A lot of times, they’ve received something via email from us that discusses pricing, and they want to talk about it first.

You REALLY have to know your competition in cases like this. Even and especially those that don’t stack up as well do you can poke holes in their solution and twist the knife.

If you can’t show value quickly you’re gonna lose a lot of people. This example you gave says you need to shift your approach.
