Tell me how you go about charging for estimates? We would like to do that! I am being 100% serious here!

I guess that’s one lie we won’t tell. We charge for estimates and will continue to do so.. Great article Paul and food for thought for those that don’t..

Paul I absolutely agree with you and have on occasion replied in this fashion when I’m asked if I give free estimates:

“No, unfortunately I am still bowing to the industry norm and the people who hire me end up paying for everybody’s estimates.”
