You are good at what you do. Your clients get results. So why does the money never quite match the difference you make?
Here is the uncomfortable truth. Most coaches and consultants do not have a delivery problem, they have a lead generation problem, and a pricing problem. They set their fee by valuing their own time instead of the value their clients receive, then work harder every year for much the same money.
This book fixes that.
Peter Thomson has been in business since 1972, helping coaches and consultants turn their knowledge, experience and expertise into ongoing streams of cash. This is the fully updated and retitled edition of his book paid , and three new chapters for the way we work now.
