Dawg, I agree, but Peter's site price to be build is not in most people's budget. His site is awesome, but can you / I spend several thousand dollars to have a site?
True that....but...I think the same things can be communicated even if it's not all fancy shmancy like his. Content is key and I think it's possible to connect with the client emotionally even if you can't spend thousands of dollars.
Why would you want to stop price shoppers instead of selling price shoppers? You wont talk them all in to it but if you could get 10% over to your side it would be worth it
Makes sense for sure, but I book at "X" $.... and I have had people ask to pay less than half that, and one wanted to pay just a 1/3rd of that.... I would rather they not call at all.

OTOH, Bob Saget ( a Philly area native ) once came in and I was his salesman. He bought 7 of the most expensive camcorders we sold, with 5 year warranties, and never asked for a dime off the price..... I made $600 off that sale!
High speed internet is only for people with money. ha ha ha!
Having a site that people without high speed internet can't access will eliminate price shoppers....... ha ha ha
