>Charge more
Agreed. There is this weird psychological trick where if you charge people more they start to value your service more or at least delude themselves into thinking so exactly because they are spending more money, it's a beautiful thing. If it fails, you can always reduce your price again!
>Never give your service away for free.*
* Except if your business model depends on capturing a large enough audience to feed them ads and generate revenue from that (Facebook, Google, Reddit).
- paulie_a 8y agoGranted b2c is an exception when based on advertising. But I've seen plenty of cases where raising prices resulted in more customers. And quite frankly better customers overall. The ones that get the service for free or an extremely low cost are the ones that bitch the most in my experience. The people paying a decent price tend to be friendly and while might encounter issues, they work with the CSR to solve the problem.
- codetrotter 8y agoYou quote them as saying “charge more”, but I don’t see them say that. Did they edit their comment while/after you responded?
- ryanbertrand 8y agoIt is in the 'Do you have any advice for founders trying to price their product?' section as a hyperlink.
- codetrotter 8y agoAh, so that part of the comment is in reply to the original post. Confusing but I see.
