Recently I was asked by a prospective copywriting client the following …

‘How Much Do You Charge Per Word?’

Needless to say I was a little taken aback by the question … I had never thought of the copywriting work I do as being a certain amount of money per word. Seemed like a crazy idea to me … I mean if it is just words she was after I should have replied with $1 a word and handed her the dictionary. After all its packed full of words and I could have gone on a nice holiday.

It got me thinking though about you and your business. More importantly about how you view the work you do, how you value it and therefore how do you charge for it.

To many people in service based business charge for their services based on a rate per hour. Having come from the coaching industry I know that when coaches get together the conversation nearly always turns to the question of how much do you charge per hour.

This is akin to the question how much do you charge per word.

Here is what you must understand … your prospective customers do not want to buy words or hours of your time. What they want is a SOLUTION to their PROBLEMS!

So you must begin thinking about the VALUE you provide to your customers.

You need to ask them what it is worth to them to have the SOLUTION.

Knowing this information you then price your services based on the VALUE of the SOLUTION to the customer or client.

Let me give you an example from my business …

When interviewing prospective new clients one of the key peices of information I am interested in is the life time value of a new customer. So in other words if I help my clients develop a new marketing system that just attracts one extra client to them … what is that client worth to them.

Let us say I am talking to a Mortgage Broker who has an upfront commission of say $2,000 for each new client they bring on board. This means if I can help this Mortgage Broker to find just one new client then that puts $2,000 into their bank account … important information to know, right?

So in knowing this information I know that if I can help them find just 3 or 4 new clients then that will pay for my services. The way I then position it to my prospective client then is this … i explain to them that when we start working together if I can help you find just 3 or 4 new mortgage clients then I am free to you … and everything else after that is a bonus.

Here is the question … would you give me 3 of your clients and in return I develop for you a marketing system that will attract a life time supply of new clients?

Naturally they nearly always say YES!

Can you see how pricing your services based on the VALUE of the SOLUTION can be so powerful?

So how do you establish the VALUE of the SOLUTION you provide to prospective clients?

Well you ask them …

Lets suppose you are a Personal Trainer …. the type of questions you could ask are …

”What is it costing you not having the energy you need each day to enjoy greater success?”

A Recruitment Consultant could ask a prospective client …

“How much does it cost you each time you employ someone who is not right for the role? What does it cost you to replace them?”

A Taxation Consultant might ask …

“If I can get you $3,500 back on your Tax return … what would you do with the money?” and get the client talking about all the great things they could do that maybe they can not afford to do right now.

The key is to ask a lot of questions and have the prospective client establish the VALUE of your services for you. You need to know what are the right questions to ask of course so it requires a little planning and thought.

If you can get to the point where your prospective client is telling you what you services are worth to them … ie what the solution is worth to them, then you can easily price your services based on the value of the solution.

Now the real key to making this work is having unshakeable BELIEF in you and the service you provide. In coaching clients I find that one of the biggest shifts I can make with them is installing greater belief in their worth to the marketplace. In doing so they shift their thinking from how much can I get per hour to what is the VALUE of the service I provide and how can I price my services based on this VALUE.

How can you apply this to your business?

It is always good to get positive feedback. It validates the work you do of course. More importantly though it is great to see others creating success by applying what they learn.

So it was great to receive this email from our Inner Circle Gold Members Jo & Rick Harrison of Soulmate Success recently. They have only joined the Inner Circle a month ago but have already begun to apply a lot of the ideas and concepts behind what we have been teaching Inner Circle members.

“I have to say that I have become a “raving fan”… in a very short period of time!!! My husband is seriously worried about me as all hears is “Rod this and Rod that…” Actually he is very happy as we are very clear now thanks to what you have shared with us that we will never have a shortage of clients!!! Ever!! I believe you have increased the leads we will get on our current market strategy by at least 30% compared to what we had in mind. Not to mention the peace of mind having the 47+ generation lead ideas gives us… knowing to focus on a few to master and that there are always more, with them all gaining momentum – it is very exciting!!! You have been so generous – I have never received such extraordinary value! Thank you so much.” - Jo Harrison, Soulmate Success

Take a look at how they have created their Irresistible Offer which is the start of their Marketing Funnel by going here www.SecretsToSoulMateSuccess.com (Especially if you are looking for your Soul Mate)

What is great about Jo & Rick is that they are willing to learn the ideas and strategies to market their business more effectively … and then they IMPLEMENT it all. So many people develop an intellectual understanding of the concepts but fail to apply them in the real world. So well done Jo & Rick.

What I love about the work I do is seeing my clients go onto achieve greater success. There is no doubt that Attraction Marketing plays a huge role in the process … but when you combine it with someone who is passionate about their business and willing to work hard to achieve their goals then great things happen.

This week I would like to congratulate Ludwina Dautovic of The Red Tent Woman for achieving her first $20,000 month as a Business Coach. Ludwina works primarily with woman in business and has developed a step-by-step system for them to grow their business.

When I first started working with Ludwina I could see opportunities in her business that she may have been missing. Often we get too close to our business and miss the goldmine we may be sitting on. So with a few adjustments to her marketing funnel and systems, development of a unique step-by-step process plus a few minor adjustments Ludwinas business has taken off. In fact her average value of a new client has grown by six times.

Congratulations Ludwina!

It just goes to show that working with a Marketing Coach can transform your business. Will it work for you? Find out by requesting a Marketing Audit (Valued at $297) www.ProfitMinute.com/audit.htm

Synopsis: With the likleyhood of a global recession extremly high many small business owners fear that they may not survive. Many smart business owners however are looking at developing and implementing more effective marketing systems. The most effective marketing system for Small Business, Home Based Business and Entrepreneurs is Attraction Marketing.

Melbourne, Australia (PRWEB) August 2nd, 2008 - With the likelyhood a global recession hitting now extremely high many small business owners fear for their survival. Increasing cost of living mixed with declining consumer confidence spells trouble for small business owners many of whom have only know good economic times over the last 10 years or so.

So what is the key to not only surviving but thriving during a recession for small business owners?

Attraction Marketing expert Rod Moore of Profit Minute believes that now more than ever small business must focus on developing and implementing effective marketing systems. Most small business owners have on clue about marketing or how to attract clients. During prosperous economic times that is okay, however during recession effective marketing is critical Moore says.

The problem for small business owners is that they are typically very good at what it is they do in their business, but they lack the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively market what it is they do. The end result is that they are set to struggle during tougher economic times.

When asked what the solution is Rod Moore suggests that now is the time to be thinking about, developing and implementing the right marketing systems rather than wait until we are in the depths of recession when cash flow has dried up.

Moore says that the most effective marketing system he has come across is what he calls ATTRACTION MARKETING. This is a combination of Direct Response Marketing with an understaning of the psychology of what motivates your customers to buy. In effect it is about making your business more attractive than your competitors.

With attraction marketing you can literally attract a steady stream of new clients to your business already pre-sold on wanting to do business with you. This type of approach to marketing (which is very different from more traditional types of advertising and marketing) can be extremly powerful.

Those small business owners who embrace attraction markeing today will stand a much better chance of prospering during recession than their competitors will Moore said in a statement today.

Attraction Marketing is the most powerful way for small business to find new clients today as it is in tune with shifting consumer attitudes and the way in which people do business today. Outdated traditional forms of advertising and marketing simply get lost in the clutter and do little to create new clients.

If you are in small business, home based business or are an entrepreneur today then you would be wise to investigate how attraction marketing can greatly impact on your ability to find and attract new clients to you.

Word is getting out …

I guess it is because my client attraction system for coaches is so powerful.

Life Coaches & Business Coaches have heard about my system.

It is a system that attracts new coaching clients to you … almost like magic (but not quite). It is however the system I used to fill my pipeline with loads of new clients eager for coaching.

Today … Marketing Consultant David Newton of Today Biz rang me from Brisbane, Australia and asked if he could get the scoop. Could he be the first to reveal my attraction marketing system by interviewing me for his clients.

At first I was reluctant … but I knew you would want to be one of the first to know.

So if you are a coach, life coach or business coach … then you will want to listen in to the 44m 45sec interview as David asks me everything you need to know. I reveal my complete system and the key concepts behind it for attracting new coaching clients.

Take a listen:

Oh … I almost forgot … you will want to tell other coaches that you know to go to this site as well. Shortly we will be making our client attraction system available to just 50 coaches worldwide … thats not many when you think about it …

You only have 30 seconds ….

From the moment they land on your web site you have literally 30 seconds.

Most of them do not even last that long before they click the back button!

That’s right … if you have been scratching your head wondering why the new website you just paid $5,000 for is not working to generate you leads its because the average visitor to any site stays less than 30 seconds.

If your web site fails to engage them, capture their attention and make them want to find out more then they are gone.

You have a 30 second window of opportunity.

And what is it that will get their attention and engage their interests? Great question and the answer will transform the results you get from your website marketing.

The first thing you need is an engaging headline. It needs to be the first thing they see. It needs to be obvious and intriguing … literally drawing them in. They must read this headline and feel drawn into the next stage of your website.

The websites of most coaches, consultants and other service based businesses fail to achieve this. Your eye is easily distracted with lots of images, links that take you away from the main message and typically a weak headline.

The first thing to work on is creating a persuasive engaging (almost hypnotic) headline. When you do you will gain the attention of more of the visitors to your website.

If I were you I would seriously take another look at your website marketing strategy (only if it is not working for you now). The right strategy will double or triple your business.
