Deep dives
The Impact of Free Offerings
Giving away services or products for free can inadvertently diminish their perceived value. Many contractors mistakenly believe they are providing value by offering freebies, but this often leads clients to undervalue the service. When clients perceive a price as too high, it is frequently due to a lack of demonstrated value, rather than the price itself. Contractors should consider that clients are often more impressed when they see an abundance of service rather than a reduction in price.
