Pricing

Have you ever had that feeling of annoyance when someone accepts a quote immediately and says something along the lines of:

“oh wow I thought it would be more than that” 

or

“that’s well cheap”? 

On the other hand, have you had potential custom immediately decline your offer stating that they have had a cheaper quote elsewhere? You’re now kicking yourself for misjudging the situation.

As Aaron says himself, the chance that you are going to offer the exact price the customer is willing to pay is pretty much zero.


“Don’t leave money on the table”

 So, what’s the solution? 

Three prices.


If you haven’t come across the concept before, let me explain. The three-price concept lets the customer decide what they want to pay. You essentially are providing them with three quotes. Three prices, three different levels of service and three different lists of features. That way you are catering for all types of shoppers.

Those who live the highlife regardless of cost, those who sit firmly on the middle and care about good quality at a reasonable price, and those who are on a tight budget and a low cost is the most important thing to them.

There is so much detail to go into around this that Aaron has written a book on it, The Quote Handbook – Essential Steps to Building the Perfect Boiler Quote. You can grab a copy on Amazon 

Here’s a paragraph from the book to give you a taster…

“You cannot be cheap and offer a highend service as your bottom line, profit won’t be present… you will be bending over backwards for a pittance. Don’t bend over backwards for pittance! Pick a path and stick to it, be budget or high-end – just don’t mix the two as your marketing material and image won’t be aligned.”

More Information- CJRS and SEISS

As we start another week,  I felt it was important for me to share the latest updates with you regarding the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme. HMRC Recovery Powers HMRC have put together the draft legislative package to reclaim payments under CJRS and the Self-Employed Income Support Scheme. This is subject to a HMRC consultation which comes to an end on 12th June. Under the draft legislation, HMRC will have the power, by way of a 100% tax charge, to recover payments which were either: Not due Not used to pay wages and PAYE Not used to make pension contributions Penalties will be imposed where there has been deliberate non-compliance. This comes at the same time as HMRC have notified that, to date, they have picked up on nearly 2,000 fraudulent CJRS claims to date. This is, in part, due to ongoing calls to their Fraud hotline number 0800 788887 and also through their online whistle-blower report webpage. Big reminder – 10th June last dat...
