Customers might be more likely to accept your bid if you use an exact price.
They attempt to haggle you down another $500.
What would happen if you quoted them a price of $5,180?
I bet your client would be happier.
A specific number has greater meaning because it looks like you calculated your cost exactly.
$5,180 looks like an unrounded number with no padding.
It’s quirky for sure, and it’s no guarantee you’ll get the job.
If someone else quotes $5,000, the customer might go with the lowest bid.
