The thing nobody tells you
You are not too expensive
First you think the price is wrong. So you sharpen it.
Then the margin goes. So you push the crew harder.
Then the good ones leave. And now you are certain it is you.
It was never any of those.
A trade business gets the customers its marketing invites, its quoting lets through and its terms tolerate. Every one of them was let in by something, and every one of those things is a decision you can change.
“Do not feel like you are too expensive because of that.”
What it is actually costing
The discount is the smallest part
The discount
Sharpened to win it. Then the variations you never charged for, then the hours going back to argue.
The sixty day wait
Your invoice sits out at sixty days. Your suppliers want thirty. You fund the gap.
The job you could not take
Still tied up on a bad one. This never shows in your accounts, and it is usually the bigger number.
Your best people
Nobody good stays to be spoken to like that, or on a crew pushed to make up margin given away at the quote.
What changes
A business that attracts the other kind
A customer you chose
Who you are for and who you are not for. Written down, and used to say no.
A price that holds
Built off your real numbers, and presented so it is not a line item to argue with.
Terms that get you paid
Deposits, progress claims, a signed scope. Used every time, so it is a system and not a confrontation.
A business that runs without you
Work comes in without you chasing it, and jobs run without every problem reaching your phone.
“I think you could tell they wanted cheap.”
He worked that out on a coaching call, after a year certain his prices were the problem. What changed was not the price. It was that his business stopped going looking for those customers.
