How to Price a Neuro Linguistic Programmer



Neuro linguistic programming, a system of self-improvement which uses visualization and reprogramming to eliminate roadblocks to personal communication and success, has been helping people improve their lives for four decades. It is commonly used to treat phobias, addictions and bad habits, or to simply improve a person's business or personal life. The price and quality of NLP practitioners varies widely. Judging whether or not a neuro linguistic programmer is charging a fair price requires a bit of research.

Make an Informed Decision About the Price of a Neuro Linguistic Programmer




1


Figure out what you want from NLP. For instance, you may seek out NLP for addiction therapy, career advancement, improved performance in
sports
or other goals.





2


Appraise the advertising. There are numerous Web sites touting NLP practitioners. You can begin your search at the NLP Practitioners Directory (see Resources below).





3


Visit individual practitioners' Web sites to get a feel for them before calling or emailing. Is the practitioner's Web site "busy," full of flashing icons and exclamation points? How much actual information is located on it?





4


Compare the services offered to your goals to make sure the practitioner can give you what you need.





5


Single out at least three different individuals or companies.





6


Call the practitioners you have selected. Notice how they each sound on the phone, whether they are likable or pushy. Notice how forthcoming they are with price and product information. Do they guarantee their work?

Reflect on the information you have gathered, comparing it once again to your goals and budget.

Make your decision and call for an appointment with the programmer of your choice.








Tips & Warnings










Neuro linguistic programming is often expensive. Decide in advance how much you can afford to pay. Don't let anyone talk you into fees far outside of your price range.








There is no governing body or set of rules to standardize the practice of neuro linguistic programming. Seek out objective sources and, if possible, talk to former NLP clients before making a decision.








Watch out for outlandish claims that seem too good to be true. They probably are.








Do not use NLP to treat migraines, seizure disorder or any other serious medical condition, whether physical or mental. See a doctor instead.








Before you start any alternative medical technique, be aware that many have not been scientifically evaluated. Often, only limited information is available about their safety and effectiveness. Each state and each discipline has its own rules about how alternative medicine practitioners can be professionally licensed. If you decide to visit one, choose one licensed by a recognized national organization. Consult your primary health care provider about your decision first. Keep your doctor informed about the alternative medical technique you undertake.
