She doubled her revenue during COVID.
And still almost got commoditized.
Let that sit for a moment.
On a recent episode of The Luxe Leap, Natasha Galinsky shared a story that every woman consultant building toward Champagne Clientele needs to hear.
Not because it’s about web development.
But because it’s about positioning.
And positioning is power.
When “Everyone” Suddenly Does What You Do
During COVID, Natasha’s agency was thriving. The world moved online. Demand surged. Revenue doubled.
But something else happened.
Suddenly, everyone and their dog became a “web developer.”
Freelancers overseas.
DIY platforms.
Low-ticket designers.
$40-an-hour conversations.
The market flooded.
And the shift was subtle — but dangerous.
More price comparisons.
More “why are you more expensive?”
More explaining.
If you’re a woman consultant, you’ve felt this.
You’re brilliant. Experienced. Strategic.
Yet somehow… you’re being compared.
That’s not a skill issue.
That’s a positioning issue.
The Pivot Most Women Avoid
Here’s where the story turns.
Natasha didn’t lower her prices.
She didn’t add bonuses.
She didn’t start competing on volume.
She repositioned.
No more general builds.
No more “we do it all.”
No more being lumped in.
She carved out a precise lane:
Custom. Complex. Code-driven development.
The team you call when it’s tricky.
Specific.
Clear.
Unapologetic.
And this is the part that matters:
She didn’t grow by adding more services.
She grew by removing them.
She stopped being the drawer of knives.
She became the one knife you reach for when precision matters.
That is an extraordinary brand move.
Why Women Consultants Stay Stuck
Let’s talk about you.
You want premium clients.
You want fewer calls with higher conversions.
You want referrals that already respect your pricing.
But instead:
• You’re still explaining why you cost more
• You’re still attracting mid-tier clients
• You’re still feeling slightly replaceable
Here’s the truth most won’t say:
If the market sees you as broad,
it will treat you as optional.
When your messaging sounds familiar,
your pricing becomes negotiable.
When your brand feels “good,”
it attracts clients who think “good enough” is acceptable.
That’s how women leak dream dollars.
And it has nothing to do with talent.
It has everything to do with perception.
The Glass Ceiling No One Mentions
We love talking about glass ceilings in corporate terms.
But in consulting?
The glass ceiling is often brand perception.
If you are positioned as replaceable,
you will fight for every dollar.
If you are positioned as specialized,
you will be sought after.
Extraordinary brands don’t just look polished.
They filter.
They signal:
“I am not for everyone.”
“And everyone is not for me.”
That clarity builds authority.
Authority builds demand.
Demand builds uncommon wealth.
Not hustle.
Not volume.
Not discounting.
Precision.
Specificity Is a Wealth Strategy
Let’s get practical.
When you narrow your positioning:
• Sales calls get shorter
• Price objections decrease
• Referrals become cleaner
• Scope creep shrinks
• Your energy stabilizes
Energy is currency.
Women consultants don’t burn out because they lack expertise.
They burn out because they’re trying to be everything.
Natasha didn’t scale by doing more.
She scaled by choosing less — with conviction.
That’s what creates uncommon wealth.
Revenue that respects you.
Clients that trust you.
Work that aligns with your genius.
No strategy. No clarity. No lane. No leverage.
But when you own your lane?
Everything shifts.
Stop competing on price.
Start positioning with precision.
Stop explaining your value.
Start embodying it.
Stop doing it all.
Start doing what only you can do.
