When to Say When
| |
| Do you know when to say "When"? Not to stereotype our gender, but it does seem that women seem to have a problem with being able to say "no" to the requests for our time, services and money.

If this goes on without keeping it in check, soon you find that what you typically get paid for from your clients, you are now doing free for those close to you, which in turn, uses up too much of your time. |

Levelling the intagible playing field of professional services procurement (Beyond Referrals Profile)
| |
| “I stated that the worst thing a purchasing person can do when using an RFP to buy professional services is to exclude a project budget.

From the PowerPoint “A Decent Proposal”, Cal Harrison, Beyond Referrals (August 2008)

How to Price Your Products and Programs to Increase Your Income
| |
| Clients often ask me how they should be pricing their knowledge or expertise-based products, programs and services. Most are undercharging and losing a lot of income as a result.
