We started our business about 10 months ago. It's been growing at a decent rate due to referrals. A semi regular client of ours referred his friend to us. He just happens to own a mortgage company so I inquired about doing his employees cars on Fridays. He said they have a guy on Thursdays but he isn't happy with the job they do so wants us. I had my business partner go by there on a Thursday to do a little spy work. They use 4 or 5 guys and charge 20$. We charge 40$ to 50$ when we go to a clients house but for businesses we will go to 25$ if we have enough cars to stay there most of the day. My question is, how the heck do they make money? They can make up for the low price and paying that many people based on volume?
Also he wants us to do it for 20$ as well. Said he isn't sure his employees would be willing to pay more. I'm trying to get him to 25$. Went over everything that makes us different from the place he is using now.
As a side note, has anybody ever ran into some "drama" taking jobs from other places? This is like the 4th place recently that has called us out because they weren't happy with their current guys. Wondering if there is ever "hard feelings" if they happen to come by when we are there. From what I understand they will still be coming out on Thursdays to do the other offices in the complex. Although my goal is to get those people as well.
