CLIENT β How much will it cost to do this job?
CONTRACTOR - 1.5million
CLIENT β Thatβs too expensive for this job!
CONTRACTOR β How much do you think it should cost?
CLIENT β 800k max! Itβs a simple job!
CONTRACTOR β I canβt do the job for so little.
CLIENT β People in your line of work wants to make a huge profit!
CONTRACTOR β Iβm sorry you feel this way. Why donβt you do the job?
CLIENT β But, but, I donβt know how to do any of that.
CONTRACTOR β For 300k, I can teach you everything you need to know to do the job. You can then use 800k to do the job, and youβre still saving 400k . Also, you will obtain all the knowledge and the experience for the next time you need to do this job.
CLIENT β Deal!
CONTRACTOR β Great! To start, you need to buy tools. You will need a chipping hammer, a nail gun, a laser, a drill, a mixer machine, Grinder, PPE, and some other things.
CLIENT β But, I donβt have any of those tools and I canβt buy all that for just one job!
CONTRACTOR β Ok. I can rent you my tools for another 150k. Youβre still saving 250k.
CLIENT β Thatβs cutting my savings, but I will rent your tools.
CONTRACTOR β Perfect! Iβll be back Saturday and we can start.
CLIENT β Wait! I canβt Saturday. I only have time today.
CONTRACTOR β Iβm sorry, I only teach others on Saturdays. I have to prioritize my time and my tools needs to be in other jobs I have during the week.
CLIENT β Ok then. I will sacrifice my familyβs plans on Saturday.
CONTRACTOR β Right, me too! Oh, I forgot. If youβre going to do the job yourself, you need to buy the materials. Thereβs a high demand nowadays, so your best bet is to get a truck and be at the hardware store by 6am before other contractors get there.
CLIENT β AT SIX IN THE MORNING? On Saturday? Thatβs too early for me. I donβt even have a truck!
CONTRACTOR β I guess youβll have to rent one. By the way, do you have some helpers to help you load the truck?
CLIENT β You know what? Iβve been thinking. Probably it's better for you to do the job. Itβs better to pay you to do the job right and not having to go through all that hassle.
CONTRACTOR β Good thinking. Sign here and let me get to work.
This is the truth.
People are not just paying for a job, they are paying for knowledge, experience, tools, time, family sacrifices, and other things you bring to the table. They pay for their Convenience.
Donβt let others dictate your worth.
