I was told my bid was high

unfortunately that is the world we live in a lot of times lowest bid wins regardless. I would think the picture alone to the facility manager or corporate would exclude them from bidding again. That is exposing them to a lot of litigation should something happen to either the workers or patrons of the establishment. You would think the facility manager would understand but a lot of times it just isn't that way.

I guarantee they understand , they didn't know what they bought. These guys are ripping off the consumers, we stand back because guys say we all have to start someplace.

How about we all start at a fair starting point. The place where we all compete on a level of professionalism an safety.

The board of directors at this facility have seen this photo. It's hits google an someone watching has looked.

Now what will they do.

I say that when safety if an issue we need to rally together an be safer.

Andy don't send the photo to the customer. I don't think it will do your company any good. Although my good Freind suggested it I just think it will get you on a black ball list. Shame because your actually doing them a favor. But it won't be looked at that way.

I still stand we don't turn our brothers in, we should help them. Help them know there's a safe profitable way. Before someone gets killed an the black eye is in our industry.

Some will say don't train your competitors. Everyone needs the fundamentals , raise the standards in your area raises the prices.

Part of it Ron is educating the client. I try to have a face to face or at least a phone conversation to promote my services.Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

Not saying it wasn't done here however the more we educate the client with what our process is and why they should choose us the more we will get these jobs at our price. One point i always push is SAFETY..It sells

I get it though, there are always going to be price driven customers no matter what. Ive been where Andy has been- sucks!
 
3 points of contact, out the window!

Tired of training consumers, isn't there an org that should do this ? Promote the industry an those involved?

This buyer is going to get a news letter every month from that org from now on.

If they fall, surely an ambulance chasing sue-happy attorney will contact them about suing that place for letting them do what they did, too bad the owner or manager has not seen this and put a stop to the craziness.
