Is your pricing strategy helping or hurting your business? Most event business owners either charge too little and lose money—or charge too much and scare off clients. In this episode of the Flashquotes Podcast, we dive deep into the psychology of pricing, pricing models, and how to maximize your profit without losing customers.

Join Justin Goodhart, Zach Capshaw, and Daniel as they break down the most common pricing mistakes, the data-driven approach to setting your rates, and the psychological tactics big brands use to influence buying behavior—and how you can apply them in your event business.

Whether you're running a coffee catering company, a bar service, a photo booth business, or any event-based service, this episode will help you optimize your pricing, increase your bookings, and improve your bottom line.
