Jonathan should have a warning label on his head. His advice will shake your world.

– David Trejo


Here’s the problem...

The better (and faster) you get, the LESS you make!

You feel like you’re on a hamster wheel.

There must be a better way

Shouldn’t you make MORE as you get better, not less?

Imagine stepping off the hamster wheel and onto an escalator.

Stop trading time for money

Start selling your smarts, not your hours.

I’ve got bad news... you’ve been lied to.

You’ve been led to believe that money comes from hours spent working for clients.

But that’s simply not true.

Money comes from creating value for clients.

Clients don’t want your time.

They want results.

In fact, the faster you can deliver the results they want, the more they’ll pay.

And best of all?

This means that you don’t have to hire anyone to grow your business.


Three ways I can help...

Jonathan Stark

Hi! I’m Jonathan Stark, and I help subject-matter experts increase their income by selling their smarts instead of their hours.

I was a software developer, consultant, and trainer for the better part of fifteen years. I’ve given sold-out talks on three continents, I am the author of five books, and in my consulting days, I worked with Staples, Time, T-Mobile, Cisco, Intel, and many more household name brands.

In my first year as a solo consultant, I doubled my income by ditching hourly billing for value pricing. I have over a decade of real-world experience successfully applying value-based theories to my own consulting work and that of hundreds of business owners I have advised.

The unconscious acceptance of hourly billing as the only option for selling professional services is a collective hallucination that literally keeps me up at night. In fact, I consider it my mission in life to rid the world of hourly billing. Care to join me? I think you’ll be glad you did. 😊
