When you offer premium pricing in your law firm, are you including the basics that everyone has come to expect? Raising your prices can elevate you in a whole host of ways. When you raise your prices, there are some people that will simply say, that's not for me, I can't afford it. They will have a belief system that says it's a waste for me to spend a certain amount of money on this product or service.

 

In this episode we discuss:

• It’s important to know what your own rules of professional conduct are going to require and exclude.
• You don't have to price consistent with what other people in your industry are doing.
• Focus on the idea that you have power in how you communicate that impacts the experience.
• What are you saying to your prospects and clients about your business?

My favorite excerpt from the episode:

TIME: 00:17:51 (38 Seconds) 

So when I don't receive value, when the value that I am anticipating does not come to me and someone says, Oh yeah, we're going to require you to pay for that, even though at this point I do believe free coffee in a lobby at a hotel is industry standard. You are going to have a perceptual disconnect, right? You're going to give an experience to your, to your client that says we value you except with something that is small and minor and less of an inconvenience and cost to us. We're going to pass it along to you for our own benefit.
