Your Market Value

You don’t get paid for your time. You get paid for the value you bring to the marketplace.

How much value are you creating? And are you getting paid for it?

My wife and I have had some discussions lately about how to charge for our time and services. Like many people, we have a tendency to undervalue what we have to offer.

The good news is we each see the other as having more value than we see for ourselves, and this has helped our pricing strategy immensely.

I charge four to five times as much for my time now as I did only a few years ago. Am I worth four to five times more now? Possibly, but I rather think my own perception of what my time is worth has tripled. That, and the positive feedback that comes from people quickly saying “yes” when you tell them your rates.

It’s not just the value of time, either. I’ve actually seen price tests on new products where a higher price outsold (in units) the lower price of the same product. When it comes to the marketplace, perception is the only reality.

What determines our value? (By the way, I’m speaking only in terms of our market or economic value here.) We are each incredibly valuable-make that priceless-people.

Market value is based on the age-old law of supply and demand. It’s determined by: 1. The demand for the type of work you do 2. How well you do what you do 3. How difficult it would be to replace you 4. The demand for you exclusively

Why do some brain surgeons make more performing one operation than another person earns in a year? Because they score highly in all four of the above criteria.

The salaries and contracts of many of the top professional athletes today may seem crazy, but notice how they match up to this list.

Think about these things and look for ways to enhance your income by positioning yourself well in all four areas.

Dr. Robert Anthony Will Make You Wealthy

Posted by Sarah Davidson | Posted in Success | Posted on 13-02-2009

by A. McDaniel

Dr. Robert Anthony is well regarded in the business world as an author and performance consultant for top level executives. However, his true contribution to this world has been the profound impact he has made on the lives of thousands of his students who look to him to learn how to manifest wealth and abundance in their lives.

While he has been featured on NBC and CBS and is regularly engaged by Fortune 500 companies for executive consultation, Dr. Robert Anthony is a private and non-promotional person. As a result, most of his students found out about him through word of mouth. They learn of the changes in a family or friend’s lives resulting from Anthony’s teaching and they discover a key to their own freedom and happiness.

His initial course was called Know How to Be Rich and it consisted of a 6 hour audio program that first teaches the background of how quantum physics and scientific laws like the law of attraction work. This may sound boring but by understanding this, you will believe in reality manifestation and when you believe it, the rest is easy. His courses teach you step by step methods for defining and then creating your reality and experiences.

Recently, he expanded his initial program to apply to the manifestation of not only money and riches, but anything you desire such as health, relationships, career, or any other possessions or experiences you desire. His current program name is The Secret of Deliberate Creation. The concepts and teaching are the same. And, the goal is the same. Live the life you want.

Both courses and both are excellent. He has a way of explaining how and why the law of attraction works and this understanding is so important before anyone can apply it to their lives. In just a few short hours after listening to his program, your life will be transformed.

Many other wealth teachers do not address the practical obstacles of mind manifestation which for the most part are related to emotional resistance. He teaches you how to overcome those and once they are dealt with, you will see instant changes in your life.

Included with his program is a wealth acceleration tool called Rapid Manifestation. This audio itself is worth the price of the entire program because it makes manifestation really easy. It is a 12 minute audio and so if you can commit to just 12 minutes for focused manifestation work daily, you will see unbelievable and fast results in your reality.

His program is so effective that it comes with a lifetime guarantee. You can return it at anytime. So there is no risk to getting his program and devoting just 6 hours to it. It will change your life. The best proof of Dr. Robert Anthony’s contribution to this world is by reaching out to any of his students. If you do you will hear endless stories of major changes and accomplishments and people finally living the life of their dreams on a daily basis.

Your mind is the secret Success Copilot

Posted by GCF Marketing | Posted in Success | Posted on 02-02-2009

by GCF Marketing

What is mindset you might ask? Is it my success copilot? I answer that mind set in my personal opinion is one of the most vital components to becoming successful whether it be “online, networking, or in brick and mortar” business models. This mindset will help you through your learning curve I have learned in my trial and errors in beginning into business.

See, having the proper mindset, learning to harvest the belief in yourself, your actions, and your hard work as well as anything in life will directly effect and mold how successful you can become as an individual.

The importance of discussing this is due to the way this scenario will link into your family, business, and occupation directly the same in all these aspects of your life. I not only had many doubt me when I began to chase my dreams of succeeding in a work from home business, including myself at times. Then, a time will come to learn to remove yourself from these psychic vampires and learn to condition your own mind to block out this negative energy and redirect it into positive efforts and production.

So, unless you are signing up to get the same money losses and no returns on investments as so many others out there that let the negative influences become a factor in their demise, you must overcome this. The losses that those people have endured will become embedded into your mind and keep you from getting into that mindset I keep talking about that Success Copilot will teach you.

The Eye of the Tiger

Posted by Lynn Pierce | Posted in Success | Posted on 30-01-2009

by Lynn Pierce

Remember the theme song from the Rocky movie, “The Eye of the Tiger”?

When Rocky fought his opponent he had the focus of ‘the eye of the tiger’. When that song was written they couldn’t have had any idea the significance it would take on when a new Tiger took the world stage and changed sports forever.

I don’t care if you are a golf fan or a sports fan or if you think there is too much hype over this one particular athlete-yes golfers are athletes.

Tiger Woods is a force to be reckoned with. I could write a book about not only his accomplishments in the sports world, but also his accomplishments as a human being, but many books have already been written. In fact I wrote about Tiger in my book, “Breakthrough to Success.”

Look at what Tiger does in terms of how you live your life. Could you stand up to the level of excellence that Tiger requires of himself? If you raised your expectations, do you think you would be performing head and shoulders above your competition?

I’ve always been a huge fan of his because not only is he a consummate professional, he has such intense focus that you can see it on his face when you watch him on TV. I have also had the pleasure of standing just a few feet from him on more than one occasion and watching that focus in person.

Over and over again I heard the announcers at the tournament talking about how nobody would believe this if it was a movie. It would just be too much of a fantasy and the whoever wrote a screenplay that played out like this would be laughed out of a movie mogul’s office. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a movie or a sporting event with this many interesting characters and twists and turns.

Tiger is larger than life and his life is richer, more nuanced, and more interesting than any movie script. And this weekend he was Rocky, but he wasn’t fighting an opponent, he was doing what his dad had taught him. He was playing full out because that’s the only way to do it.

There were so many amazing shots from this one tournament. You can probably find them all on Youtube. But it’s not about the shots. It’s about the measure of the man. During the tournament some of his fellow golfers, who should feel really ashamed of themselves right now, wondered out loud through their pettiness and jealousy how hurt Tiger really was.

Tiger on the other hand downplayed his injury to not take the focus off the Open while he played through incredible pain that would have made almost any other player call it quits, especially when he was so far back that it didn’t look like he had any chance at all of winning.

And yet, Tiger not only didn’t quit, he forced a playoff and played another 19 holes on Monday. And then he made the impossible inevitable by winning…again!

Watching him play in the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines for 4 days instead of the usual 3 was a treat and at the same time painful. My heart ached every time I saw him wince when he hit the ball or when his caddy pulled him up by the arm when he couldn’t get up by himself or when the pain of taking another stroke had him almost doubled over in pain.

And I wondered how he could keep going, where did he find the inner strength to focus enough to pull it out day after day?

Ironically during the tournament there was a commercial running with audio of his dad talking about how Tiger would never meet anyone else as mentally tough as him in his entire life.

He certainly proved his dad right that weekend. I’m sorry I won’t be seeing him play the rest of the summer, but I know he’ll be back next year better than ever because striving for excellence is just his natural way of being.

The question is, is it yours?
