Well perhaps you guys are right, I just need to be more bold about pricing. I just started this business earlier this year, and I guess I dont have the confidence about pricing yet. I guess I have a hangup about overpricing, and running off a customer. I have over 30 years experience in the trade but not nescissarily at contracting.
I dont consider myself competing with contractors who dont do quality work. Although as a newbe contractor, I am finding that one of my competitors does lowsy work, and gets all he can, and he's really easy to compete with. :smile: Most all of the other conctractors in town (I would say 80%) are competent and honest. I know this because I was the electrical inspector for 5 years, and I know all of their work like the back of my hand, including those who dont care.
I think in truth, I need to start doing some larger jobs if I want to work my son-inlaw effeciently. Also be more bold about pricing.
