Our professional advice…
Stop paying more to these national companies! Avoid the waste, fraud and abuse by going with a local company. Even if it’s not us!
Waste: Stop overpaying to cover all the bloated salaries from their corporate staff. Wasteful HR staff, regional management, etc etc. It’s all pork that the customer pays for.
Fraud: National companies pay high commissions to sales professionals who care about one thing, you spending more! Often times these sales professionals are under intense pressure to meet sales quotas sometimes forcing them to sell something the customer doesn’t need!
Abuse: National companies have strict profit margins they must maintain. Most companies will purchase material needed for the job (piping, fixtures etc) and mark it up 3 times to maintain their “margins”. For example the materials needed for a new water service line may cost $500 but they will charge the customer $1500 profiting off of the material. It’s an abusive practice!
