Cold Calling Win

I posted little back about a cold call out of the blue through a realtor. After a quote with 3 different options and little bit of discussion of why they varied. Reached out wanting to change the scope of work. Stuck to the formulas I (AI) came up for different types of jobs and different scopes of work but each one would allow me to at least meet crew day number or high depending on terrain difficulty / density. Guy reached out to change the scope of work put those numbers in and spit out the 4 quote to him with an acceptance and a 50% deposit. We are starting it tomorrow. Good length of trail with a decent amount of steepness ( I was out of breath walking it, but it’s a go with skid steer… just up and back motion no turns on hill).

Stick to your numbers if they don’t like it they can look else where. Business isn’t cheap, isn’t cheap to operate and no one does it to kill time (there’s better things I’d do)

In person I told the guy I met with bottom dollar just to do the flat areas no trails would 6k minimum 10-12k would be high, I just hope the original quote sent with the highest scope of work being 17 burned a bridge with him… will see if he calls again
