I recently needed to have a licensed plumber do some work. Like security integrators, good plumbers are not cheap (nor should they be) and they commonly deal with DIYers who claim they can install DIY equipment much cheaper.
On the invoice, the plumbing company printed this to cool off anyone upset about high prices:
My thoughts:
- Who the heck reads this?!?! Wall of words in tiny print on a ticket, I bet no one that might be swayed by this reads it. There has to be a better way of expressing/displaying this, but how?
- I really like the points it makes to justify higher prices - better equipment, skilled techs, on-site service & warranties. These are all 'value points' many integrators sell themselves on too.
Do you print something similar on your invoices? Do you think it works?
