You have no right to expect owners to pay more for your service if you are doing these three things when taking on new business –
- Sending proposals without meeting face to face with key committee members to determine their real ‘needs’ as opposed to their ‘wants’
- Describing the services and tasks you perform, rather than the value and outcomes you will deliver
- Sending proposals to everyone that enquires, regardless of their fit for your practice and your team’s capacity to take on the additional work.
