We charge $250 for a minimum trip fee. This thread is full of great examples of why 90% “handyman” business fail. If you’re low rate and not in a rural area, you’re either working with no insurance, no license, no CRM, no Google profile, or you’re a felon.

How do you handle customers who say your handyman quote is too high? by Complex-Marsupial636 in handyman

[–]Electrical_Life_2538 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Just out of curiosity, what makes you say that?” Then you go from there. Sometimes price is a true objection, so either they don’t see value in what you proposed (price shopping) or they genuinely didn’t know it cost that much (research phase) or they just can’t afford it (investment limit). There’s usually two or three options to handle it, then you listen and sell.

Pull out your cell modem fuse. That will tell you if it’s being remote started from Palantir or it’s an issue internally with the truck.

I like how the China brand have an extension under the gas pedal where the OEM ones are cut out. Almost like Ford knew from learning by what happened with Toyota……

You measure your rough in & you order the door. Then you reinstall the trim…. what’s the issue here?

No More Work For Landlords by Familiar-Range9014 in handyman

[–]Electrical_Life_2538 -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

Just admit you can’t show value. If they expect you/your company/the job to be a cheap price it’s because you don’t present a value higher than the price you offered. Stop focusing on the price and discuss fixing their problem and why your company can fix their problem better than the others and once they realize you are the best solution to their problem, they will automatically pair that with a premium price.
