Stressed business owner after raising prices

Let’s talk about one of the hardest parts of being a business owner: communicating that you are raising your prices. 🥴

Here are the 5 best communication practices I shared on my Path to Profit coaching call today that will help reduce your anxiety and help you feel more confident:

Timing
* Which products will you increase prices on (a blanket increase is not recommended)
* Give a minimum of 30 days notice
* Be aware of When their last increase was, because they will ask

🔎 Transparency
Let your clients know what’s changing and why. You’re not just hiking rates, you’re evolving. You’ve improved systems, refined offers, or simply caught up to your true value. 

📝 Clarity
Keep it simple on the services, products, and value you are providing. A clear message creates trust and gives your clients space to understand the change.

🤝 Integrity
Make sure you are very open about when the price change is happening and Include
* Price
* Date of price notification and price increase (be sure it is a minimum of 30 days notice)
* Product and service details - if scope has changed, add that in

Opt-In / Opt-Out
This one’s big: let your clients choose. Invite them to continue at the new rate or opt-out with grace. This honors their autonomy and keeps the energy aligned.
