261: Pricing for Predictable Profit with Dr. Sabrina Starling

How is the profitability in your business? The biggest factor in your profitability is making sure you are pricing appropriately, and you have to know your numbers to predict your profit! In today’s show, we will discuss how to set your prices, when to increase your prices, and what to do if your low margins don’t provide appropriate owner’s pay. There is a LOT to consider within this topic, but it’s relevant to every small business owner and can make all the difference in your profitability and your life! Join us to learn more!

 

Profit by Design is a Tap the Potential Production.
