Listen Later

This episode explores why many business owners unknowingly compromise their expertise when trying to serve their clients well. If you've ever wondered whether you're truly going above and beyond or simply doing too much, this episode reveals the crucial differences.

Key Moments:

  • [] What going "above and beyond" really means in business
  • [] Three clear signs you're being taken advantage of
  • [] Setting expectations that protect both you and your clients
  • [] Why we often undervalue our expertise
  • [] Professional ways to handle scope creep
  • [] Creating sustainable systems for exceptional service
  • [] When it's time to reassess client relationships

Notable Quotes:

"Those moments when you're handling complex situations with ease? That's not just getting the job done - that's expertise you've developed over years, even if it feels completely normal to you."

"Being generous with your service is admirable, but if it starts to impact your business's sustainability or your wellbeing, it's time to take a step back."

"Clients who understand and appreciate your value will respect your pricing. Those who push for discounts or try to undervalue your work are not the ideal clients you want in the long run."
