Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Your good clients expect your prices to go up.

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Fast forward 10 years, I do a fair amount of public speaking.

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.

So I start doing coaching and training and I hire a...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. Generally speaking, I would say let's have a cadence. I like the cadence. I suspect you may not have had one of the speakers or a consultant come to you and say raise your prices today. So this would be a one-off where even if you're like well wait a minute we just raised our prices in September. So what? Raise them again. Most of your clients won't even notice, right? But you need to get to the point where you start to get the yes, but. Like, Doug, yeah, I wanna...
