MenuHow much to charge for calls on Clarity?
I absolutely love this platform. I have had 50 calls with social entrepreneurs and nonprofit founders over the years, and have had nothing but rave reviews. I would love to have 1 or 2 calls every week (or day!); it is not about the money, but the chance to quickly make a great impact on people who are trying to positively impact the world.
(I am honestly only charging so that they take the call seriously; I often have free follow-up calls after the initial calls just to continue helping them.)
I charge the lowest rate ($1/minute) because I want to ensure that I am accessible to those who most need it; but I wonder if doing so might create a perception of low value, and potentially reduce call volume.

It's great that you're trying to help as many people as possible, well done.

Good luck

Has anyone increased SaaS subscription pricing by 100% and lived to tell the tale?
Many well-known SaaS companies have doubled their prices. I've personally worked with a few that have gone through it. In most cases, your conversion rates stay the same and you see a huge jump in revenue. This is because people tend to under-price themselves. Also, your product improves over time so it provides more value and can support a higher price. But don't raise prices for old customers. Grandfather them in so their plans stay the same price. In the long run, it won't make a difference to your growth since most of them will churn out anyway. If you raise prices on current customers, you'll get a huge backlash. It gets nasty. I'm pretty sure that Zendesk tried it and had to reverse the price increase. I highly recommend raising your price by 100% for a month on new customers. Keep a close eye on your revenue and your conversion rates. If things don't go well, you can easily reverse it and discount everyone that paid for the more expensive plan. Either way, you'll know what your market will actually support.Lars LofgrenLL

Cut prices to compete with undercutting competition or not?
If your product is truly better undercutting the undercutter is a good temporary marketing strategy. Just make sure your business can afford to do so. Their business model might allow them to simply charge less because of efficiency factors that you might have. Or your prices might simply be a bit higher for what your market is willing to pay or considers justified.Humberto Valle Texas Real Estate Investor, Wholesaler, & Airbnb SuperhostHV

How can I convince customers that we offer a fair price if we're providing a new service that does not yet exist?
What you are asking for has one simple answer: Marketing. I assume however that you would want a more specific how to guide for such marketing efforts. I won't venture in giving you a ton of possible irrelevant examples but I would like start our conversation by saying that if there is no market demand and you do have a clever useful product you need to market the emotional need and consider why it hasn't been served. When you find that this is what you leverage.Humberto Valle Texas Real Estate Investor, Wholesaler, & Airbnb SuperhostHV
