FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Customers should know the following about my pricing: 1. Transparent Pricing Structure: I provide a clear breakdown of costs, including any hourly rates, flat fees, or variable costs based on the scope of work. 2. Initial Consultation: I may offer a free or low-cost initial consultation to discuss the project and provide an estimate. 3. Discounts and Promotions: I occasionally offer discounts for first-time customers, referrals, or larger projects, so it’s worth asking about any current promotions. 4. Additional Fees: Customers should be aware of any potential extra charges, such as travel fees, materials, or special requests that may not be included in the initial quote. 5. Payment Terms: I outline my payment terms, including deposit requirements, payment methods accepted, and the timeline for final payment upon project completion. 6. Change Orders: If the scope of work changes during the project, I will discuss any additional costs that may arise and seek approval before proceeding. 7. Refund and Cancellation Policies: I clarify my policies regarding refunds or cancellations to ensure customers understand their options. Being upfront about pricing helps build trust and ensures that customers are fully informed before committing to a project.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new customer, my process is focused on understanding their unique needs and providing a seamless moving experience: 1. Initial Consultation: I start with a detailed conversation to learn about the scope of their move, specific items, special requirements, and any particular concerns they may have. This helps me customize our approach and provide an accurate estimate. 2. Quote and Scheduling: Once I have a clear understanding, I offer a transparent quote and discuss scheduling options that work best for them. 3. Preparation: Leading up to the move, I provide tips and guidance for packing if they’re handling it themselves. If they’ve opted for packing services, I ensure my team is prepared with materials and knows exactly what to expect. 4. Moving Day: My team and I handle everything with care and efficiency, from loading items securely to double-checking that each item is accounted for. We communicate throughout to keep the customer updated on our progress. 5. Unloading and Setup: At the new location, we unload and arrange items as directed, making sure the customer is satisfied before we leave. 6. Follow-Up: After the move, I reach out to ensure everything went smoothly and address any final questions or needs they might have. This process ensures customers feel confident, informed, and supported throughout their move..
