About this Event
Your Offer Isn't Being Ignored Because It's Bad. It's Being Ignored Because It's Confusing.
Most founders build a great service and then bury it under vague pricing, unclear packaging, and a model that doesn't match how their customers actually buy. The result is a business that has to re-sell itself every single month. In this session, MIC Managing Director Pauline Shiu breaks down pricing strategy, offer design, and consumer buying behavior — so you can build an offer people say yes to and a revenue model that doesn't reset to zero every 30 days.
This is the next session of the MIC Marketing Lab, a monthly hands-on series pairing a core concept with real, applied work.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF
- You're not sure whether your pricing reflects what you're actually worth
- You're stuck in one-off projects and want revenue that repeats
- You've been told your offer is "interesting" but can't get people to buy it
- You're weighing a subscription, retainer, or package model and don't know which fits your business
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH
- A test for whether your offer is easy to understand — and how to fix it if it isn't
- A read on whether you're solving an urgent problem or a nice-to-have one
- How to align your price with the value you deliver, instead of what competitors charge
- A clear way to choose between subscriptions, retainers, packages, and projects
- Practical paths to building recurring revenue into what you already sell
- Insight into how consumers actually make buying decisions, and what that means for your packaging
