The Rolex Effect: Why Higher Prices Build Perceived Value Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here, your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. We're talking about increasing your fees. Now wouldn't that be nice? Just take your prices and charge more? And you'll just make more money. Isn't that great? Well, you know what, it's actually necessary. We have been talking about not just being another penguin, about standing above, about being an expert, about differentiating yourself. Wel,l guess what? People judge your quality based on your fees. Think about it, I asked you the question, what's a better watch? A Timex or a Rolex? And some of you are like, “Timex, do they even make them anymore?” Like pretending you don't know. And then when I said, How about a Rolex? You all knew what that cost, “oh, $5000 well it depends on which one you get. How much are we blinging this one out Carl?” Now you can spend 15 or above. You all knew what the Rolex cost. But none of you could figure out what the Timex would cost. Right, because we are sold on brands that are higher in price. Apple, Mercedes Benz, Jaguar, Tiffany's, you know, Rolex, and other high-end brands. What makes them high end? How do you know they're as good as they claim? The reality is you don't! The way that you judge quality is based on their price.  Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.

It's been well over a year since this interview was recorded and it's finally seeing the light of day. Life happens, projects come up, and this wonderful conversation and a handful of others were recorded in 2023/2024 and never released. This backlog of recordings is Season 8 of the podcast, The Light Of Day series.In the 80th episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown is in Seattle, WA over the Thanksgiving holiday. It's November of 2023, and Sarah has set up her microphones in David Chatt's guest apartment, which she's fortunate to stay in for the week. It's a charming and cozy apartment and reflects David's eye for design and impeccable taste.David and Sarah's friendship has evolved from benefactor/artist to friends to chosen family, and the two begin by sharing how they were brought into each other's lives. David speaks to how his creative practice began, how his parents' talents inspired him, navigating between following his passions and monetizing his abilities, the preciousness of studio time, his relationship with his things, the importance of a good editor, and a fascination for rocks.OUR GUESTI have spent my entire adult life sewing tiny glass beads, one to the next. I have spent as much as a year to create one piece. I am a pioneer, an inventor, and one of a few who have gained recognition for beadwork as a fine art/craft medium. My work has taken me all over the United States and abroad as a lecturer, exhibitor, and teacher, and is included in public and private collections, including a recent acquisition by The Smithsonian's Renwick Museum. My achievements have been chronicled in books and periodicals, and in 2006 my career was recognized with a retrospective at the Bellevue Arts Museum. I have received a number of awards, including the grand prize at the 2020 Ireland Glass Biennale. In 2006 I accepted a three-year residency at Penland School of Crafts where I built a hot glass studio and studied ladle-cast glass. At the end of this residency, I returned to working with beads, but struggling with tools that were unfamiliar and allowing myself to consider other ways of working was invaluable. The time I spent living in this community and taking a break from my usual way of working, offered me an opportunity to think differently. The process of becoming adept at something, which challenged me, also made me a better teacher. I am planning to move permanently to the Penland area this spring.davidchatt.comsiennapatti.comRATE AND REVIEW US ON APPLE PODCASTS OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN!SUPPORT PERCEIVED VALUE!www.patreon.com/perceivedvaluewww.perceivedvaluepodcast.com/how-to-support-donate/Instagram + Facebook: @perceivedvalueFind your Host:Instagram: @sarahrachelbrownThe music you hear on Perceived Value is by the Seattle group Song Sparrow Research.All You Need to Know off of their album Sympathetic Buzz.

Introduction: In this episode, Sarah Walton, a dynamic business coach and sales expert, unpacks the powerful connection between money mindset and personal growth. Raised in a low-income household, Sarah knows the unspoken rules and financial beliefs that shape our lives. She brings her signature no-nonsense coaching strategies to reveal how women in business can break free from scarcity, embrace abundance, and cultivate confidence in sales and life. This conversation dives into how mindset shifts around time, money, and self-worth can transform your business and personal development journey.     Main Takeaways: Unspoken Rules Shape Financial Beliefs: Identifying inherited beliefs can help dismantle the scarcity mentality. Money is Infinite; Time is Finite: Recognizing this truth can revolutionize decision-making and time management. Confidence Drives Perceived Value: Abundance flows when you confidently own your worth and offerings.     Main Topics with Timestamps: Unspoken Rules and Scarcity Mentality (05:15) Sarah explains how unspoken childhood rules—like "money is stressful" or "more is better"—can unconsciously control decisions. She emphasizes that these beliefs aren't truths but inherited mindsets. Quote: "Unspoken rules run deep, but identifying them allows us to rewrite our stories." Impact: Realizing how these unexamined beliefs operate can unlock a sense of freedom and control over your financial choices. Money vs. Time: Infinite and Finite (23:42) The misconception that time is abundant and money is limited is flipped. Sarah highlights that money flows endlessly in the economy, but time is a resource you can't replenish. Quote: "Billions of dollars circulate daily—it's about participating in the flow, not fighting it." Impact: This mindset shift encourages smarter investments in your time and energy, empowering you to focus on high-value activities. Perceived Value and Sales Confidence (41:08) Owning the value of your work is key to thriving in sales. Sarah reframes selling as a transfer of enthusiasm rather than a pushy transaction. Quote: "When you trust your value, you can confidently ask for the raise or increase your prices without guilt." Impact: Seeing sales as an opportunity to share value transforms fear into empowerment, fostering authenticity in every transaction.     Notable Quotes: "We come into this world naturally abundant; scarcity is something we learn, but abundance is always available." "Confidence in your value isn't about arrogance; it's about showing up with integrity and love." "The unexamined psyche will rule your life—question your beliefs to unlock your true potential."

In the 79th episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown takes listeners to the Penland School of Craft, where she's participating in their Winter Residency. During the two-week residency, Sarah never missed an opportunity to enjoy a meal in the dining hall. The Pines, the Penland dining hall, has large, round tables perfect for gathering and enabling conversations over meals. Each meal is an opportunity to sit next to a stranger and potentially meet a new friend - or podcast guest.After enjoying a few meals and conversations, Sarah asked Zahra Almajidi if she would be willing to come on the podcast. The two metalsmiths sat down to discuss Zahra's upbringing and why her family immigrated to the United States, the benefits of living with your parents while going to college, and if it's possible to appropriate a culture that is your own while living in the diaspora.Speaking of Penland….Western North Carolina was devastated by Hurricane Helene. This area is home to the Penland School of Craft and many artists and craftspersons.

We believe that we can unite to rebuild a community that embodies home, health, equity, and opportunity for all. OUR GUESTZahra Almajidi is a visual artist and metalsmith raised and based in Detroit, MI.

In today's episode, I share my insights on simplifying negotiation through a clear formula. Understanding your timing and risk tolerance is essential, not just in monetary terms but also considering time, emotion, and other values. I discuss the concept of perceived value, which is about confidently articulating the quantitative value of what you're asking for. It's crucial to know your bottom line to avoid losing energy and confidence during negotiations. I also cover the importance of maintaining alignment even after a yes, using strategies like the three no rule to manage changing time, value, and emotion effectively.

So in this week's podcast, we are going to talk about 6 reasons why prospective patients are not booking and what to do about it?    By the end of this episode, you'll have a solid understanding of the reasons why you haven't got a decent conversion rate from consultations to surgeries and how to fix that.   Thank you for checking it out !

In this podcast episode, I delve into the psychology of buying and selling, unraveling the mysteries behind pricing strategies and consumer behavior. To help you understand, I draw from parallels between the automotive industry and product pricing, emphasizing the critical role branding and perceived value play in driving consumer decisions. The importance of aligning pricing with the buyer's journey and psychological triggers, which will hopefully shift your perspective and force you to tailor their marketing strategies accordingly.Another key concept I cover is the stages of buyer awareness, from the unaware masses to the committed customers, advocating for a nuanced approach in messaging and content creation. By understanding where potential customers fall within this spectrum, businesses can craft targeted campaigns and offers that resonate with their specific needs and preferences.

Ada del Pilar obtained her BFA with a concentration in Painting from the School of Fine Arts and Design of Puerto Rico in 2018. Her work has been presented individually and collectively in spaces such as the Arsenal de la Puntilla Museum, El Kilómetro Gallery, Embajada Gallery, the Museum of Contemporary Art of Puerto Rico and the Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural & Educational Center in New York, among others.

In the 71st episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown is in Asheville, NC. In January of 2023, Sarah was making the drive from Florida to Pennsylvania and planned her trip around the opportunity to interview craft historian Andrew Glasgow. The two were introduced the previous summer while at the Penland School of Craft, and Sarah, having known of Andrew's vast career within the craft community, was thrilled when he agreed to an interview.The two craft appreciators sat down in Andrew's mid-century modern home to discuss how the Alabama native went from thinking he'd be a dentist to being an executive director of a non-profit in New York City. A year into his position as the executive director of the American Craft Council, Andrew was diagnosed with Lymphoma, and he shares with Sarah how his mindset, hope, and being his own advocate helped him through the estimated 806+ drug infusions and being declared cancer-free in 2013.Are you going to Munich Jewellery Week?Follow @3xUSA_MJW2024 on Instagram for all details regarding the exhibition your host is participating in!

Tony addresses why so many New Year's resolutions don't last and explores the concept of value-based goals and the importance of aligning them with personal values for the sake of authenticity and lasting change. He discusses the shortcomings of the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound) goal-setting method. He plays clips from an interview with his friend Neal Hooper about their discoveries on incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into the goal-setting process. Neal introduces the elements necessary for genuine progress and fulfillment - the 'why' and 'how' of making SMARTER goals. Drawing from the principles of ACT and illustrating through the story of the client “Jason's” transformational journey, he emphasizes the significance of acceptance, committed action, and psychological flexibility. The episode also points out the need to view setbacks as opportunities for growth, not pitfalls, and illustrates the importance of flexibility in goal setting. 00:00 Introduction: The Struggle with Traditional Goal-Setting 01:27 Meet the Host: Tony Overbay and His Podcasts 03:11 The Problem with New Year's Resolutions 06:48 The SMART Goals Method: An Overview 08:21 Jason's Story: A Case Study in Goal Setting 09:27 The Limitations of SMART Goals: Jason's Experience 14:26 The Shift to Values-Driven Goals 15:00 Jason's Transformation: Embracing a Holistic Approach 22:27 Conclusion: The Power of Mindfulness and Acceptance in Goal Setting 23:01 Challenges and Old Habits 23:24 Acceptance and Compassion in Change 24:10 The Power of Small Victories 24:42 Aligning Goals with Personal Values 25:13 The Pitfalls of Yo-Yo Dieting 25:42 The Pushup Challenge: A Personal Journey 26:25 Embracing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy 27:27 The Power of Daily Commitment 29:56 The Importance of Why and How in Goal Setting 30:22 The Role of Shame in Goal Setting 30:56 The Problem with Traditional Goal Setting 31:19 The Importance of Perceived Value and Capability in Goals 34:36 The Power of Smarter Goals 41:58 The Misconception of Committed Action 43:25 The Role of Setbacks in Growth 44:14 Embracing Discomfort and Doubt 44:42 Conclusion: The Power of ACT Principles Find all the latest links to podcasts, courses, Tony's newsletter, and more at https://linktr.ee/virtualcouch Please follow Tony's new Waking Up to Narcissism Instagram account here https://www.instagram.com/wutnpod/ Subscribe to Tony's latest podcast, "Waking Up to Narcissism Q&A - Premium Podcast," on the Apple Podcast App. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/waking-up-to-narcissism-q-a/id1667287384 Go to http://tonyoverbay.com/workshop to sign up for Tony's "Magnetize Your Marriage" virtual workshop.
