I’m looking for my $310 haircut person. I live in Victoria, B.C. and need to find someone who gets what’s right for me. How do I go about finding an expert such as you described?

Thanking you in advance.

I was in Nieman Marcus. Buying makeup. Upon leaving something sparkled out at me saying my name( ok in my mind!). I walked over to jewelry counter saw a ring that absolutely had my personality all over it.
Trying it on I had the opportunity to see the price without asking.almost $600.00. Ok, it may not be allot to some but… Anyway I Wanted that ring!
So what I did was excuse my self to think it over. I went to restaurant and one glass of liquid courage. Went back bought the ‘Constantino ring AND THE $150.00 earrings to go with. I wear the ring All the time and don’t regret it one bit!

Great video!
I’m curious to hear whether or not your experience was so awesome that you will continue to be a repeat client of his. At some point the novelty of the experience will wear off, and the price point may begin to outweigh what you’re getting for what you pay.

I love that he is successful and able to charge what he does- he has certainly put in the time and work to get there!
What are your thoughts on being successful in retaining business past that first, second, and third experience? Repeat business after all, is where the real success lies.

I splurged on some Dita eyeglasses for $600. They’re not tinted nor are they prescription since my vision is ok for the time being. I wanted something different. I wanted them because of the details. Handmade, titanium, gold plated. But I purchased them because of the salesman who was helping me. Very knowledgeable, very patient, suggestive, continuously energetic.

I think the biggest part is that you have to believe in your price, when you do the right people will buy it. I have people tell me all the time ‘I’m not paying that when I can buy it for this much less over there’ fine, why are you wasting my time, just say no thanks and keep walking…….I had one guy upset I was trying to rip him off charging him $500 for a pig, I told him that was what I knew she was worth and if he wanted one cheaper than go get it from down the way–he called back a week later to again tell me how outrageous the price was, I simply told him I was too busy and not going to discuss the matter with him again

the point is, when you believe in the value of your product people can either pay it or not, don’t let them belittle you to come down, you aren’t doing yourself any favors–be steadfast in your pricing, the right people will come along (Just FYI, I sell soap that rages in price from $5-30 a bar……yes, occassional we clearance our inventory, but do you really think I buy into the ‘this is too expensive I can get it for $1 at walmart’–nope)

yes, I realized early on that no matter how great my soap is (and it is amazing–raise the goat’s that I milk by hand, use Texas Grown and produced organic olive oil and therapeutic grade essential oils instead of synthetic scents, make it all completely from scratch and hand pour it into shape molds, using the cold process soap method, one bar of soap can take a month from start to finish….pretty special stuff) setting up shop at a flea market and trying to explain to walmart customers why $10 for a bar of it was actually a steal of a deal for this reason and that was kind of a waste of time. Now don’t get me wrong, as much as I despise walmarts general quality of products (shirts start falling apart usually after one or 2 times washing it) I do like their low prices, but when I go to make a big purchase (like a TV, computer, clothing, etc) I prefer to shop elsewhere because I want it to work and I want it to last. My husband is a handyman mechanic, he has more tools then I want to count, I love him dearly but sometimes I think he has a problem when it comes to buying tools, early on we came to an understanding:

When you need a tool, you have 4 options:

A: ask a friend
B: Rent from a store
C:by a cheap but very low quality throw away tool
D: spend a little more on a higher quality longer life tool

Now, when he graduated from MMI as a motorcycle mechanic his Grandma gifted him all sorts of snap on tools (high quality lifetime warranty, big price tag) but that was 12 years ago and he has come to see that most tools got lost instead of broken, so now if it is something small and easily replaced we buy it cheap (usually from harbor freight) if it is somethnig he is going to use a lot and most likely not lose we guy a bit more expensive (like his huskaverna however you spell it chainsaw to cut down trees around our property)
