This is just a heads up for anyone who has been thinking about coming on board with CQC. As you might know, we've always been in something of a bind wrt to pro installers. They don't like that we sell a DIY version which is effectively the same product, for a much lower price. They don't want their customers seeing that and having to get into an argument about why their customers are paying more.
So, we are going to finally reconcile the two pricing schemes in the next version, 3.2. Though we are taking a significant hit on the pro price in order to try to keep the price reasonable, inevitably it's going to mean an increase in the cost of the DIY version. But, it means that we'll be able to openly sell to DIYers and that our integrators can work with DIYers if they want as well, since there's no longer any pricing disparity. So, it'll just be a more comfortable scenario all around, other than the fact that the DIY price has got to go up.
So, anyway, if you have been toying with the idea, this is just a courtesy heads up about what is going to happen, since you may want to do it now and get in before the change occurs. If so, just contact us at support at charmedquark.com.
