I am not aware of anyone selling just the manual ... nor can I imagine any manual taking the legwork out of quotes.
The outfits that do distribute manuals do it as part of an all-encompassing marketing program. That is ... you take their name, use their advertising, run your business their way - with the promise that their formula will make you lots of money. As such, they want their cut.
Is the money well spent? Perhaps it is. There are reasons some guys are able to charge five times as much, and still have the customers love them. When we are taught the trade, we are taught nothing about running a business - a different 'trade' alltogether.
