Are bids from home improvement contractors typically negotiable?

Sure, I realize *everything* is negotiable, and the only way to find out is to ask. But I’m wondering if people actually do it often.
The purchase price of a home is expected to be negotiable. So is the purchase price of a car. So is the salary on a new job. Do home improvement bids from contractors fall into this category? Or even close?

How can I convince people to get a free estimate on home improvement? Help?

I just got a job canvassing neighborhoods getting “leads” from people who agree to get a free estimate on their home improvement. Since part of my pay is by commission, I need to get as many people to get this free estimate as possible.

What things should i say to convince them to do it? What would convince you if someone came to your door? Thanks.
