Why can't companies post their pricing on their website ?
(baseanalytics.com.au)
It's not that they can't. They don't because you're forced to engage with them and it gives them an opportunity to get a salesperson to give you the whole sales pitch and possibly upsell in the process.
this is exactly why i dont engage in companies that dont post their prices.
If only that were always an option
This is exactly it. And any salesman worth their salt will lead with a question about your budget or how much you'd like to spend so they can know how much they can gouge you
That's what I thought
It's usually wholesale. I run a retail store with prices. And hide wholesale prices on the other store as these prises are reserved for logged in retailers. Some retailers have different wholesale prices to other retailers so it's good to keep prices hidden
Once they have contact info, they can bug you about it every once in a while.
You can also vary the pricing (sketchily) between different potential customers.
I assumed manufacturer agreements but I don't know shit from shit.
