Presenting Blowing Up (Tad Hargrave)

Special "Business Revenue Leak Checklist" offer free at http://www.mrse.co/leak.Tad Hargrave is a self-described hippie with a knack for marketing. He helps other hippies get more clients in ways that feel good to all involved, and he calls his decision to do pay-what-you-can the best thing he ever did for his business. Hosts Linda Claire Puig and Ari Iny talk with Tad about what can sound like a radical thing to do: allowing people to decide what they will pay you for your work. Tad shares real-world examples from his own business of what works well with this strategy...and what to avoid.  In this episode, we discuss:Tad’s story of a workshop “gone wrong”—and the surprising offer strategy that emerged, earning him thousands in unexpected revenue without any selling at allWhy you do NOT have to choose between marketing that works and marketing that feels goodHow to tweak and test your offer so that people actually want to pay more for itThe most common misunderstanding and misapplication of pay-what-you-can (so you don’t dig yourself a financial grave).  And much more!“Because they feel respected and not pushed, this natural generosity comes out and people just want to give and want to contribute.”   —Tad HargraveTad Hargrave is a hippie who developed a knack for marketing (and then learned to be a hippie again). He is a practitioner and proponent of “ethical marketing for uncertaintimes” and helps hippies get more clients in ways that feel good to all involved.Resources or websites mentioned in this episode:Mirasee6-Figure NewslettersTad’s websiteTad’s free gift Credits:Guest: Tad HargraveHosts: Linda Claire Puig & Ari InyProducer: Linda Claire PuigManaging Producer: Cynthia Lamb Executive producer: Danny InyAudio Post Supervisor: Evan Miles, Christopher MartinAudio Post Production: Post Office SoundMusic soundscape: Chad Michael SnavelyMaking our hosts sound great: Home Brew AudioIf you don't want to miss future episodes of Blowing Up, please subscribe to Apple podcasts or Spotify or wherever you're listening right now.
