its been along time now since i had someone call me up and say 'how much per hour do you charge?'
they didnt even tell me what the plumbing project was...just 'how much'
I decided to spend some time and educate this person.
'hiring a plumber by his hourly rate is not a good idea. Some plumbers use deceptive hourly rates to trick you. will they send their slowest plumber? how much is his markup on parts? 200-400%?'
then i told her how much i charged and she said she'd talk w/ her husband.click
im strongly considering just saying 'sorry im not the cheapest plumber please call someone else'
not one has turned into a job....what would i have to lose by getting them off the phone as quickly as possible....is there a less rude way to say 'no thanks'?
i may ask what her cheapest rate is so far? and what she thinks is fair?
these people have all been rude to me...give me a number-click
