Have your invested in a website and new promotional materials but not enough clients coming to the clinic? Well, a solution is at hand! Have you thought about a five, seven or ten minute brochure with Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;FEATURES&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Three webinar packages available to veterinary practices&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Four-minute webinar- (general information about your vet practice/surgery) and up to three pet-friendly tips for pet owners&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Seven-minute webinar- Here you have the option to choose a specialist topic for the webinar or practice information and tips. Examples of webinars: Specialist webinarand Non-specialist webinar.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;10-minute webinars You can choose any of the above packages and have more time to discuss or you can arrange for an interview with one or two members of staff of your practice to discuss a topic of interest. You tell us when you’d like to have the interview and the topic and we’ll arrange for the interview to be conducted without you leaving the comfort of your practice. Such interviews are very useful in providing clients with information in bite-size pieces. For all webinar packages You can choose the background sounds (including animal sounds) for your webinar –or tell us what you prefer and leave it to us to find appropriate interim audio/jingle (only royalty free stock will be used)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;b&gt;BENEFITS&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Frees up time of your receptionist, practice nurses and Practice Managers to answer client questions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Reduce cost of providing useful, customised and engaging information on your website for current and future clients.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Increase traffic to your website by pet owners in your&amp;nbsp;local community&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;New residents to your local community will view your practice as one that is keeping abreast of changes and treatments in veterinary medicine.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;with increasing access to the internet across generations/by all members of the family (from primary age to silver surfers), you ensure that your practice is seen/viewed as one that is focused on providing the best service available for customers and is willing to go beyond the usual to provide instant and ready access to information to clients and calm some of their fears and reassure them about some of the more commonly occurring but worrisome conditions that may affect their pets.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You do not have to invest large amounts of money to have filming of your surgery/practice in order to educate/inform clients –webinars cost at least 50% less that film for every minute of viewing/footage.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;b&gt;ADVANTAGES&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Easy and simple way of sharing information and educating current and potential clients about your vet practice.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Existing and new clients have instant access to information about your practice in a personalised way.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You do not have to invest large amounts of money to have filming of your surgery/practice in order to educate/inform clients –webinars cost at least 50% less that film for every minute of viewing/footage.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For practice managers and veterinarians/veterinary surgeons who prefer to be behind the camera, instead of in front of it, webinars allow you to share information and just a photo of you instead of you having to speak to the camera and dealing with retakes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Because it’s simple to put together you can use the bite size webinar for both insurgery awareness as clients wait for you to attend to their pets.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;You do not have to rely only on television channels to keep clients occupied when in your waiting room&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;To discuss how you can use webinars on your website to raise the profile of your vet practice, give your practice the competitive edge in the local community and to become an invaluable resource for current and potential clients, just email or telephone us. We’d be happy to schedule an exploratory telephone meeting with a member of our team:&lt;br /&gt;

On this occasion, however, the post considers online real estate that&amp;nbsp;consists of&amp;nbsp;business&amp;nbsp;websites as&amp;nbsp;well as personal photographs and posts&amp;nbsp;stored online.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Research recently by cloud computing company Rackspace found that online users are leaving internet passwords in&amp;nbsp;their wills.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; nodeindex=&quot;3&quot; style=&quot;background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 7.5pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;In a poll of 2,000 adults, 25% were found to have more than £200 worth of films, video and music stored online. This suggests that in Britain a £2.3 billion digital inheritance has been amassed. Because businesses, including many sole trader and micro-businesses (less than 10 employees) are increasingly having a presence online, owners and directors of small businesses need to realise the potential of their online real estate. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 7.5pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The pollsters concluded that “Without the passwords being included in wills, billions of pounds&#39; worth of films, music and pictures stored in &quot;cloud&quot; services such as Hotmail, Facebook, iCloud and Flickr would be lost.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; nodeindex=&quot;6&quot; style=&quot;background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 7.5pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;More details about the findings of the Rackspace poll and what is being left in wills to pass on digital inheritance through their estates can be found online at:&lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://tinyurl.com/3gqsvfw&quot;&gt;http://tinyurl.com/3gqsvfw&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;OR&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp;you can cut and paste the weblink below in your browser:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/digital-inheritance-added-to-wills-3&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;http://news.uk.msn.com/uk/digital-inheritance-added-to-wills-3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;background: white; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Experts agree and my own experience confirms that referrals can be a powerful way of getting new clients and generating repeat business. However, referrals alone cannot be the only item in the marketing basket, especially for small businesses. The question is what else and at what cost?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Some business owners, including some of my own clients, use a mix of offline and online strategies to generate a steady stream of new and repeat customers. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And, back to a keyword in the&amp;nbsp;caption of&amp;nbsp;this blog -networking. Five years ago, mention networking and immediately I&amp;nbsp;would have thought of weekly business breakfasts, monthly lunch time women&#39;s groups and&amp;nbsp;evening chamber of commerce networking events. In 2011, however, when I think of networking, I consider both online and offline events. Indeed, I have connected with and exchanged with people online, especially on&amp;nbsp;Linkedin, only to meet them subsequently at offline events. Indeed, I attended an offline networking event just over a week ago based on an online recommendation and as a result met a couple of business owners with whom I scheduled meetings in the past week. Both meetings were mutually helpful and we will continue to have discussions on specific areas in which collaboration is possible. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Does networking provide value for money? A resounding YES -provided you&amp;nbsp;network with&amp;nbsp;people with a need for and the&amp;nbsp;willingness and capability to pay for your services. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You may not be invoicing the&amp;nbsp;week after the&amp;nbsp;networking event, however, networking&amp;nbsp;where potential users of your services are present will&amp;nbsp;result in more invoices&amp;nbsp;very soon after.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Have a successful and profitable week!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Sometimes even the latter require further pruning to ensure you are not spending several hours every month deleting spam or email messages you have neither read nor plan to read.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraph&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Alternatively, choose specific days of the week (I know a few business owners who take this approach) to reply to email –incredible, but true. Some managers and indeed business owners who take drastic action and dedicate only once or twice per week argue that if the message requires urgent action, the person will pick up the telephone and make contact directly, instead of sending an email. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Technology can be invaluable in helping small businesses ‘punch above their weight’ which allows business to grow not only in terms of number of customers/clients in their local area but nationally and, even internationally. Technology can be the catalyst that makes a small business become a large business. As Jonathan Jay, Chairman of the National Alliance of Business Owners (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nabo.biz/&quot;&gt;NABO&lt;/a&gt;) observes “The only difference between a small company and a big one is the number of customers it has.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;The use of technology in business has a downside. It can dominate daily life and reduce efficiency of business owners as they become even less effective at managing time –both their own and any staff/employees they may have hired. Think of those scores if not hundreds of email messages sent and read every week and the numerous enewsletters and online line groups to which many of us subscribe –then unsubscribe. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As one of my Business Associates observed recently “we are have come to expect immediate responses to our email messages, and think it has not been received if there’s no response within 24 hours”. Indeed, I am guilty of apologising on more than one occasion for the ‘delayed reply’ when I take longer than 48 hours to reply to an email. Not an effective way of staying on top of countless email! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;In general, however, technology does provide businesses with more benefits than hindrances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Three ways in which my business has harnessed technology very effectively in both marketing and delivery of services to clients/customers are i) providing online webinars for training, ii) using Skype and GoToMeeting for coaching and mentoring sessions with business owners and iii) using automated systems to post messages on social media such as Twitter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Webinars&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;In using webinars (online seminars), which provide both visual and audio sharing of information, it makes it more conducive/compatible for various learning styles to learn in an interactive/informal way. In this context, I am not referring to unsupervised and limited human interaction found in ecourses. No, what I am referring to are those online sessions (or telephone for those who prefer audio only) in which one or more persons/experts share invaluable/useful information and insights on a topic of interest to those online. Advantages of online seminars include: i) global reach to anyone with an internet connection and suitable bandwidth, ii) being able to listen, view and learn about topics relevant to your business or the work of your staff without leaving the comfort of your office, iii) having flexibility in deciding when you listen to a webinar, as if you are unable to listen live, there is often the option of listening to the recording, sometimes for a limited time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Using Skype or GoToMeeting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Using &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.skype.com/&quot;&gt;Skype&lt;/a&gt; (www.skype.com) or webconferencing services such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.blogger.com/ww.gotomeeting.com&quot;&gt;GoToMeeting&lt;/a&gt; (www.gotomeeting.com) for business coaching and/or mentoring sessions with clients. Here again, clients can have their coaching and/or mentoring sessions from the comfort of their own offices or homes at a time and on a day mutually convenient to business owners and their coaches or mentors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;Automating your tweets&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &#39;Arial&#39;,&#39;sans-serif&#39;; font-size: 10pt;&quot;&gt;You can use &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tweetdeck.com/&quot;&gt;Tweet Deck&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.tweetdeck.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.tweetdeck.com/&lt;/a&gt;) to schedule your tweets over several days or a couple of weeks. This frees up time for staff (or you the business owner) in invest in more strategic developmental work for your business, rather than routine and/or repetitive tasks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I was reminded of these hooks today for two reasons. First, I spent a couple of hours this morning delivering a pricing strategy workshop for small businesses. The second trigger was the email about his latest blog post that was circulated by Ryan Lee (&lt;a href=&quot;http://ryanlee.com/mini-hook-time/&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: windowtext;&quot;&gt;http://ryanlee.com/mini-hook-time/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In his mini-hook post, Ryan showed how to become effectiveness and profitability with the ‘Save Time’ hook. He recalled how he doubled his income more than 17 years earlier through saving his customers time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Every other trainer in the world was doing 1-hour sessions – but I knew people were busy. So I offered more intense 30 minute sessions and people LOVED them. And because I still charged almost the same amount of the 30 minute sessions as I did for the 60 minute sessions, my income more than doubled almost overnight.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
First, however, you need to decide on&amp;nbsp;the standard price. ice for your product or service. Then, you consider whether or not you can sell the product in a smaller quantity or offer a shorter version of your service, i.e., a taster version of either your product or service. In doing this, you allow existing or potential customers to sample your product or service at a lower price, but you should not dilute the quality of what you are providing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, if the single product or service offering is the taster, then you should consider how you can increase the amount offered or frequency for customers who prefer or would be willing to purchase more of your product or service. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;When using a menu of prices for your business, you will get best results from choices made by customers if the price difference between most expensive and middle option is smaller than price difference between middle and least expensive.In the&amp;nbsp;above example, the four star package&amp;nbsp;costs more than the mid-point price between the lowest and highest packages. This means that the business stands to earn at least £50 more than if the second option was viewed as the mid-point between the highest and lowest-priced offerings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you agree with the &#39;3-star&#39; approach to setting prices in your business? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;Have your say below!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Every organisation needs to use best practice to set minimum standards for delivering on excellence. Beyond developing or adopting best practice, businesses need to remind employees that &lt;strong&gt;Everyone&#39;s a Customer&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. Establish a culture for customer care and service. In your business, let your business operations be driven by a desire to solve customers&#39; problems and deliver excellent&amp;nbsp;customer service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;2. Consider the views of customers, place yourself in their shoes and think how the quality of service you provide make&amp;nbsp;customers&amp;nbsp;feel&amp;nbsp;about your service. Is&amp;nbsp;it great? Are they&amp;nbsp;warmed by the experience?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
3. If using recorded voices to answer calls at your business, do not subject customers and other callers to irritating phrases. These include: &#39;no problem&#39;, &#39;your call is important to us&#39;. Omit them from your vocabulary when speaking with customers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
4. Consider customers&#39; feedback in a positive light, not as minor irritants at best or, at worst, necessary evils of doing business. Be a clever organisation, use customers&#39; complaints and enquiries as opportunities to improve quality of service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5. When you communicate with customers, pay great attend not just to what you say but how you say it. Remember how you say what you say affects the customer/ client relationship with your organisation. This can be either positive or negative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
6. Recognise and remember -&lt;strong&gt;People remain the centre of customer service&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
7. Review practices used by your organisation to ensure customers are provided with quality&amp;nbsp;service. Test them frequently for the six Cs of excellence in customer service -Commitment, Credibility, Capability, Continuity, Consistency and Creativity.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Pricing is one of the essential pillars of any business, yet it is an area often ignored! For businesses offering more than one product or service, an ideal way of setting pricing is developing the prices based on a menu of services/products.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;color: black; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;For many small businesses, however, setting the price is a huge challenge and sometimes may be caught in a price war as customers use the threat of moving to the competition to drive prices down. Here are a few tips to get you started on providing greater value AND run a profitable business.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc0000; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Pricing tips&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 18pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -18pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%; mso-fareast-font-family: Arial;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;mso-list: Ignore;&quot;&gt;1.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang=&quot;EN-US&quot; style=&quot;line-height: 115%;&quot;&gt;Decide on a pricing strategy for each product or service offered by your business, For business owners offering products for sale, your pricing strategy can use as a starting point the price of inputs or wholesale for goods that are resold.
