in your services or refuses to pay fair compensation, it's okay to walk away.

Actionable Tips

• Review your recent projects and calculate the financial value you've delivered.
• Practice positioning your fees as 10% of your value added during client discussions.
• Reframe your pitch to focus on outcomes instead of hours or processes.
