I think some of you cocky veterans are in the same position that I am where your new customers come from such a strong referral source that they don't ask the price when you arrive...
On occasion I've done the work then come up with a price that I've later regretted. Either I went high out of frustration caused by poor conditions or the customer didn't prepare the house and I ended up moving too much furniture. Only to later realize that my emotions probably killed any chance of them calling back.
Ive been wrong and had them call a year or so later but my guilt is present until they do..
Do any of you worry about this sort of stuff?
Marty's comment of sticking to a phone quote price on a job that took twice as long as he guessed stired this up in me.
Granted it's only happend a few times here in NV but I can still recall those jobs....
