#260 How Service Providers Can Confidently Sell High-Ticket Offers with Stacey Brass-Russell

Author: Emily Reagan | Digital Marketing Mentor, Speaker September 9, 2025 Duration: 53:24

You can’t keep charging by the hour if you want to grow your service provider business. It’s time to package up your skills into high-ticket offers that show off your expertise and the transformation you bring to the table. I know raising your rates can feel scary, and sometimes it’s hard to even put into words the real value of what you do. I want you to step into those bigger offers with confidence, stop playing small, and get paid for the true impact you deliver!

I’m joined by Stacey Brass-Russell, a Transformational Business and Life Coach who has helped hundreds of coaches, experts, and service providers build profitable, values-driven businesses. Stacey’s journey has taken her from Broadway actress to yoga studio owner to inspirational speaker and host of the Passionate & Prosperous podcast. Featured in Forbes, The New York Post, and Entrepreneur, and named one of NYC’s Top 15 Coaches, Stacey specializes in helping people create signature systems, master their message, and attract clients through authentic, service-based strategies.


Listen to learn more about:

  • Why moving away from “time for money” is the first step to creating high-ticket offers
  • Stacey’s Genius Edge framework — how to align your brilliance, your offers, and your marketing
  • The truth about the “trust recession” and how it impacts your ability to sell high-ticket offers
  • Practical ways to shift your sales confidence so you can actually ask for (and get!) those bigger investments
  • How to position yourself as an indispensable PARTNER instead of just another service provider


Stop piecing together small projects or staying stuck at newbie VA rates. This episode will show you how to break through that ceiling and start selling the high-ticket offers that can truly change your business (and your life).
