Vendor Client Relationship


I feel this applies to Contractor Client Relationships as well as the Vendor Client Relationship.

I almost posted this in off-topic, but I feel this is actually on-topic

Re: Vendor Client Relationship


that is spot on. Had to go through something like that today.ordering and picking out windows and doors on a extension to a house we are doing.the clients started asking about the most expensive windows even thou in the contact they were to get budget ones as thats what they wanted.

so the the sales rep told they the expensive windows are 45% more they start saying to me that i could cover the cost as i was making more than enough profit and i wouldnt feel the extra 1,200 euros coming out of my profit/pocket.

Anyway told they no way am i covering the cost they said the cheaper windows werent that nice but couldnt afford the expensive windows.

i hate cheap clients.
