Do you feel like you're providing more customer service than you can afford to deliver? Maybe you can sustain it for your first couple of clients, but is this scalable? Are you trying to differentiate yourself by offering a higher degree of customer service than your competitors but you still can't charge the rates you need? These are all things you are going to get clarity on during this workshop session.

The problem is the concept of “good customer service” looks different in different industries. For example, good customers service in a restaurant is not at all the same as good customer service from a digital marketing consultant. So, let's get some clarity on exactly what good customer service is and how it is different today, especially for WordPress consultants and web designers.

During this workshop session you will discover:

• What the “old style” of customer service is
• The difference between the old style of customer service and the new way to genuinely serve your clients.
• Three major problems with the old approach to serving your clients
• How to make the shift and authentically serve your clients at a higher level than ever before in today's new web design and digital marketing economy
• How to charge 5x to 10x more than your competitors without pricing yourself out of the market.

Have you been wondering if the copy on your website is carrying the right message to attract high-value clients?

After personally reviewing literally hundreds of websites for WordPress consultants and web designers, there are three major mistakes that most people make in their messaging and it's totally wrecking their results. Rather than attracting and winning high-value, long-term clients it is having the exact opposite effect on both sides of the coin. First, it is scaring away the great clients they are looking for. Second, it is attracting the cheap, low-budget work-you-to-death clients they are trying to avoid.

In this session you will discover the three ways to dial-in your site's copy and messaging so that you're talking to the people you are actually trying to attract.

If you want to protect yourself from the low-budget, stressful, waste-of-time projects while attracting the high-value, long-term clients who you can genuinely help… AND you want your website to contribute to this goal, this session is for you!

There are three approaches to WordPress development. All three are legitimate, but they all result in different paths for your business.

We're going to explore each path so you will discover the best approach that will enable you to hit the goals you have for your career and your business.

The surprising thing is that these three approaches are not linear, or sequential. For example, a lot of people think they can start out just implementing WordPress sites – putting themes and plugins together. Then they'll learn to write some code… maybe build a custom plugin. Then they'll start winning high-value jobs once they have more advanced skills. The truth is, it doesn't work like that.

Stop doing what everyone else does and get clarity on how to develop your skills, your mindset, and your business to make your dream job your reality.

Why aren't you charging more? Is it because you're not worth more or is it because you'll lose your clients and price yourself out of the market if you double your rates?

I'll tell you right now, I'm working with WordPress developers who have gone from selling $500 projects to $5,000 projects and – not only did they not lose clients – their clients are actually thanking them. But there's a catch – and that's what we're going to be talking about in this session.

During this session you're going to discover the secret to raising your rates dramatically without pricing yourself out of the market. I'll also tell you why I paid someone $1,000 just to check a checkbox in the WordPress admin dashboard for me… and I was thrilled to do it!

• If you want to differentiate yourself from all the low-budget developers out there…
• If you want to go beyond just hacking out quick, cheap projects…
• If you want to build a business that makes a difference for you AND your clients…

This is the next step you need to take to build your business the right way – right now!
