How to Productize Your Services

Step 1: Identify Your Repeatable Work

What do you do for most clients that follows a similar process?
List your most common engagements.

Step 2: Define the Scope

For each service:

What exactly is included?
What's explicitly NOT included?
What do you need from the client?
What will they receive?

Step 3: Set the Price

Options:

Value-based: What's the outcome worth?
Market-based: What do competitors charge?
Cost-plus: Your time × target rate + margin

Step 4: Create the Process

Document:

Intake process
Delivery steps
Templates and tools
Quality checks
Delivery format

Step 5: Build the Sales Page

A dedicated page (or ConsultPitch page) for each offering:

Clear headline (outcome-focused)
What's included (bullet list)
What they'll get (deliverables)
Investment (price)
Buy/book button

Productized Service Pricing

Don't price too low. Productized doesn't mean cheap.

Entry-level: $500-$2,000 (audits, quick wins)
Mid-tier: $3,000-$10,000 (projects, implementations)
High-tier: $15,000+ (strategic, comprehensive)

Common Pitfalls

Too much customization - defeats the purpose
Underpricing - productized ≠ discounted
Fuzzy scope - leads to creep
No systems - can't scale
Hiding the price - friction kills conversion
