Man this is the real deal if you can't market your self it wont matter how skilled you are. I have a lot to learn on sales I get half of my bids but think could do better by learning salesmanship! I have learned as I go and have never tried to put down competition! Salesmen have a way of getting to buy when they know its high end price .
I'm humble and try to speak truth,but a good salesman has to market his goods to make them look better than they are, and I have witnessed this!! My best bid came from a salesman customer I had cut a dead elm for. He told the referral who I was and what he thought I would charge for removing a similar tree. He then called me and told me what he told the customer and to expect a call. I thanked him and the next day I took a dead pine down at twice the pay that I usually charge! Anyone ever experience this? I thought of hiring a part time sales guy to bid my work lol.
