1 Know your market

Before you set your rates, you need to do some research on your market and your niche. What are the average rates for your services and industry? How do you compare to your competitors in terms of quality, reputation, and results? What are the pain points and goals of your ideal clients? By knowing your market, you can position yourself as a solution to their problems and a partner in their success.

2 Highlight your value proposition

Your value proposition is the unique benefit that you offer to your clients. It's not just what you do, but how you do it and why it matters. Your value proposition should answer these questions: What problem do you solve for your clients? How do you solve it better than others? What results do you deliver or promise? How do you measure and demonstrate your impact? Your value proposition should be clear, concise, and compelling, and it should be the core of your marketing and communication strategy.

3 Be confident and assertive

One of the biggest challenges in telling your clients what you're worth is overcoming your own doubts and fears. You may feel insecure, anxious, or guilty about asking for more money, or you may worry about losing clients or opportunities. However, these emotions can sabotage your negotiation and undermine your credibility. To avoid this, you need to be confident and assertive in your communication. You need to believe in your value and express it confidently, without being arrogant or aggressive. You need to be prepared to explain and justify your fees, without apologizing or discounting them. You need to be firm and respectful, without being pushy or desperate.

4 Provide options and flexibility

Another way to tell your clients what you're worth is to provide them with options and flexibility in your pricing and payment terms. You can offer different packages, tiers, or bundles of services, with different features, benefits, and prices. You can also offer discounts, incentives, or bonuses for referrals, testimonials, or long-term contracts. You can also be flexible in how you accept payment, whether it's upfront, in installments, or based on milestones or results. By providing options and flexibility, you can appeal to different budgets, preferences, and needs of your clients, and increase your chances of closing the deal.

5 Build trust and rapport

Finally, telling your clients what you're worth is not just about numbers and logic, but also about emotions and relationships. You need to build trust and rapport with your clients, so that they see you as a trusted advisor, not just a vendor. You need to communicate regularly and effectively, listen to their feedback and concerns, and deliver on your promises and expectations. You need to show them that you care about their success and satisfaction, and that you are reliable, professional, and ethical. By building trust and rapport, you can create loyal and happy clients, who will value your work and pay you accordingly.

Helping brands tell their story

Educating younger account people can be challenging. It takes time to build trust and a strong client relationship, moving beyond being seen as a vendor to becoming a trusted partner. Clients need to understand that you, as their account person, are invested in their success and want the best for them. I feel fortunate that some clients have come to me after presenting multiple concepts, seeking my preference, and simply saying, 'Let's go with that.' While I wish that were the case all the time, getting to know your clients professionally and personally is a process that requires time and effort. In my experience, the most valuable advice I can offer is to actively listen and engage with your clients.
