Q & A

Why do some people feel confused when others get promotions or their products sell better?

This confusion arises when individuals feel their achievements or products are better than those of others, but still don't receive the rewards or recognition they expect. It often happens because the value they offer, as perceived by the market or management, may not align with their expectations.

What is the second principle of 'Rise Above the Crowd' mentioned in the script?

The second principle is 'Value is the currency of success.' This means that success is determined by the value you provide, whether in your work, your products, or your services. The better the value you offer, the more likely you are to succeed.

How are professional rates determined according to the script?

Professional rates are not determined by the number of working hours but by the value you provide during that time. If your service or product is valuable, it justifies a higher rate.

What does the example of the international company paying 90 million rupiah for a two-hour seminar illustrate?

This example illustrates that the value of a speaker or trainer is determined not just by their knowledge, but also by their ability to deliver and create an experience that adds value to the audience. The company is willing to pay a high fee for this perceived value.

Why might someone feel that their product is better than a competitor's but still have lower sales?

This may occur because the market perceives the competitor’s product as having higher value, even if the quality is similar. The emotional elements, like brand image, packaging, and customer perception, can heavily influence this perception.

What role does 'value' play in market transactions?

In market transactions, value is the key currency. If a product or service is deemed valuable by the consumer or market, they will exchange their money for it. If the value does not match the price or expectation, the transaction will not occur.

How can you increase your chances of promotion or higher rates as an employee or entrepreneur?

You can either lower your rates or enhance the value of your skills, products, or services. By improving the quality of what you offer, you make yourself or your product more valuable in the eyes of others, making promotions or higher rates more attainable.

What factors influence the market's perception of your value?

The market's perception of your value is influenced by both functional and emotional elements. Functional elements are the tangible results you provide, while emotional elements include your reputation, the impression you make on others, and how closely your values align with those of the company or market.

What is the relationship between self-worth and success according to the script?

Success is linked to self-worth. If your self-worth is aligned with the value you bring to the table, you will be able to achieve success. This means you need to invest in improving both your functional skills and emotional qualities to be seen as valuable in the market.

How does the law of demand and supply affect your value in the market?

The law of demand and supply states that when demand for a product or service is high and supply is low, the price will be higher. In the context of self-worth, this means that if your skills or services are in high demand and not easily found elsewhere, your perceived value will increase, allowing you to set higher rates or receive promotions.
