Flat Rate Pricing Beware

AskBoyd Supports and Appreciates ProTech author John Rocheleau and his view on “Flat Rate” pricing

Recently I was reading blogs related to homeowner heating and air repair issues and ran across a really cool website called PROTECH HVAC. The author John Rocheleau wrote an extremely to the point article about “Flat Rate” pricing in the plumbing industry. John’s article cuts right through the subject and fillets it so that we can see right through this practice that more and more plumbing and HVAC contractors are adopting, a business practice that is designed to separate you from as much of your hard earned money as possible during a crisis event in your life.

I have been intending to write an article related to “Flat Rate” pricing in the HVAC industry, but after reading John’s article, I have very little to add and thought that AskBoyd should give credit to such poignant writing and just direct you to an expert in the field who has a solid understanding of this practice and recognizes that homeowners need to be aware of how this growing business practice works.

Below is a reprint of John’s article. Please make sure and visit John’s blog.
