Is Having an Online Price Calculator a Good Idea?
« on: July 19, 2016, 11:37:16 am »


What do you think about having an online price calculator on a cleaning company website. We created a  Cleaning Price Calculator but not sure if it is a good idea.

Pros, it provides automated filtering for clients who just want their cleaning to be as cheap as possible. It could also work as a competitive advantage as most commercial cleaning companies don't have prices on their websites. Most office managers don't like to wait for a few days and interview several cleaners, they just want to know how much it will cost ASAP.

Cons, it might create confusing or misunderstanding when the final price quoted is not the same as the online estimate.

I find office cleaning automated quotes impossible to achieve. However, the correlation between the area of the office, frequency and the quoted price, can't be ignored and want to provide some indication about the price ranges to our potential clients.

What do you think about having an online price calculator (https://cleanservice.com.au/pricing)? Are you with or against and why?

Well, it depends on your company policy. If you have fixed prices and treat customers equally then it's always a good idea to have the calculator, because people can really save some time by inspect your prices quick and easy. However, the online calculator may get you into trouble, if the quote shown is not the end price to the client, so think twice and triple check it before going live.
