Charge What You're Worth

By Jim Palmer

We’ve all heard the phrase “work smarter, not harder.” Well, I’m here to tell you if you’re not charging what you’re worth, chances are you’re working much harder than you need to be.

We all have God-given talents, but to be a truly successful entrepreneur, it’s important to know what that knowledge is worth. It’s equally important to not let your talents or skills become commonplace, or second nature, over time. This leads to under cutting the value of the service you provide. One thing to always remember – your customer doesn’t know what you know. Your knowledge and expertise are worth something beyond the amount of time it takes you to complete a task. If you find yourself struggling with prices and worrying that you are charging too much, get over it. You are not your customer. Provide incredible value and charge what you want to charge. Charge what you’re worth.

Your knowledge and your skills have real value. Whatever it is you do, do it well, and provide incredible service. Then be certain you are charging what you’re worth. Your expertise and skill are not as commonplace as you may think, especially if you market them correctly.

The key to substantially boosting your profits is to always provide incredible value and world-class customer service, and then charge what your products or services are worth to your customers and clients, and grow your business and your bank account.
