Customers read newspapers and are hoping for the cheapest quote we all know that were not going to earn any money on these kind of prices, It will pass, been down this road in the last reccession

glad you you got the job graces dad , had to have my say tho i think as time goes on pricing will fluctuate from one extreme to another and go down to levels that wont agree with everybody especially in the economical climate that were in at the moment

 

[simonb43]

Pricing will always be erratic, and rates will drop with the current financial climate. Work is work, and bills have to paid. I don't agree with stupid pricing, but it happens all the time now and will probably get worse.

Good for you Dad for you sticking to your guns and i think you giving the customer warning regarding the cheao quote had the alarm bells ringing....

 

[Fekin]

Good result

:hurray: Nice one dad.

I Think a lot of customers are trying it on with the "Oh, I've had a quote at such and such, which is much cheaper" are just taking the pi55 and that in itself is going to get worse.

Punters are not daft............but they are crafty :yes:

Glad you got the job, this should highlight the fact that no one needs to give it away even if desperate for work.
