She was booked and visible, but revenue only grew when she took on more work. KJ is a two-time bestselling author and founder of Hearsay PR, where she's spent nearly three decades helping founders become the person everyone is talking about. In today’s case study, she walks us through her exact service restructure, including cutting more than half her service menu and resetting pricing around outcomes instead of deliverables. These changes increased her average client revenue by 2–3x while significantly reducing her work time by 40 hours per week.
