Even if the artisan is coming from Ibadan I’ll still give a token. Even if the artisan never came to site but consulted over the phone.

The reason I do it is for my own conscience in case I do not give that artisan the job.

I had a. Architect that came to one of my sites in Omi Adio. He worked for my builder to do Layout and pegging. He asked to see my building plan. A few days later he sent me an updated plan that was better. Eventhough I didn’t ask him to do the job I knew it’ll have taken his time so I asked for his account number.

1) Ten quotes? That’s too much. 3 is enough.

2) I’ll never ask anyone to come give a quote if they weren’t potential contractors.

3) My background just dictates that I reward artisans.

4) I’ll never ask anyone to do long travel and I’ll rather they stop by if they’re in town.

Ire o.

You have spoken well sir. God bless you.

You and Erico submission fully captured my thought..This issue has been discussed here more than twice .. I have worked as an asst Facility mgr with a monthly budget of #60M and no one would approved a Kobo for anyone, whether you're Julius berger or baba lati to come and check a job and get paid transport...it's a form of 419 if you present such. 99% of guys here does B2C. But, from my pocket, I do give tips to workmen when I call them for an emergency work or sometime to quickly check and submit a quote and that is because getting those things done affect my KPI..The truth is, it's an individual thing. Not a rule of thumb..But the biz guys here should calm down, you are the one that wants to get a job and earned , you are the one that needs to be humble...those of us bringing the job here will also be humble when we get to where we make that money we bring here..Abi nau, I go humble for my oga for 30 days collect salary, I go come humble for you too because I want to pay you to to supply wood or paint, no nau, you sef reason am.I can give someone else...imagine if everyone gives someone else and not you, na you go humble last .. Well, I thinks it's a faceless forum tho, most of you don't act like this in REAL LIFE, atleast the ones have met

No, you don't give money before the service but afterwards. If the artisan insists then you can look for another.

It's not mandatory but choice.
Humanity!

I remember when we lobbied for construction of students hall in MOUAU . After all the logistics, typing & printing, one or two visitations, we didn't get the job and nobody was expecting refund. It's all part of the risk factors but in a situation where l client can make consideration, it's not out of place to do so if you want. The good news is, one of the person whom we visited was the one who referred us to the politician that wok the bid.

I am sure many here had got into this trap B4, it would be you ringing, calling etc for days on end, and cos you have committed you get hooked on waiting so you do not lose out until the reality hits you. My own Idea will be to factor all logistics into my final proposal .

HDF doors are okay for rooms. But for bathroom, I'll advise you use aluminum door.

Well said , like the being humble part

Not a one size fits all situation . The truth is that in the b2c space some businesses are well established with good reputation and patronage hence can introduce conditions such as asking for transport etc , others are more desperate for customers . As long as both parties agree , don’t see the big deal , no be by force to deal nah . Not all business/transaction is for you

All this discussion does not happen in the b2b space , can’t even begin to articulate costs i have incurred in this space without closing

There is an element of risk in all business

As for the bolded

When my company lost a long running contract....

A contract that I was so sure of (revenue which I banked on)

A contract that gave my company the majority of its revenue

The work that I had to do to fill that void

The time it took to go back to that level of revenue and exceed it that I realized that any money that comes my way is a favor and not as of right.

It does not matter how skilled your are, there are others similarly skilled if not even more skilled.

That anyone who plays a role in making me earn money should receive VIP treatment.

Also, once you have a name and reputation, you can set rules that no new entrant can set

When you are starting out, your clients will set rules for you
