I have been getting frustrated lately, because
I am having a hard time getting jobs, without
giving a "free" estimate. I know there is a time,
and place for free estimates, like with established
customers you know you will do business with.

My problem is, everytime I try to explain to
a new customer I need to charge them to come out
and look to give an accurate estimate, I lose
them right then and there.
It's like they expect me to work for free, and
give them free gas @ 3+ dollars a gallon!

I don't know how to get around this, since there
are a lot of guys out there who are giving out
free estimates,

I am just about ready to close my doors, and go
work for somebody.

A licensed, bonded, insured, and Cedia certified
tech should not have this much trouble finding
work.
