… the social media manager's toolkit was exactly what I needed to get a new fresh view and kickstart. Especially the section about what we should be charging, made me realise that I have massively undercharged. So today I let a client go, that was paying too little and it feels great. If you get paid little they don't value the work you put in and what it takes. Thank you, Laura Moore and Laura Davis this was exactly what I needed. I am excited for what is to come! #icandoit.

All I can say is, this has everything you need – buy it!

How Do I Set My Prices?
The Pricing & Increasing Your Income Module includes:
- Essential steps to setting your pricing so you’re actually charging what you’re worth (not just plucking a number out of thin air, then arguing with yourself as you slowly whittle it down to a much smaller number).
- How much you should actually charge for: local business with local clients; businesses with national/international clients; and agencies + setting day rates.
- How to get to your first £1k month (and then reach £2k per month).
- How to add affiliate income to your business.
I'm bloody lovin' the toolkit, it's amazing!! I haven't even finished looking through it yet but the pricing bit alone is the kind of honest and straightforward advice I've been looking for, for the last year!

FAQs
I’m brand new - is this for me?
YES! This toolkit will turbo-charge the start of your social media management business, giving you the resources and confidence to find, and win clients that will pay you what you deserve.
I’ve been running my business for a while - is this for me?

“
One of the best business investments I have made. I’ve been running my own business for the past 10 months and with over 20+ years experience in marketing, I didn’t really think I needed a toolkit. However, I was curious about the hype and decided to go ahead and purchase… I can honestly say I have been more proactive for my business in the last week since buying it than I have been in the last 10 months. It’s definitely up there as one of the best business investments I have made.
