This week's question:
Does your company base job pricing on your knowledge (or assumption) of the conditions of the customer’s files?

a) Our price estimates do reflect our assumptions on how easy or hard the customer’s files are to work with. A customer who is known to give us poorly produced files will pay more than a customer who has a history of giving us print ready files.
b) For better or worse, we don’t take into consideration the condition of customer’s files in our estimates.
c) I don’t know.
