The first request ends in vain

Yesterday, I brought the standard template that I spent about a week translating into Japanese to the client.

The last time we met, I understood exactly what kind of site they were looking for, so I offered them the price ($€) of overseas Joomla templates and extensions for use with Alaudae.JP.
When I told them that these needed to be updated every year, they were surprised.

I guess so.
However, I just told them the expenses I spend each year running the site myself.
If you want a site that continues to evolve, I think this is the minimum necessary expense.

However, I was quite surprised and felt that the meaning was different, so I checked again to see what kind of site I was looking for, and it turned out to be a several-page site that I often get sales calls from asking, "Would you like to create a homepage?"
Last time, I told Alaudae.JP that it would be difficult to do something like a "several page site," but that it would be faster to hire a professional. However, it seems that all web construction companies are creating similar designs using the same products, so I thought about asking Alaudae.JP for the time being, created a demo template like the others, and proceeded with the discussion from there. pattern...

At Alaudae.JP, we do not create or create other people's ideas at all, and if we were to accept this request, there would only be disadvantages such as having to learn a new way to build a different web. It is clear that Alaudae.JP will be able to build a better website than Alaudae.JP, so I explained this to them and declined the offer.

To be honest, if they had checked the content of Alaudae.JP's website at least once, they would not have received a request like this. However, I was reminded once again that generally speaking, "homepages and web construction" are viewed as the same everywhere.

If you call yourself a web designer, you might be able to build any website, but Alaudae.JP is not a web designer, he just has the knowledge to build websites with Joomla!

”Using that knowledge, we will match your request plan, set up extensions and templates in advance with standard settings, and prepare a website that you can operate and manage.”

You can't do anything else. That's why we don't do any sales or pushy sales.
However, from now on, we will only respond to requests from those who have checked and understood the content of Alaudae.JP's website.

I ended it by misunderstanding, but I think experiences like this are important...
