Treat your potential customers as shit, then.



If they're shit potential customers then yes that's exactly the point.

As you might have read in other comments, the point of the form is to create a filtering mechanism to sift out the shit.


Here's how we filter out shit customers at my company: We publish our god damned prices clearly.


What companies post the pricing of b2b? Does Apple? Intel? Any major tech company? No, they have salespeople that handle b2b.


Do you think for example Intel gets contacted by "shit customers"? If a business is communicating clearly that they only offer very expensive solutions to very big customers, they're not going to be contacted by small fry.
