Is my response too aggressive to a potential customer?

[QUOTE="7998, post: 16926584, member: 70541"] A customer is a customer, whether today or when they face reality. How long would it take you to have a face to face conversation and put together an actual conceptual estimate? I just did a R.O.M (Rough Order of Magnitude) for a 67,000 sqft 3 over 1 podium multi-family. It took me less than a day and that was an $18 million dollar project. Build the relationship, and they may decide to still spend the $100k but somewhere else. It's easy to tell them what they can't afford, tell them what they can afford and take their money. I understand the frustration, I'm in the business. But we're still at a point where people are spending money but have budgets to hit. Maybe they want the GT500 but settle for the Dark Horse.
