Definitely....
When I was estimating driveways, Harry Home Owner was much more impressed when I would tell him it would take FIFTY THOUSAND pounds of asphalt to do the job-of course 25 tons is also impressive but tons is Greek to them while they look at the 20 pound bag of dog food.
Would also come up with a price like 2348 dollars...you can then give an auto discount or give the impression that you have taken every last penny out that you were able to.
Same as baseball, I tell them to think singles, the rest will fall in AND when a ground ball hit in your direction, dive for it.
Once in a while you will get lucky and stop something but it ALWAYS looks like you are giving 125%..
Appearance is everything....HA HA
Ok, since I am trying to decide between concrete and asphalt (PNW location but on the dry side of mountains), which should it be? TIA
