SPARK Strategic Business Solutions

Well, 2023 is well and truly here! 🙌

We are back in full force, ready to hit some big business goals, support existing and new clients, and have some exciting products about to hit our website in the next few weeks.

This year is all about expansion! We outgrew our last space (almost too quickly tbh!), so we are now nestled in at .wa 🤗 ready to support local Perth businesses, whilst still offering our online strategic support services, Australia-wide!🇦🇺

What are your business goals for this year? We would love to hear all about them (and cheer you on!) in the comments.⤵️

How often has someone told you "your prices are too expensive"? 😳

The likelihood is if you are in business, you will hear this more than once. How you react is what will set you apart from your competition...

Any time I am told my prices are too high or unaffordable, I take a step back and ask myself 3 simple questions:

1. Are they my IDEAL client?

✅ If yes, I continue to question 2.
❎ If no, then I stop right there, reply respectively and move on.

2. Have I been CLEAR in my service messaging - do they know the value they are getting for that price?

✅ If yes, I continue to question 3.
❎ If no, then I review my sales page/promotional material and make the changes required that ensure my ideal client is seeing the value in my service, experience, and skill set.

3. deep down, how do I FEEL about the price?

✅ If I feel great about the pricing, I reply respectively, outlining the value they will receive, and move on.
❎ If I don't feel great about my pricing, I will do a review, crunch the numbers (hey we have to be making a profit in our business!), and adjust accordingly.

Note - if you get to Question 3 and realise your pricing is too low, increase it!

Just remember you are in control of your business!
What you offer isn't for everyone, nor should you be marketing to everyone.

What do you think? Do you have any tips when being questioned about your pricing? I would love to hear them, drop them in the comments below! 👇️

Thea

Did you guess correctly with the little hints that have been popping up in the last week?

Well, the time has come...

Just Ask Thea is upgrading to SPARK Strategic Business Solutions! ⚡️🎉

There comes a time in business (maybe more than once) when we outgrow the previous cycle. Whether that's our business name, the services we offer, or perhaps even the number of team members we employ. Growth isn't something to be scared of, honestly, I find it quite exciting!

So with that, and my BIG plans for 2023, I decided that I needed to level up from Just Ask Thea to a name that was precise, stood out, and reflected exactly what I want my business to stand for.

SPARK

Over the next few weeks, you will see some upgrades to our socials, website, and the education we provide. I say we, as I am also expanding the team (more on that later!)

Having an aligned business has always been one of my main goals. SPARK is definitely ticking that off the list!

Its time to close out 2022 with a BANG! 💥
