Emmanuel’s Answer

Let's embark on a thought experiment. Picture yourself 30 years from now, enriched with wisdom from decades of hard work in your field. You've had an ingenious idea to launch your own business. But here's the catch: you'll need to leave behind a lucrative six-figure job and embrace two years of financial uncertainty as you develop your market and execute your business plan. Then, the time comes to bring in a team.

The burning question is: How much should you compensate your employees? Don't forget, if your venture falters, you could risk losing everything you've strived for. Should you offer a lofty salary regardless of market rates, or should you align with what skilled individuals are commanding or requesting? Every dollar saved on salaries is a dollar that can sustain you and your loved ones. This conundrum is one faced by countless businesses. While they may not be the major employers in America, the same principles apply. Businesses that thrive often excel at offering their products or services at the most competitive prices.

It's vital to consider what customers are willing to pay and not simply mirror the prices set by other companies. Countless remarkable businesses have met their demise because they priced themselves beyond the market's reach. Striking the right balance is crucial, and it's essential to approach this challenge with a compelling and persuasive mindset.

Showing their hands does nothing for them. Their incentive is to get you to work for how much you are willing to work for, not how much they are willing to pay, in most cases.
