Episode 100: Behind the Scenes with The Pricing Lady

Send us a textLet's take a look behind the scenes.In this special 100th podcast episode I’ve asked colleague and friend Pauliina Rasi to come on the show and interview me. It’s time for me to be the one in the hot seat and to answer your & her questions. It was exciting and a little daunting.Looking back on my business journey. It’s been just over 5 years since I started the business. At first it had multiple personalities – pricing, communication and mindfulness. Seriously, I tried to do them all. I quickly realized it was confusing for clients and a lot of work for me. Pricing was clearly where I could make the biggest difference, so I rolled it all together. That’s right the mindfulness and communication elements are still there, they are tools that I use to help you improve your business and pricing. While I emphasize the Pricing elements and it’s why most people come to me, they quickly realize I’m helping them with so much more.Reflecting upon the podcast, I realized I didn’t have a specific goal other than to bring you listeners great content. To help you improve your businesses through a better understanding of Pricing, it’s tactics and strategies and how to use them in your business. It’s been challenging at times for sure, I even thought of stopping once or twice. In the end, I knew it was best to continue. It’s all been part of the journey and it’s led me to where I am today. 100 episodes, 54 guests and thousands of downloads have led me to one conclusion – I’m in for the next 100. Are you?I’ll continue to strive to bring you the great content you desire and seek. While also bringing in new topics, ideas and guests. I mean it when I say if you have an idea or a suggestion for the show, please share it with me. If there’s someone you’d like to see come on the show – share that too. That’s one way I will continue to build an even better experience for you.In This Episode: Pauliina and I discussed my path to becoming The Pricing Lady. I share some of the experiences I’ve had in my business, some things I’ve learned from the show, my favorite episodes (ugh it’s so difficult to choose), as well as some of my ideas for the future.Thanks for celebrating with me and enjoy the show!Podcast Highlights0:00 Intro4:57 Getting to Know Janene10:17 Pricing and Engineering11:30 First Steps as an Entrepreneur17:30 Early Lessons Learned the Hard Way20:20 Impact of Geography and Culture on Pricing Strategy22:25 History of TPL The Podcast29:49 Your Mindset is Everything35:33 A Way of Being and Behaving43:26 Janene's Recos45:54 Going Forward48:33 Janene's Dream Guest49:45 Wrapping It UpWhat’s Next?Let’s TalkLooking for pricing support or interested in a partnership?
