I have a former coaching client who came up with a cool idea. She suggested that I create a pricing challenge with this community. I'd create a fictional (or maybe even a real) scenario, throw it out to this group, and see who gets closest to that price. It wouldn't be reward-based since we all can come up with a price and we all could be correct provided the price is profitable. But this way we could work through a price together and see how we each do things differently based on our pricing strategy.

Quick question, I'm curious what is standard and how y'all manage this. In our contracts we have Holiday's listed that we do not work on. When a cleaning day falls on a holiday do y'all schedule the clean for a different day that week, or just skip it all together?

Hello, I have a referral for a residential post-construction cleaning client. After submitting my bid—which included post-construction cleaning, internal and external window cleaning, and power washing a 300 sq. ft. area near the pool—the client said my quote was too high. He believes the job should take no more than a day to a day and a half, noting that the interior is mostly clean and that the primary focus is on the windows. His suggested budget is less than half of what I originally quoted. He also mentioned that after final fixes, the painters, floor finishers, and plumbers would clean up after themselves. He offered to send photos for a revised quote instead of having me visit the property again, as it’s about an hour away. I’m hesitant to rely solely on pictures, as I don't want to commit to a quote without a clear understanding of the actual workload. Additionally, I’m uncomfortable with the client estimating how long the job should take, as it may not be accurate. If I do proceed with a quote based on photos, I’m considering including a clause that states the price is subject to change after an in-person inspection. Any thoughts or recommendations on how to navigate this?
