Decide to Pursue or Disengage from the Project

right now and see what what comes about. I'm going out coaching tonight, but I want to wrap this video up so you guys know where I left it. That on the spot bid that I gave that customer, that's all the more I'm going to pursue it. I could tell that this guy, his taste was way up here and his budget was way down here. And I'm not going to waste my time trying to make up the dis the the difference. Some people have to learn on their own. And I don't need to be their teacher. I'm your teacher. I'm your contractor. I'm the guy that's here to help you guys. So, if you're going to be wasting time on customers like that, you don't have the option now to go out and pursue other people that have more realistic expectations. You might the next person, their budget may be right here and their expectations are right here. And all you got to do is ek out a little bit of a difference. Those are the guys you want. But a lot of guys have such a gap in it that forget it. it's not worth your time. And that's what I'm doing. I'm forgetting this guy. He's got my my number. He's got my card. If he needs my help, I'll come in and then pursue it further. But even then, I'm not going to spend a lot of time with this guy until our expectations match up. So, on the spot bidding, it saved me going back here and typing on my computer and figuring out engineering costs and getting permit fees and all that other stuff because that takes time. that takes time away from other jobs. You don't have a lot of time. You're a contractor. Very rarely do those things pay off. Occasionally, they do. I will tell you, it's not always that this guy will flake out on you, but sometimes they'll come through and it works out. To me, it's not worth the gamble. Take it for what it is. You can use on on the spot bidding as a tool to determine where your customer's intentions lie. There you go. It works. I use it. I use it on this one and I use it for big jobs. I use it for little jobs. I'll use it for a $50 lawn. And I use it for a $50,000 landscaping job. It works when you know how to use it. I get to go watch a bunch of 12-year-old girls. My girls soccer team beat Rochester. Catch you later.
