We often get calls from potential customers about wanting a quote over the phone for custom sign work. If we could give a quote over the phone for how much custom sign work would cost, we would. Unfortunately, it is not that simple. In this blog, we will explain why we wait to give out prices and why we do not give quotes over the phone.
1. Every Piece Is Custom Made
When it comes to our custom work, every piece is “custom”. This means that without exact details, sizes and images, providing a price over the the phone is difficult. While there are some industries that are able to give people quotes over the phone, sign companies usually do not.
2. We Want To Be As Accurate As Possible
We wish we had the ability to predict the future but we don’t. After many years in the sign industry, some projects require more material than we originally planned. With that said, we do not want to tell you a price over the phone, only for that price to be inaccurate once we get going on the project. Once we know the materials involved and the project moves along, we will have a better, more accurate grasp on pricing.
3. All of Our Projects Are Unique
Each and every one of our projects is unique, so prices for custom work usually vary. Even for similar projects, no two projects are identical.
Conclusion
While we understand why we get calls for quotes over the phone, it just is not realistic for us to provide a quote that quickly. Getting a quote over the phone for something sounds simple in theory, but if you are familiar with the sign industry, it unfortunately does not work that way. We always want to do what is in the best interest for our customers and clients and we believe avoiding quotes over the phones helps us do this.
