A service provider quotes $40,000 for six months ($6,666/month) but the prospect wants just one month for $10,000 due to cash flow concerns. They schedule a follow-up call to decide.

Hey man. So I was thinking back after a call yesterday and I think we're just going to run with one month instead of six for.
The retainer, you're saying?
Yeah.
Okay. Can I ask why?
You know, I don't think we're ready to commit for six months quite yet.
Okay. And when you say not ready to commit, what specifically feel makes you feel like you're not quite ready to commit?
Biggest thing is just being able to turn the results into basically paying for the retainer itself for.
Sure, I guess. Do you feel like the what we went over on our last call, the content we're going to create, do you feel like that can get you the results to get you guys to the goal you said you wanted to get to?
Yeah, you know, maybe just not that fast. Yeah, I think it's more so about the money. Is that a thanks?
Sure. Okay, so I know the six month package was 40k. So we can, we can definitely do one month. It's just going to be more. So the 40k for six month package would be like $6666 a month. If you wanted to do a one month, it would just be 10k since you're not committing to a long enough term. Does that make sense?
Yeah. Goes down the longer it gets.
Yep. Yeah. So the longer obviously the longer you go with the commitment with us, the lower the payment actually goes. Just because give our clients a little bit of a discount if they work.
With us over a longer term. Gotcha. Okay. Yeah, let me discuss with the team and I'll text you in the morning.
Okay, sounds good. Why don't we set up a time for maybe later tomorrow afternoon once you have a chance to talk with the team and then we can see if it's a fit from there.
Yep. Cool. Yeah. In the day. Anything beyond 4?
Yeah, I could do 5pm Eastern. I'll send you a calendar invite for that.
Perfect. Talk soon.
Cool.
