Why You Should Double Your Prices

Andrews argues that most small business owners drastically underprice their services because they lack confidence, fear losing customers, and anchor to competitor pricing instead of value delivered. He shares data showing that doubling prices typically loses 10-20% of customers but increases revenue 60-80%.

Canon

Andrews advises building pricing courage through graduated increases: raise by 10%, observe that customers stay, raise another 10%, observe again. Each successful increase builds the courage muscle for the next one, proving that the founder's fear of customer loss is exaggerated.

Highlights

Doubling prices typically loses 10-20% of customers but increases total revenue by 60-80% — and the customers you lose are usually the most demanding and least profitable
Andrews presents data from Dynamite Circle members who raised prices significantly: the average result was losing 15% of customers while increasing revenue 65%. The lost customers were disproportionately the ones who complained most, paid slowest, and demanded the most support.
