Episode 213: Questioning Your Stories About Pricing—with Deb Zahn
What stories are you telling yourself about the prices for your consulting services and are those stories causing you to underprice yourself?
In this Craft of Consulting podcast episode, I talk about questioning those stories, replacing them with what is real, and getting paid for all your value.

Episode Details
When you pick a price, you may be defaulting to basing it off of how you are feeling about yourself and assumptions about clients. In this episode, we talk about:
Creating and believing stories that cause you to work against your best interests
Listening to our chickens instead of our stories
Getting out of the loop of our assumptions
Believing the stories that make you underprice yourself
Building a story as if what you think is true about a type of client is true for all of them
Allowing yourself to imagine being able to charge a really good price for your services
Realizing that clients aren't paying for how long you've been a consultant or results just from consulting
Feeling like your price is too high to me
Recognizing that it is really tough to sit in the discomfort of uncertainty
Interrupting a story and interrogating it to see if it was actually true
Pairing price with value—always
Letting clients pick how much value they can afford
Asking yourself what stories you are telling yourself about pricing
