Today on Creative Minds Smart Money, we’re tackling a huge topic for every creative entrepreneur—setting the perfect pricing for your services. 💰 You’ve got skills, you’ve got value, and now it’s time to make sure you’re getting paid what you’re truly worth.

We’re breaking down everything you need to know to feel confident in your pricing, including:

  • Knowing your worth and why admin hours absolutely count
  • How to charge for the transformation you’re delivering, not just your time
  • Why checking the market is helpful, but it shouldn’t control your pricing
  • The importance of testing, adjusting, and evolving your prices as you grow
  • Making your pricing visible and why it’s key to attracting the right clients


Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been in the game for a while, pricing is something we all need to revisit. By the end of this episode, you’ll have the clarity and confidence to set prices that reflect your true value and ensure your business thrives. So, let’s dive in and get those numbers working for you!
