This is how you stop competing on price

4 Minutes

It’s 10:00 am on a rainy, Monday morning.

The phone rings, it’s a local business owner: “I need some help.”

What a great start to the week!

“How much do you charge for…….?”

Oh, before you can get a word in, the subject of fees rears its ugly head.

They immediately tell you the lowest quote they’ve received and how they want to pay less.

You think of the years of hard work you’ve put into building your business, all to compete in the race to the bottom.

Attracting Diamonds, Repelling Duds

Yet then you think of your great clients. The clients that value you and your work.  You love working with them and the challenges they bring.

They know the premium fees they pay you are worth every penny.

So how can you filter potential clients so the diamonds stride towards you, and the doughnuts run a mile?

Your website should play a major role in quality control. It’s not just there to generate leads. It’s the doorman and concierge to your business.

It sets the scene and guides conversation, welcoming in your perfect clients and warding off those less discerning visitors.

Yet most service firms’ websites make the same unsubstantiated claims, with the same images:

‘Quality service’, ‘Leading service provider’, ‘Expert……’ you get the picture?

Brag and boast claims don’t work, they never have. They wouldn’t convince you if you heard them over the phone, so why should they convince you on a website?

Yet look at your website.

It’s not easy to get your difference across

How can you attract attention, build interest, and get potential clients walking towards you?

The answer is simple. Stop talking about yourself and focus on the problems your perfect clients face, that you’re great at helping them solve.

Instead of making unsubstantiated claims, demonstrate the results you achieve.

Let me show you how.
