Whilst I run a lighting business in Australia I expect my problem may be international, and it is that students have a project to price a theoretical production and so they contact us to quote on this "show".
Now it can be very time consuming to put together a quote and maybe checking to sub-hire some gear and check availability of equipment.
I actually don't mind giving some general assistance, you may be a real customer one day, but let the business know that, then we can do a quick quote to do your assignment without wasting a lot of time.
Incidentally, very often we can pick these inquiries because some details don't add up and we can actually help.
