    621: Moving Beyond Selling a Package of Hours

    621: Moving Beyond Selling a Package of Hours

    Have you noticed that the longer you do the same type of work, the more efficient you get? That is why charging hourly or selling a package of hours starts to feel less great over time.
    We teach our clients to create either a monthly or a high ticket project business model based on the deliverables not based on the number of hours it takes

    This works especially well for consultants, marketers and financial professionals.
    Elizabeth joins me in this episode and we discuss the four stages of the Retainer Roadmap and how you can specialize your services and uplevel your clients. We will share common concerns as well as examples of how the Retainer Roadmap will help you scale your business to offer a package of value instead of a package of hours.

Warmth + no nonsense biz advice

I’ve been a podcast listener off & on for years in waves when I dip my toe into the idea of a business. I’ve always appreciated Natalie’s warm yet no-nonsense content, but like everything else in life, you’re not ready until you’re ready.

A recent episode helped me see a path that makes sense for what I want & where I’m at. It even helped me articulate why I’m feeling this tug to do something different.

The BizChix podcast has reliably actionable insights for wherever you’re at.

So impactful!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for 3-4 years now and can honestly say it’s made a very big difference in my business. Natalie’s clear, encouraging, and direct communication inspires me to grow and shows me the path forward. I’ve been in the Six Figures Lab, read her book “Reset Your Mindset” and benefitted from participating in her CEO day. I’ll forever be thankful I found this podcast!

MY FAVE business podcast- Learn to grow your business, your confidence, and your bottom line!

I LOVE this podcast and am giddy like a kid on Christmas morning every time a new episode comes out. Is that because of the great business advice, the fun dynamic between Natalie and Elizabeth, or Natalie's own wit and personality? Probably all of the above. But most importantly, this podcast has given me such a rich business education in the past year of listening to episode after episode, as well as the confidence to implement what I am learning. I now hear Natalie's voice in my head when I am making business decisions, asking if my customer cares about the activity I am doing and telling me to raise my prices, establish a retainer, and do money-making activities rather than getting sidetracked on social media. I'm so grateful and excited to keep learning and growing!
