Recently, I've done the same thing to a few prospects. I offer a free 30-minute intro consultation, partly used for me to gauge if it's going to be a good fit. I'm constantly shocked by how many prospects seem to want everything for nothing, or come up with every excuse in the book about why they don't want to act on making more money. This probably explains why most small businesses fail - lack of drive, extreme tightwaddedness, and an inability to take things to the next level. Given this, I done what you just did - fire the prospect before they start wasting your time and money. You’re spot on! Recently, I’ve done the same thing to a few prospects.
