#55 | The Exact Sentence to Say When a Client Asks for a Discount

How do you dare to stand out when your market is already crowded with talented people doing what you do? It is one of the questions we hear most often, and in this episode of Upgrade, we explore it with someone who chose a very different path. Anastasia, founder of Happy Moments Collector, decided to go against the current of everything we usually see in luxury communication. She shares her experience, her point of view, and what happened when she stopped following the rules everyone else was playing by. If you work in the luxury industry and feel invisible in a saturated market, this conversation will change the way you look at your brand. 🎙 Guest: Anastasia, Happy Moments Collector

Your face is an asset sitting on your balance sheet. Start spending it! CocoSpark is a 360 agency that turns companies into iconic luxury brands. Link in bio: www.cocospark.com

How many times have you repeated the one idea you want to be known for, before you got bored of hearing your own voice say it? In this episode I break down why repetition is the real force that builds a brand. We look at how the biggest houses in the world come to own a single sentence, why only a tiny fraction of your audience ever sees any given post, and how a ninety day commitment to one message can move it from your mouth into the culture. Pick your one sentence, and say it until the market says it back to you. CocoSpark is a 360 agency that turns companies into iconic luxury brands. Link in bio: www.cocospark.com
