Take the quiz to uncover your Pricing Paradigm™ and reveal how your beliefs about money influence what you charge – and what you think clients are willing to pay – so you can start charging more with confidence.
Ever wonder why you price your services the way you do – or why raising your rates feels so hard? Your Pricing Paradigm™ is the hidden set of beliefs shaping every money decision you make in your business. It’s the lens you see your prices, your value, and your clients through – and it determines whether you’re undercharging and overworking… or confidently pricing for the results you create.
Below, you’ll find the three most common pricing paradigms web designers operate from. Take the quiz and find out one is driving your results right now.
Values time more than money, believes there is always more on the way. Makes financial decisions based on creating more time, money, freedom and capacity in the future vs. having less money now. Believes parting with money strategically today creates more in the future.
Believes they can always make more money, and that gaining more skills, credentials, and experience makes their time more valuable. Scrappy, willing to spend time and money to raise the value of their time and willing to spend a lot of time working to create more money.
Values money more than time. Sees money as finite – believes there’s only so much to go around and that it can run out, so it must be protected at all costs—resulting in overworking or DIY-ing to avoid spending. Scrappy and resourceful, but progress is slow because time is limited and finite.
