ADVICE

Ask Why Before Quoting A Price

  • Do lead a focused "why conversation" to uncover what the homeowner truly values before pricing or committing.
  • Jonathan recommends asking why they want professional help, why now, and what alternatives they considered to reveal motivation and budget fit.
INSIGHT

Clients Determine Value You Set The Price

  • Insight: Clients assign value, you set price — don't try to "value" their project for them.
  • Jonathan: price the service and let the homeowner decide if the value matches their priorities like lifestyle or resale.
ADVICE

Give One Fixed Price For The Vision Phase

  • Do fixed-price schematic proposals to quickly qualify leads and remove buyer discomfort.
  • Offer one clear number (e.g., Daniel's $8–12k range suggested as a single price) and state calendar time and client hours required.
