Swear to God...I just got at text from a customer

[Brian R]

They said....and I quote

"I'm only willing to pay $100.00 for the upstairs carpet"


:shock:

The balls on that lady (not like that Bawb)

I responded with

"We will surely do as much as possible for $100.00"

Haven't heard back.

I'm still shocked over it.


I'm going out to eat tonight and I'm going to say to the waiter.

"I'm only willing to pay $10.00 for the steak dinner"

And see what happens.


I thought this stuff only showed up in fake presentations of the Joe Polish "raise your prices" brew hahas.

Go figure.

why didn't you call her?

 

[Burtz]

your just going to swirl the dirt around how much can that service really be worth anyway

Nahh, it was Las Vegas.....they flood out the dirt there. !gotcha!

 

[Brian R]

why didn't you call her?

She Texted me. I stick with the format unless they ask different.

 

[Mountain View Carpet Care]

Time to stop posting on Craigslist.

 

[XTREME1]

stick with the format on an open ended discussion and you have the number you are not a true business/saleman. I stick to format and that is my policy but I do returned missed calls, I will call if the situation needs a higher level of expectation such as an open ended text

Nahh, it was Las Vegas.....they flood out the dirt there.

yeah right

 

[Brian R]

I wasn't worried about this one....for obvious reasons.

 

[XTREME1]

some of "those" ones have become some of my best referers. I guess with a bigger net you can be more selelctive

I'm sure of that. But I wasn't willing to pursue it. If she was willing then of course I would have done the job.

 

[XTREME1]

yes because everyone posturing is bad

 

[Brian R]

You and I have been in this business long enough to trust our gut.

 

[Desk Jockey]

We target $160.00 and hour but that's a two man crew.

As a single owner op, I'd take $100.00 as long as the cleaning could be accomplished in reasonable time and it's in my service area.

Lets see an hour on the BB's or $100.00 in my pocket.....that's a tough one! :roll:

Kinda like one of those fat ugly chicks after one of your gigs........hit it and deny you did!

 

[Brian R]

Lmao!

Like said, we would have done the job but the point was just the nerve of some people.

"I'm only willing to pay so much..."

Then you only get so much.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Then you only get so much.

That's what the ugly girl said after the gig!

you need to get the waiter cell phone # and txt it to him, much less confrontational.

That was only funny the first 100 times I heard it. Get your own material.
