Molly Scherzer was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the court. She loves many things about playing high school sports, such as her teammates and her memories with them. Volleyball provides a fun and competitive environment that allows her to play the sport she loves while developing her work ethic, physical growth, social interaction, and other life lessons. She also loves the bond her team has. They always have each other's backs and cheer each other on, and their friendship will carry on for the rest of their lives. Molly competes in volleyball and she is involved in Beta, Pep Club, FCA, and Educators Rising. Outside of school and sports, she has been a member of 4-H for 10 years, a camp counselor, the club president, a religion teacher, a volunteer at church picnics, a coach for 5th and 6th-grade volleyball, and a volunteer at volleyball camps for kids. Agriculture means a lot to Molly because she has grown up on a farm her entire life and both sides of her extended family are farmers. This experience taught her responsibility, a strong work ethic, problem-solving skills, and an appreciation for the environment. She is thankful for the opportunity to raise her own sheep herd and show goats and swine. After graduating high school, Molly plans to attend the University of Southern Indiana and earn a degree in elementary education.

Join us on the Educators Rising podcast with Jai Long for a compelling episode dedicated to a crucial aspect of course creation: pricing. This episode, "Crafting the Perfect Price: Strategies for Educational Course Success," offers an in-depth exploration of the art and science behind setting the right price for your educational course. We kick off by introducing the concept of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) and Willingness to Pay (WTP), guiding educators towards understanding the basics of consumer psychology and product value. Jai then navigates us through the concept of Equilibrium, which represents the ideal price point balancing value and demand. The journey continues with a practical approach: working backwards from your financial goals. Jai presents scenarios, such as aiming for a $100,000 revenue, and breaks down different pricing and sales strategies to achieve this target. This segment is particularly engaging as it challenges educators to consider their comfort levels and confidence in setting high price points. Jai also delves into often-overlooked factors that influence course pricing. Contrary to common belief, the length or content volume of a course doesn't necessarily dictate its value. Instead, Jai emphasizes considerations like time constraints, the tangible value of outcomes, market demand, accessibility to instructors or support teams, supply dynamics, guarantees provided, affordability, and the specificity of the course content. This episode is a must-listen for educators at any stage of their course development journey, providing valuable insights and practical tips to help you confidently price your course for success. Tune in to discover how to strike the perfect balance between profitability and accessibility in your educational offerings.   Sign up to the FREE masterclass: Jailong.co  ---- If you would like to leave a review on the Apple podcast app for your chance to win a mentoring session with Jai Long: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/educators-rising-with-jai-long/id1664297641?i=1000593894919 Sponsor: https://jailong.co/kajabi Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jailong.co/ Website: https://jailong.co/ Educators Rising Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/educatorsrisingSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
