I want to offer a quick business tip today for all you entrepreneurs, coaches and experts out there.  When you are meeting with someone who wants to know what you charge, don’t divulge that information in the first meeting.  Instead, find out everything you can about their business, their dreams, their goals and what is missing for them.  Then, set up another time to discuss your special offer for them.

I made the mistake recently of responding to a friend’s request about what I charge for my platinum coaching services and answering right away- while we were jogging no less!  Although I still believe she will will invest in my services, it was a wake-up call that I need to get better at waiting to present my fees.  Even when asked on the spot.
