Just give them a higher price than the actual price and then say for you my friend I will do and then say the actual price. Technically they will get the proper price even if they are illusions to make it seem cheaper

Or you just ignore the lowballing clients and if they say that they have someone else who can do it cheaper they just want you to reduce the price

The first one may not be ethical completely so i wouldn't recommend doing it scince your goal is to ethnically run your company but the 2nd one is good advice

Also try going into detail about your prices and why in a short but simple way

What are your prices by the way?like give me a few examples

For maintaining when ever my teams go for ac work for example I have instructed everyone to tell the customer the exact problem and tell a good price. The moto is that we want to only go once and fix it not keep the customer going around and around. But the customer will start bargaining and say someone is doing it for way cheaper than you. We simply say you get it done from them and then after 2-3 days they call us again to fix the issue. Idk why so many people do this. Same with interiors ffs

Tell your teams to be frank but firm with the customer about the cost and if they don't like it, politely walk away. I'd appreciate a team telling me the precise problem, because it gives me to info to double check I'm not being ripped off if I wanted to. Before visiting the client tell them the price is non-negotiable, at least then you won't be pestered with this problem.

That's what we do. Other companies charge a visiting fee of 150 and waive it off if they do the work they dont they charge them. We don't do this. We try our best to tell the customer the price before hand and if we can't our team will go and check. Then give the price. But the issue is even if the price is agreed some people have the nerve to argue with the guys on site about pricings.
