For years, I charged between and .
Then one day in February 2025, someone reached out to me on Facebook from a campaign I was running as at then.
To be honest, I didnāt think the conversation would lead anywhere. They didnāt seem that interested, so I didnāt put too much hope into it.
The next day, they were the one who followed up and reminded me about the proposal.
I was suprised, so I sent it... but because I have always wanted to scale, I did what I hadnāt done before..
i increased my pricing made my lowest package what l used to charge as my top package and increase the premium package to a little over 1 million naira
Then I turned oft my internet. šyes you read right..
Not because I was busy.
Because I was scared.
I kept thinking, āWhat if they say itās too expensive?ā I concluded with telling myself that the worse is that I lose the gig.
Hours later, I turned my phone back on.
There were missed calls.
When we eventually spoke, they didnāt negotiate ok.
They chose the highest package.
That day changed how I saw pricing forever.
Sometimes the biggest thing standing between you and higher income isnāt your skill.
Itās the story youāve been telling yourself about what people are willing to pay.
Have you ever underestimated yourself? Tell me what happened.
