One thing my company does with new clients is to either quote really tight or even at a minor loss to create repeat business. You recoupe it in the long term, but only if its a client who you know will be looking for a contract, not the obvious1 off jobs. Purely because of the competition in the market we have to stay competitive because its as simple as a phone call to another electrical mob to get another quote. Its not a specialist industry.
