๐Ÿฅถ Must be a cold day in hell

I just had a prospect that went dark several months ago call me with an "urgent need to make a decision on the items we discussed a few months back, can you get me updated pricing? I need to make a move by end of month."


If this goes, I'll have pennies to sell to get off my PIP. If it doesn't there still a chance but a low one. Either way... just feels amazing to end my Friday this way and had to celebrate this small positive update with the Savages!

I hope this prospect knows they are getting a nice 25% markup for being an asshole and waiting until now

This one might hit a little to close to home considering the PIP situation...

If heโ€™s making a decision, whoโ€™s the competition? Do you have a way to find out and make sure youโ€™re in the top spot?

It seems as if itโ€™s me or *no change*โ€ฆ the hardest damn competitor out there.

Well, I'm sure you know to press on the cost of not making a change, so I won't state the obvious.ย  ย Deciding not to decide is still a choice.ย  (I just channeled Rush there a bit)ย  Good luck!

Get it signed and let the good mojo carry over to the next one and close that with the confidence of the last.

Nice close the deal and push it above your pip! If theyโ€™re desperate and you can get some extra value added for them, clear your hurdle!

I wishโ€ฆ Iโ€™m in desperate enough need for the deal that Iโ€™m going to magically keep pricing the same after I make him sweat it out over the weekend.

Sounds like they need to beat up the competition. Providing pricing now seems like a tough spot to be in.

Nope, totally normal for the industry I'm in. Things can change monthly.ย

I've become a bit of a skeptic in my old age.ย  I feel it protects me from things that can bite me in the ass when I'm not looking.ย  I don't know the deal, the customer or the competition.ย  Sounds like you've got it covered, though so that's good.ย  Hope you win this one.

Why do you need to update pricing? And congrats, ask why they went dark and how can you wrap this up snd get them into implementation?

Lol, Iโ€™m asking the questions here. Im doing discovery with you to better provide a soltuion that fits your needs. So again, why would you need to update pricing if nothings changed, or whats changed that has you having to update pricing? Our quotes and propsals we create have a length of time they are vialble for, unless something changes. Then its start all over..
