    Struggle with asking for money? Please read this awesome advice from my friend Mark Kaye:

    Never Say “NO” to Money
    ===================
    I like to think I’m a smart guy, but I’m kind of a slow learner.

    It took me way to long to realize that you never say “NO” to money.

    Somebody’s budget should not keep you from helping them with their problems and helping your business grow.

    If somebody wants to give you their money in return for your service/knowledge/expertise, you take it.

    I’m not suggesting discounts. You need to get paid what you are worth.

    But if someone can’t afford your signature service, create a service that they can afford.

    “What’s your budget? Okay, I have a product in that price range.”

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    I make 60 second video ads (the BEST 60 second video ads) and they cost $1200.

    Out of your range? No problem. I also offer 30 second video ads for only $750.

    Your budget is smaller? For $500 you can have a 20 second ad that will get people’s attention.

    You only have $250? You’re in luck. I will create a 10-15 second video ad for your product that you can use anywhere!

    It works with coaching too.

    I’d be happy to coach you. For $5000 you can enter my 90-day program.

    If that’s not good for you right now there is a 30-day option for $2500.

    Or, for $1500 I will give you a two-hour session.

    Only have $500? I’ll send you some of my articles that will really help you. Or we can jump on the phone for 15 minutes.

    Creating a menu with various options…even if it’s just in your head…allows you instantly modify your offers so you can help as many people as possible and make as much as you can.
