Your rough-in needs to cost more.
That would make them less busy?

Yes, it would.

I hear from this that their solution, then, is just to do less business. Refuse customers. That pesky prewire problem only exists if you're doing systems.
Isn't that a bit ridiculous?
Years ago Circuit City had a problem with overhead. They cured that by firing their salespeople. That lowered the overhead!
Looking seriously, though, how do you calculate how much to raise your prices so that you earn at least as much money as now, while doing fewer jobs so you have less prewire to cope with?
I'm actually not serious at this point. That was just a bit of trolling. I don't think the solution is to do things to discourage people from wanting their services. The solution is to find someone else to do them, which is where they're heading.
