What you'll get
Two electricians look back on their first years in business: pricing too low, giving away free troubleshooting, discounting out of kindness, skipping a walkthrough at the end of a job, learning to quote options, writing down standards others can repeat and paying for leads without a plan. Their company sells coaching and an app to electrical contractors, so weigh the pitch, but the lessons on charging for diagnosis and asking how a job went apply to any trade.
