To round out the pricing series, I talked to my fellow business coach Sherry Garrity from Corporate Fugitive who illuminates some of the specific pricing challenges faced by corporate employees transitioning to entrepreneurship.
The three main challenges she talks about in our interview are:
- Under-dreaming: thinking too small about the vision of what your business could be, and simply trying to match your salary as an employee
- Under-pricing: not valuing all your experience, and using ineffective measures like billing by the hour
- Under-billing: underestimating all the time and effort it takes to effectively deliver your products or services, or not charging the client for all the work you are doing
Listen to the 30 minute interview here.

Pamela & Sherri:
Due to the holiday season and my business slowing down, I’ve had the opportunity to re-assess what I truly want from my business and to spend time working “on” my business vs. working “in” my business.
You’re so right on about creating your business to suit your life and having a vision for what you really want. This conversation has inspired me so much that I plan to write about it on my blog.
Thanks so much for this thought-provoking conversation.
