Abstract/Contents: | States that "there's nothing wrong with turning a quick [dollar], as long as [the] client is happy with the service [provided] for what he considers the right price." Suggests that "the real challenge in bidding is to know just how much revenue...can [be squeezed] out of a project to cover [the] costs and make a profit while not sacrificing the service [provided]." Concludes that "identifying...costs, setting [the] price to make a fair profit and making [the] client happy with [the] service separates [one] from the low-ballers in for the short-term." |
