Summary:

Jared Erni discusses the importance of increasing perceived value by increasing prices. He shares a story about a client in the HVAC space who was undercutting himself by charging too little for his service calls. Jared challenged the client to add an extra $100 to his next service call, and the client ended up adding $250. The client was surprised to find that the customer not only accepted the higher price but also bought additional services, resulting in an extra $800 in revenue.

Jared explains that increasing prices can increase perceived value and help businesses grow. He emphasizes the importance of competing with value rather than price, as competing on price can lead to a race to the bottom. By focusing on convenience, quality, and value, businesses can sell the transformation and create more value than what customers expect for the price. This approach attracts higher-quality clients who are willing to pay more for the best.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Increasing prices can increase perceived value and help businesses grow.
  2. Compete with value, not price, to avoid being viewed as a commodity.
  3. Sell the transformation and focus on convenience, quality, and value to create more value than what customers expect for the price.
