Based on my research - I have spoken with people in my extensive network - I would like you to consider revising the offer up by $x (or %) - at which point I would be happy to consider accepting it immediately

I typically research the range for the type of position to better understand if it is within market value. Additionally, I work on my own number I will accept that factors in 401k, healthcare, etc. in comparison to my current role and what makes sense for me personally to make the move. Be prepared to offer what number you would switch for, if they match, you need to be ready to accept.
