“Act as a negotiation coach helping tradespeople handle pricing discussions. I'm an electrician about to have a conversation with a client who thinks my quote is too high. Here's the situation: [describe the job briefly, your quoted price, and what the client said]. Help me prepare by creating: 1) Three clear reasons that justify my pricing in simple terms the client will understand, 2) Two common objections they might raise and calm, professional responses to each, 3) One compromise option I could offer if needed without losing money or looking desperate. Keep the tone respectful but confident.”
