Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Up Strategy - Premium Price Part 1 Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. So in our pricing strategy we need to have our Up strategy. A premium strategy that’s turn key that comes with a premium price. Now you may not end up doubled and double again you might have to bring it back down and find where the market acceptance rate would be. But it’s got to be at least twenty-five to thirty-five percent higher than your core offering. Now I don’t know how many of you remember 1985...

Carl Gould #70secondCEO
The Client Picked You Because You Are the Best Option Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO - just a little over a minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. They're not going to pay a whole bunch of money on the off chance you're good. They're going to think you're really good already. They're going to think and by the way, if you fire them, guess what they lose you and they think you're the best option, right? That's why I was in a position one time in my landscaping company where I was in a position where I had to give back the guarantee, but if I gave him back the...

Consumers Categorize Themselves by The Pricing They Pick Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.

Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Invisible Pricing - Need a Better Offer
Carl Gould #70secondCEO
Invisible Pricing - Need a Better Offer Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one-minute investment every day for a lifetime of results. A year, that means you're one in 600 people. That is 10 million or more, and we need to walk into a building that has 12,000 people in it to meet a peer. What we do is not easy, right? So you're doing all of this work only to price yourself to where you're invisible. That's got to change. It is unacceptable to me that you sit down with a client, you're as knowledgeable as you are, you teach them everything they...
info_outlineSummer - Sweat Equity
Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.
We hit 1965. 1965 to 1985, who was born during that time? I was. Gen Xers, right? All you Gen Xers out there. This is why we're always so pissed off, right? This is why we're always upset at the world.
Like, oh, come on! Like, everyone's disrespecting me, right? Because it's summer. Summer's all about sweat equity. What happens with sweat equity, right? Sweat equity is a nice way of saying you're going to work your tail off and you're going to get nothing for it.
That's why everybody's upset. Because if you follow the stock market, it goes like this, 1965, 66, 67, and all the way into the 80s, and it doesn't move. You're doing all of this work, but you're not seeing the results of your labor, right? And so during that time, think about the mid 60s, the 70s, and the 80s, right? It's a time of revolution. There were fuel shortages.
