How much you came down from your initial price to sign a contract?

My initial quote was 2.2M USD and the final signed contract was around 1.4M USD.

We need to cut down on our margins drastically to win that project and removed some services from the lists.ย

That's a huge reduction. Any particular reasons on that high stuff? Or was competition aggressive enough?

That's a huge jump.

So big I'm shocked they weren't offended you didn't give them your best pricing up front?

We are in to staffing.... So we give 5% if client ask for it multiple times and without a discount he won't proceed (there are some people like that ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜œ)

Mostly we have 5-10% on bulk hiring... 10+ PO in one go
