doctors and lawyers also are licensed, highly regulated and heavily insured, not to mention the costs/school to become one. So I understand their fees. I'm not near qualified enough to compare my designing/installing a Media Room with open-heart surgery.
Most everyone In my market will do onsite/proposals for free - not just the trunkslammers, even the large established companies (Even Magnolia). Its just the nature of our market. I personally know just about every AV business owner within a 200 mile radius.
if you are able to pick and choose clients and charge them for this - then you need to be thankful that your market is not as competitive as ours.
it sucks.
Look in your phone book under attorneys and count how many there are. Then go to the AV Integrators and look up how many there are. Lawyers can be found by the thousands every where.
