I want to introduce you to Mark Silver, M.Div.

Mark and I have known each other for years. I definitely have a lot of respect for him and his work. I know that many of us struggle around pricing, wanting to be paid well, but also wanting our work to be accessible to the people who need it.

I’ve watched Mark experiment with, and solidify what he calls “Pay from the Heart.” It’s a beautiful, spiritual and grounded approach to pricing.

I trust Mark his anti-capitalist business sense and the ways he shows up in the world.

There is no selling in this webinar. I just want you to get the help, and get to know him. Maybe you’ll be moved to take him up on one of his offers in the future.

Pay from the Heart Pricing

A webinar teaching a collaborative approach to pricing, so your work is accessible, and you can still be paid what you need.

Wednesday, April 22, 2026. Noon – 1 p.m. eastern.

Recording now available.

We’re walking a thin line, trying to presence a new world that is life-affirming, that celebrates and is inclusive of everyone, while at the same time needing to make a living in a global economy that has been traumatizing and dysfunctional.

So how do we walk this line?

Pay From The Heart is not just about some new trendy thing to try to be successful. It’s about walking this strange edge in these times. It’s about helping you thrive in the world as it is, while still honoring your heart and your values around what you, what we all want to see.

A decade spent researching and testing, and seven years in place and working.

Here’s the broad-strokes timeline of my (Mark’s) own learning:

Almost 20 years ago I made a very strong stand against the sliding scale, for very good reasons that still hold true today.

Later I watched my friend Tad Hargrave (from Marketing for Hippies) build up a very successful business in which his flagship weekend workshop was priced at “pay what you want.”

In a difficult marketing situation, I tried out an approach that I came to call “Pay from the Heart.”

Finally, in late 2018, I shifted our core business model over to a Pay from the Heart strategy, and it’s been working really well since.

And through those major steps, I have had many little steps in-between. Reading, researching, testing…

I would love to share what I’ve learned with you, so I hope you can join us. Here’s what I want to cover:

The miserable marketing situation that prompted the first experiment, and the overwhelmingly positive result we saw.
Why I still have strong reservations about “sliding scale.”
Why I chose to switch our main business model from fixed pricing to Pay from the Heart.
The situations where I don’t think Pay from the Heart or similar approaches is helpful.
What I considers to be the key elements to the Pay from the Heart approach, and what happens if you leave them out.
There will be space for questions and coaching.

I will be telling stories and teaching for a big chunk of it, but will also be taking questions and doing some coaching with participants on this topic.
