Episode notes
Ask Why They Bought Now
- Ask incoming leads why they decided to buy now to learn triggers and objections.
- Use those answers to refine pricing and messaging instead of assuming price is the sole factor.
People Buy Results, Not Calls
- No one buys coaching; they buy the result the coaching promises.
- Frame pricing and messaging around the desired result, not the coaching format.
Check Price Versus Perceived Value
- Test whether you're overpriced by checking if the result's value exceeds the price and if it matches your clients' finances.
- Consider raising price to increase perceived value or aligning offers to your audience's ability to pay.
