To create a high-margin offer without adding significant costs, bundle services you already provide (like experienced movers or included materials) into a "VIP" package. This allows you to price-anchor high and present a premium option that costs little to nothing extra to fulfill, increasing perceived value.
For maximum leverage in a referral-based industry like real estate, bypass individual agents and pitch the head of the brokerage. Offer a brokerage-level deal (e.g., VIP service for all their agents' clients) in exchange for being integrated into their official client packets. This secures dozens of referral sources with a single sale.
When customers default to asking about price, it's because they lack other criteria. Sidestep the price question by asking diagnostic questions about their unstated needs: "Do you care about the qualifications of your movers?" This educates them on your value differentiators and reframes the conversation around value, not cost.
Instead of the owner asking for a review, have the on-site team leader (foreman) make the request. The script should frame it as helping the crew directly: "The guys get a little spiff from ownership for five-star reviews." This leverages the customer's personal connection with the crew and empathy to increase compliance.
When selling a commoditized service like moving, break the price comparison by educating prospects on risks they haven't considered: uninsured movers, hidden fees, or uncapped hourly billing. This reframes your higher price as a guarantee of quality and security, making cheaper options seem risky.
Instead of offering realtors a cash discount for referrals, provide a "free VIP upgrade" for their clients. This is more compelling because it makes the realtor look like a hero with exclusive connections, enhancing their own value proposition. The perceived value of the upgrade is often higher than a small cash discount.
