Build Your Product program

Hey, thank you so much for joining this course.

It started out as an idea when I’d coached a couple of people through building a productized service and becoming a CEO.

And then what I started to see, as I coached people through the process was that they were making significant changes in their life, these changes included buying a house or getting out of debt, was spending more time with the family.

And the reason that I’m here and the reason I’m spending all this money to produce all this content for you is because I’d love for you to have the same result.

So I’m not doing this to make a bunch of money or be an internet guru.

I’m doing this because I want to help you be successful in your business and have freedom in your life.

So come along and join me we’re going to have some fun.

It’s going to be difficult.

I’m here if you need some help.

On perfectionism
Trust the process: Hinkie (May 14, 2013): “We talk a lot about process—not outcome—and trying to consistently take all the best information you can and consistently make good decisions. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t, but you reevaluate them all.”

Reading: https://blog.asmartbear.com/more-value-not-save-money.html

The above article is my favorite article on pricing and positioning. I recommend you read it twice, then answer the questions below in your workbook.

I’ve highlighted the comment thread below to support this concept. The company I’m referencing is helpflow.net

Questions to answer in your workbook:

“It’s always 10x more valuable for a business to grow faster than it is for the business to save money.” Do you agree with this perspective?
How does your product create value in the way your customer already measures value?
How can you position your product as a way to align to that existing measurement?
What are your new price points?

Update the pricing section in your feature list.
