in , , , /by

Your website homepage is cluttered. I don’t even need to look at your website to know that it’s cluttered. You may think that this doesn’t apply to you because your website home page is very simple.

The struggle you feel when confronted with landing your first client – it’s real. You’re not the only one battling through the, “I want to land the client but I also need to make money.” When you believe that this issue is unique to you it’s embarrassing to think that you’ve discounted your value, but what were you supposed to do? You needed income.

Your problem is not what you are charging. Your problem is your inability to say no.Click To Tweet

Not all value is monetary. Truthfully, there are situations where you will want to discount your rates to make certain you land the gig because you need the experience. You want to break into the restaurant marketing business so in effort to gain experience working with restaurants, you discount your monthly services so you can land that first store. No shame in that.

Your problem is not what you’re charging, your problem is not being willing to say no to opportunity.

In this Periscope replay we will cover the opportunity cost that exists with every client that comes your way. The temptation to lower your value to get a yes means that down the road you will be unable to say yes to a HIGH PAYING CLIENT because of your eagerness to land ANY CLIENT.

You finally make the decision to start building that business idea out and you secure your domain, your social media account names and setup your email. Before you know it you’re clicking away every evening from 8:45pm to 11:50pm and despite working so many hours before you go to bed you cannot point to one thing you accomplished.

In this short video, discover the core reason why you’re stuck and what getting unstuck will take if you’re truly serious about launching that business idea and creating a better future for you and your family.

Just Ask For Help

You may have noticed that the more public someone’s life is the more criticism they seem to receive. The reason why? They have made themselves vulnerable by putting their craft out for everyone to see.

Entrepreneurs are not much different. We are subject to failure and criticism unlike typical 9-5 workers because we are putting much more of who we are on the line. As a result we are knocked down over and over again. Whether by our own conscience or by others, we are knocked down.

Getting knocked down leads to inaction and inaction leads to the sensation of feeling stuck – no matter what you do you can’t or don’t move forward.

In this short video Dave Shrein reveals the secret to getting unstuck and the secret to getting up from all the “knocked down” moments you will experience as an entrepreneur.
