"Well, we did get two calls inquiring about our services, but they were both small gigs with hardly any profit, so I turned them down. Here's my thinking: last month's property management event was such a huge success, and we handed out a lot of business cards. That practically sets the standard and positioning for our studio right out of the gate. If we turn around and take on small, low-profit jobs that don't do anything for our reputation, wouldn't that just cheapen our brand? So I passed on those little gigs."
"Brother, in my opinion, having some work is always better than having no work at all. If anyone calls again, even if it's a small job that doesn't pay much, we should just take it and get it done. At least we'll earn some pocket money."
"No, no, no. Look at it this way: a small gig that pays one or two thousand yuan still takes three to five days of running around and hard work. But if we land a big project, even if it's the only one we work on all month, we'll still bring in tens of thousands. Just do the math on the cost-effectiveness. Besides, there's another thing—there are only two of us in this studio. If we take on a small gig and a big one comes along right after, we'd miss out."
