What do you find the most equitable method to use
Each would have its merits and draw backs I find room pricing simple and EZ and living in a rural area not driving forth and back to do in house quotes. What say you?

I can do it cause I live in the oil capital of Canada and only go after the high end of the market by refferals. We have over 8000 millionares living in this city. Not hard to do under those circustances. People living out in areas that do not have the demographics can not do this . ------------- Inventor of the Teflon Wand Glide and the Turboteck Rotary Air Duct Cleaners for TMs. |

There are companies right here in the GTA doing the very same thing Ken does... The higher the price the better customer you attract... |

I find that quoting by the area involved works well for us. I do most (over 90%) of the quotes 'in-home' as well. -Allen |

You must know the what a tipical room would involve and once you have some experiance, it will always work itself out in the wash. I priced one on the phone the otherday and when I measured it up, I was short $4. It usually washes out. $.50 would be awsome!!! ------------- H8 DIRT |
