    Why I Refused To Discount And Had My Biggest Year Ever

    If you’re constantly being asked to “just do a quick favour,” lowering your prices to keep clients happy, or feeling weird about charging what you’re actually worth… you NEED to hear this. Right now, with tighter budgets and more competition, it’s easy to slip into undercharging, over-delivering, and giving away your expertise for free just to stay relevant.

Tune in to discover ✅Why discounting your services can quietly damage your business ✅The difference between being flexible vs. devaluing yourself ✅What people are really saying when they ask for “free advice” ✅How undercharging creates imbalance, resentment, and burnout ✅Why higher prices often lead to better clients and stronger results ✅The connection between money, energy, and sustainable business growth ✅What changes when you start treating your expertise like it actually matters Key moments: 00:00  Intro 01:20  Why discounting without reason is a hill worth dying on 02:00  Meeting someone's budget vs. being bargained down 03:40  What your prices are really telling the universe 05:00  The "quick question" problem 06:40  What people are actually saying when they ask for free 08:40  The one-line script that redirects unpaid requests 09:00  The PT example: tiered support done right 10:40  Money as energy exchange 11:40  Why incomplete exchanges breed resentment 15:00  The $650 coaching call I was excited to pay 16:40  If premium prices trigger you, read this 19:00  Why higher prices create higher perceived value 20:40  Skin in the game: why paid clients actually do the work 21:40  What happened when I raised my prices 30% 22:40  Know your worth, then add tax - 👉Find out more about how we can work together: https://iconiccoaching.com.au/coaching/ - 👉Here’s how to connect: https://www.instagram.com/tellmeaboutit__podcast https://iconiccoaching.com.au
