Cheap Isn’t A Sustainable Value Proposition (But This Is)

Jeff Bezos famously said, “your margin is my advantage,” and you’re not him.

Customers want a great deal. But a deal is when clients believe they are getting value worth more than what they paid. So the goal of any business is to get more customers to say yes at a higher price point.

When you compete on the lowest price, you enter a race to the bottom. Here’s why:

Cheap Prices

When you decrease prices, you…

  • Race to the bottom.
  • Decrease perceived value.
  • Destroy margin.
  • Decrease the value of an investment.
  • Decrease emotional investment.
  • Attract poor clients.

Is that what you want?

Higher Prices

When you increase prices, you…

  • Attract the best clients.
  • Increase the value of an investment.
  • Increase emotional investment.
  • Increase perceived value.
  • Multiply margins.

“Those who pay the most, pay the most attention,” says Alex Hormozi. The more people invest in an outcome, the more likely they’ll achieve a positive result.

When you charge higher prices, you give $100,000 worth of value for $10,000. There’s so much value; it’s a steal.

Take your business from zero to an eight-figure hero.
