Как поднять цены на занятия и не остаться без клиентов?
9 из 10 преподавателей озадачены этим вопросом прямо сейчас, потому что учебный год завершен, а в следующем хотелось бы.
Работать за другие деньги.
Из каждого утюга кричат: «Хватит работать задаром! Начните ценить себя! Поднимите наконец цены!»
Но, пардон, а как их поднять?
А вдруг если, мы сейчас цены поднимем, старые клиенты уйдут. А новые не придут. Что тогда?
И преподаватели, собрав всю волю в кулак, дрожащим голосом: «В новом учетном году занятия будут стоить на 200 руб. дороже.»
То есть поднимают цену ровно на сумму, которую инфляция за год сожрала не подавилась.
И по сути дела остаются на том же уровне дохода. Так происходит из года в год.
Если вы узнали себя в этой истории и хотите повысить цены кратно, присоединяетесь к Анти-Учительской и смотрите вебинар с пошаговой инструкцией.
