People don't care about your program unless you're already strongly established and the program is recognizable by name! Focus on your potential client and their specific situation. Keep it about them! Really listen to what they're saying and what they need, then fill in your expertise.

Another reason, other than profitability, to do market research is to gather the pain points of your ideal clients, in their own words. Then, use that wording in your marketing.

Selling your services by hour or by session is not going to help you in the long run. Set one rate, with one package. No more piecing it together.

Potential clients can tell if you're confident in your offer or not! Offering too many different services is confusing and it erodes trust with your audience.
