114: The One Thing You Need To Do To Make More Money w/ Blair Enns

How do you charge your clients more with confidence? I know many creatives like us have trouble asking for more money because they're afraid that it will somehow pollute their craft or drive away customers. Don't fall into this trap! I'm really excited to have a guest today, Blair Enns, who knows all about offering great value to your clients and successfully charging more without feeling bad about it. Blair possesses a truly amazing mind and an amazing gift to be able to help people like you and me. If you've heard of him, it's likely because of his book, The Win Without Pitching Manifesto. Honestly, this book has changed the way I engage with my clients. In addition to his books, Blair runs a training program where he and his team of coaches help other entrepreneurs win more business. This episode is all about what Blair says is the number one thing you need to do to make more money. We chat about two differentiators which will allow you to charge more from your clients, how price anchoring will help build your confidence and increase revenue, and helpful ways to push back against a client. Blair also shares how to get over the limiting belief that charging more will turn you into a greedy person. We go on to talk about the importance of specializing so that you can stand out from the competition and show your clients the value that you will provide them. Is something stopping you from raising your rates? Have you gone ahead and done it and seen results? Tell me all about it in the comments on the episode page! In this episode: Why you should double what you're charging your clients (but probably won't) The role that self-esteem plays in your ability to close more high payoff sales Pushing back against a client's objections in a way that is helpful and builds confidence Understanding that there are no moral problems with making more money How creating extraordinary value for your clients will ultimately lead to other kinds of success How to help people to want to work with you instead of trying to simply convince them that you're good enough Why every client should have a different value-based pricing plan Quotes: "You can [charge multiples of what you've been charging] but you have to think about what it is that you do and what it is that the client is buying differently. And then you have to frame it differently. And when you do it right you won't be pulling a fast one on the client, you'll actually be creating more value for the client and you'll have them willingly pay you more because you're now thinking about the engagement differently." [13:33] "If you're struggling with confidence, you need to work on options. -- wherever possible, increase your options." [17:07] "'No' isn't the end if you don't want it to be the end; it's just the beginning of whatever happens next." [20:17] "We need to get over this idea that money is somehow sullied and that we should only ever want so much. You are allowed to want whatever you want for whatever reasons you want." [28:48] "It's not just a matter of raising your rates, you have to change the way you price. You have to change the way you think about pricing."

It begins with being part of your client's team so that you can work together as smoothly and openly as possible. We talk about how it also comes from having intentionality and purpose in your work so that it aligns with your values.

110: How To Know Your Worth & Charge It w/ Chris Do

How do you handle a call from an interested client if you know that they're also looking at other companies? What price do you quote them? How you handle this call might determine the entire future of your business. No pressure, right? Today, I've got an amazing guest who will put your fears and worry to ease. If you haven't heard of Chris Do, he started doing motion design back in the 90s before it was even a real thing. Chris is the CEO and chief strategist of Blind and the founder of The Futur. He has immeasurable amounts of experience in the world of video and works with some really amazing clients. Chris' work has even won him an Emmy in Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation. This not to be missed interview is about challenging the way that you approach new work. We talk about how you can create competitive estimates and how you should communicate the value of the work that you do. Essentially, this chat is about how to close that deal over the phone, and it's probably not by doing what you think. Chris illuminates so many important aspects of closing the deal. From proper mindsets and faith in yourself to recognizing and communicating exactly what your value is. We go over why you should steer clear of hour-based billing in favor of value-based pricing and even why it's a good idea to send your prospective client to the competition first. What struggles have you had when closing with a prospective client? Have you tried any of Chris' methods? Leave a comment and tell me all about it on the episode page! In this episode: The three most common struggles that creatives face and how to overcome them Why it's crazy to use hourly billing rather than basing your price on the value of your work How you can sell your client on a fixed rate when they would prefer an hourly based package The three questions that you should always be asking when closing with a potential client The most valuable mistake that Chris has ever made in his career and what you can learn from it Unrealized opportunities that creatives like you have that you may not be taking advantage of Quotes: "For some people doing the work is super easy. So they think, that was relatively easy, so I should charge relatively little; if it was really hard I would charge more. I think a lot of creatives suffer from creative guilt." [13:06] "If you're in that phase right now where you're charging based on hours, you're going to realize something really quick - it puts an artificial limit in terms of how much money you can earn. There's only so many hours in the year that you can sell." [24:05] "If you can get the project done and delivered and perfect in two days versus two weeks, that should be more valuable to the client. So the incentive to work faster, more efficiently is not there if you're doing it by the hour." [29:53] "Believe it or not, the more you try to convince the client not to hire you, the faster they want to hire you." [33:05] "Maybe the most valuable mistake that I seem to still struggle at and make consistently is that I partner up with people. I've learned over time that I'm not a good partner. I don't take direction well. I want to do things my way, and when I start to compromise I start to lose that fire, that spark that gets me up in the morning." [38:40] "One day you're going to realize that you have a lot more gifts to offer the world than to exchange your time for money."

109: When Is It Time To Quit Your Job & Go Freelance? w/ Josh LeClair

Too often the safety and security of a "real job" keeps us from following our own professional dreams. But for those of us who realize that we have a deeply ingrained desire to do something else, to follow our own creative journey, the time comes where we have to take that scary leap and give it a go. Today's guest just did something amazing and terrifying, he quit his job of four years and went full-time freelance. Josh LeClair, a Studio Sherpas Community member, now has his own freelance business based in northern Michigan and has been working with some really great brands. In today's interview, Josh shares his journey of deciding on a career as a photographer and then pursuing it on his own terms. The decision was full of uncertainty but not regrets. We consider just what goes into a move like this and how to know when you're ready. We also talk about how you can best help clients. It can only come from forming a relationship with them in which they trust you to do the best work for them. We discuss how to identify a client's area of need and how you can communicate that to them in a confident and helpful way. Are you ready to go freelance or have recently made the switch? What were your struggles and how did you overcome them? Tell me about it in the comments below! In this episode: The internal and external struggles to overcome when deciding to pursue a creative freelance career Knowing when you're ready to take the leap and go freelance The less than glamorous but crucially important parts of starting a business and how to prioritize them How to find and keep clients when you first go freelance by directly reaching out to them to form a connection Quotes: "The pure joy that comes with learning and growing and building this business has been absolutely amazing, even over the last four years. So that's what led me to step out on my own." [12:39] "The way that I'm getting a lot more work is just educating; sitting down with clients and talking about them and what they think their needs are and going over what we can provide for them. And that's really what's gotten me a lot of work." [22:25] "If there's anybody out there who's actually thinking about doing this or it's been on their mind for a while, I want you to realize that there's a ton of people who don't do this immediately. They've gone through being an assistant, multiple jobs. It doesn't matter what it is. Every one of those experiences you can take away something and you can learn so much." [32:44] "I can't tell you how exhilarating it is for me to finally send that email that I'm resigning, I'm done, my business is on its way, and I'm going to do this thing and I'm going to see wherever it takes me."

108: Why Working With National Brands Doesn't Have To Be Out Of Reach w/ JP Bolles

Working with national brands doesn't have to be some crazy, out of reach goal. In fact, being the director of a creative video company who does this work doesn't have to a pipe dream! All it takes is a little ingenuity, bravado, and a sense of adventure. Today's guest took a chance while working as an editor for a talent agency. JP Bolles admired the work of his Adam, the owner of Sandwich Video, and when he saw he was looking to bring someone on board, reached out. Together, JP and Adam have built a company of 20 employees and work with brands across the country. In this interview, we talk about what it takes to be a creative director of a large, and growing, creative company. We look at the creative process and how you should start to share your projects with your clients, even when it might be taking longer than you thought it would -- and what was agreed. And perhaps most amazingly, we're looking at Sandwich Video's collaboration with Wistia. This documentary, One, Ten, One Hundred, is a behind the scenes look at creating ads with different budgets. An important takeaway from this documentary is not letting your equipment or budget hold you back from creating something incredible. How do you talk to your clients when things aren't going as planned? When's the last time you reached out to collaborate with someone you think is out of your league? Let's talk about it in the comments on the episode page! In this episode: Why you shouldn't be afraid to reach out to people you admire for collaboration opportunities How to navigate talking to clients when a project is taking longer than expected What the best way to share projects with clients is and why it works How a client's budget impacts an ad outcome and how you can work within a client's budget Why your equipment shouldn't hold you back from filming your passions Quotes: "Are we proud of this project and can we take on this client and actually help move them into a better position?" [7:16] "It's so easy to have all the anxieties and outside pressure come into the way of things. I mean, it happens to absolutely everybody, even if you have a big ego. You second guess things you're not sure of and all that does is create a worse environment for you to work in." [41:07] "Knowing that if it's a flop, if it fails in whoever's eyes - it's okay. And to be okay with that, to learn from the mistakes that we might have made along the way and to grow and become better. Those things are gonna happen. So follow your intuition. Do that thing. Don't not do it!"
