The first of a new series of discussions on the Today's Conveyancer Podcast, host David Opie is joined by expert legal trainer Ian Quayle of IQ Legal Training, to explore a range of topics around conveyancing. "Transaction Tips" will draw on Ian's extensive experience in and around the property sector discussing important topics conveyancers need to be thinking about. In this first discussion on scoping the retainer, Ian shares his expertise of what to include, and more importantly, what not to include in client retainers. The retainers establishes our relationship with the client and starts to create and manage expectations.He also explores best practice around ensuring retainers remain under review; and the firm have evidence on file the client has read and understood it. In the ever-changing world of conveyancing; and with issues like Building Safety Act and the upcoming changes to TA6 Protocol Forms, it's more important than ever to ensure retainers remain as relevant and up to date as possible. Ian warns firms against what he describes as "retainer creep"; an issue where a firm ends up doing something as part of the transaction they expressly exclude from the retainer; using the example of a boundary query. In such cases firms must expand the retainer or end up at risk of liability. Ian will be back throughout the rest of the year with more Transaction Tips on the Today's Conveyancer Podcast.

In episode 143, we're diving into designer questions! Question 1: Should you share personal vulnerabilities with clients? We chat about the growing trend of sharing personal stories in business and whether it's something you should embrace. Question 2: How do you handle a demanding retainer client? One of our listeners is dealing with a client who's taking up two to three days of their week. We discuss setting clear boundaries, creating a client portal to streamline communication, and whether it's time to reassess the profitability of that retainer. Question 3: How do you overcome the belief that your target clients can't afford your services? We know how frustrating it can be when potential clients balk at your pricing. We'll talk through how to explore different client segments, communicate the true value of your services, and tweak your pricing strategy to suit a range of budgets without compromising on your passion.

The Light, Keys, Retainer, Infallible

Welcome back to Business Unfiltered with Mercer and Jeff Sauer today's topic is How to Price Your Services 0:00: Pricing products and services, starting with setting the first price and reaching profit margins. Mercer and Jeff discuss pricing products and services. Mercer priced his first service offering, a WordPress training video site, based on the time it took to create it. 2:05: Pricing for freelance work, focusing on accounting for expenses and setting appropriate rates. Mercer learned to research competition and set realistic prices. Jeff advises you divide freelancing income by 500, not 2000 hours worked. 7:05: Pricing and estimating hours for projects. Jeff advises against hourly pricing, instead using project-based or retainer models for recurring revenue. 10:45: Pricing and raising rates for freelance work. Jeff suggests you estimate hours for tasks, pad for buffer, and charge based on market rates. Mercer discusses raising rates for consulting services based on years of results and confidence. 14:08: Pricing for digital marketing services based on client size and demand. Jeff argues that charging more for services is not always the best approach, as it may lead to losing clients or getting the wrong ones. He suggests that charging more is only feasible when serving the right clients, who can afford and value the services offered. 18:17: Pricing strategies, including value-based pricing and dynamic pricing, with a focus on finding the right balance between value and price. Mercer compares pricing to fishing, suggesting that charging higher rates can lead to better clients. He discusses value-based pricing, supply and demand, and dynamic pricing in various industries. 21:31: Pricing services, the importance of consistency, and margins. Jeff discusses pricing strategies for agencies, emphasizing the importance of considering the value provided and the client's budget. He believes fixed pricing can be a mistake, as it can limit the agency's ability to adapt to changing circumstances and provide high-quality work. 26:14: Pricing strategies for small businesses. Jeff shares a formula for calculating hourly rates based on profit margin, which he uses in his programs. He shares his formula for business success: $3 in revenue for every $1 spent on labor.

Hey Strangers, #assassinscreed #yasuke #assassinscreedshadows Assassin's Creed Shadows has run into a bizarre controversy surrounding its protagonist Yasuke. A small corner of the internet contends Yasuke's status as a Samurai, and has accused Ubisoft of misrepresentation in a series that was never historically accurate to begin with. Unsurprisingly, none of this kerfuffle seems to have impacted pre-orders for the game. Assassin's Creed Shadows looks set to sell gangbusters regardless of protagonist discourse Reliable insider Tom Henderson has apparently received word from his sources at Ubisoft that AC Shadows' pre-orders are looking strong and no one he's spoken to appears to be disappointed by them. News site Spiel Times also noted that AC Shadows instantly became one of the most pre-ordered games on Amazon in multiple regions including Japan, where it climbed to the top spot. ======================================= My other podcast https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw ************************************************** Epic Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjVc2TZqN4&t=4s ************************************************** article links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2crLch9Mb8&t=38s ====================================== Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discord https://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxq TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoder Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangers Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangers Twitter https://twitter.com/strangestcoder merch Support CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

****** Transcript + Show Notes: https://har.news/vol29 Special thanks to today's sponsor: Caffeine Today's guest is a former professional fundraiser who put those skills to work and went from travel being a part time job on the side in 2017 to full time in June 2018. Here's the thing to know though. Even with $2.5M in sales, that's not the metric our guest watches. This travel advisor has niched down into groups—both destination weddings and celebrations groups—with a minimum of 10 rooms and an average spend of $500-1000 per guest, per day. The metric she does watch is the steady income that comes from her group booking fee of $5,000 per group and the 18 clients that are in her VIP club where there is a $6.5k a year annual retainer that has a minimum annual travel spend of $50k, and that doesn't include air. For today's guest, commission is just icing on the cake. Courtnie Nichols is a study in crafting the business of your dreams by thinking about what you want out of life and reverse engineering your business to fit the lifestyle you want. She only books one destination wedding a month. She takes most of Friday off and focuses on self-care. She lays out who she wants to work with and sticks to it. And December? Forget about it! She and the Travel Bash team take the entire month of December off. So come along for an inspirational conversation with a travel advisor who isn't afraid to do things differently and by doing so, has found a work-life balance others dream of and a steady income stream that no pandemic or natural disaster can wreak havoc on.
