I often get questions about pricing! Wondering what you can charge as a newbie? Or maybe you’re still thinking about your online business, wondering if you can make enough money to ditch your 9-5 and make your dream project your full-time job?
My answer is straightforward: You will charge whatever you believe your value is.
I love this quote: KNOW YOUR WORTH. THEN ADD TAX.
Setting your pricing can be pretty paralyzing when you do it for the first time. But you didn’t start your online business to work for free, right?
Let’s say you’re a virtual assistant. Many other virtual assistants are doing what you are doing. You could have the same skill, abilities, turnaround time, customer service, etc., and charge two wildly different amounts.
WHY?
Because pricing is 100% a mindset game!
How much confidence do you have in yourself and your work? So yes, your success as a virtual assistant (or as a web designer, copywriter, etc.) is absolutely 100% dependent on what’s happening in your mind!
You’ll be afraid when you will decide on your pricing.
You’ll be afraid when it is time to decide to raise your prices.
But no one will give you permission to charge more. Be ready to make your own decisions!
Becoming your own boss is an emotional rollercoaster, so be ready! Having the right mindset will make all the difference between failure and success.
Wondering what you should read before pricing your services? We often have negative thoughts popping up left and right… if you do, you need to read ”You are a badass” by Jen Sincero! Get this book and learn how to use The Force to kick some serious ass! With full of hilariously inspiring stories, advice, and easy exercises… you’ll identify and change the self-sabotaging beliefs and behaviors that stop you from getting what you want and creating a life you love.
What about you? Are you dreaming that one day you will say,“‘I can’t believe I get paid this much to live my dream?”
