|

|
||||
IF CLIENT PUSHES BACK ON ANYTHING
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
Budget too high:
|
||||
- Remind them this is already discounted ($150/hr vs $175/hr standard)
|
||||
- Explain value: custom property system, managed hosting, ongoing support
|
||||
- If they truly can't afford it, this may not be the right project to take on
|
||||
|
||||
Timeline too long:
|
||||
- Be honest: you have commitments that must be completed first
|
||||
- Explain that 3-4 weeks lets them prepare content and materials
|
||||
- Emphasize quality over speed
|
||||
|
||||
Wants monthly hosting:
|
||||
- Explain administrative burden of 12 invoices vs 1
|
||||
- Total cost is identical
|
||||
- This is your standard practice
|
||||
|
||||
Any scope additions:
|
||||
- Use change order process: written approval, quote at $250/hour
|
||||
- Or defer to Phase 2 after launch
|
||||
- Protect the $6,000 fixed fee
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
YOUR POSITION
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
You have:
|
||||
- Professional contract based on proven templates
|
||||
- Fair pricing (discounted for startup)
|
||||
- Clear scope with proper boundaries
|
||||
- Realistic timeline
|
||||
- All standard legal protections
|
||||
|
||||
You should:
|
||||
- Be confident in the proposal
|
||||
- Be firm on price, timeline, and scope
|
||||
- Be helpful and professional
|
||||
- Be willing to walk away if not right fit
|
||||
|
||||
This is a good project if:
|
||||
- They accept terms as presented
|
||||
- They have realistic expectations
|
||||
- They can provide materials promptly
|
||||
- Long-term hosting relationship is likely
|
||||
|
||||
This is NOT a good project if:
|
||||
- They want major discounts or scope expansion
|
||||
- They can't accept timeline
|
||||
- They seem difficult or demanding
|
||||
- Risk outweighs reward
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
REMEMBER
|
||||
========
|
||||
|
||||
- This is a relationship business (Dayna connects you to Landproz too)
|
||||
- Good execution could lead to referrals
|
||||
- Hosting is where long-term value is ($600/year recurring)
|
||||
- Professional boundaries protect both parties
|
||||
- Clear scope prevents future problems
|
||||
- Written agreement is essential
|
||||
|
||||

||||
