Your First Advisory Offering
Let’s say you’re an expert at what you do AND you want to start selling advisory services BUT you have a hard time believing that clients would ever pay for anything but implementation.
Here’s a very low-risk, low-effort experiment you can run to test your assumptions:
- Create a Stripe account
- Create a Calendly account
- Connect your Calendly account to your Stripe account
- Create a 45-minute paid event in Calendly called “Strategy Consult”
- Set the price for your Strategy Consult at double your current hourly rate (or double your effective hourly rate if you don’t bill hourly)
- Figure out who would pay you that much money to pick your brain for about an hour
- Make those people aware of your offer in a non-spammy way
- Tweak your language and/or target until people start buying
Have fun!
Yours,
