Another good answer to being shopped...
"Do you want us to still be in business when your need a service call?".
If a company doesn't make a profit, it cannot stay in business. Look around at all the companies that went under in the last 10 years. This one fact IS a fact. So many shops weren't really making a profit, so when things slowed down, they went under, leaving clients stuck.
This was a HUGE one back in the housing boom when so many dealers were wiring homes for free.
Back then I was talking to a lot of those builders and I kept asking: Do you ever wonder about the business skills of a contractor who would do this? Does it occur to you they won't be around to finish the job? [And they weren't]
