What happens when brilliant women founders keep getting sorted into the "cheap pile" despite delivering exceptional work? Why are experienced operators with strong reputations suddenly being compared on price, pressured to justify their fees, and working harder than ever to maintain growth? In this episode, Eleanor breaks down what she calls The Great Re-Sort, the market shift that is quietly dividing expertise businesses into two categories: strategic partners and service providers. Join Eleanor this week as she explains why this shift has accelerated in the AI era, the difference between being hired for execution versus being brought in upstream as a trusted strategic partner, and why many women founders are already operating at a strategic level while still being positioned and compensated like interchangeable service providers. Eleanor also shares why this is not a confidence problem or a visibility problem, but a positioning problem, and what founders must do to intentionally reposition themselves into the strategic partner category where durability, premium pricing, and long-term business value are created.
