Is Anchoring bias hurting your sales?

9 minutes

Is your starting price telling customers more than you think? Are you anchoring expectations too low—and then working uphill to justify your real value? What happens when clients see “starting at” and then get sticker shock when the actual results they want cost more? In this episode, I challenge the use of starting prices, reveal the power of anchoring bias, and discuss how reframing your pricing approach could help you sell for value—not from the bottom.

Listen to this new 8-minute episode for a fresh perspective on presenting your prices and why a range might work better than a starting price.
