Sales Rep
So, after reviewing everything, are you ready to move forward with the contract?
Client
Honestly, we're still a bit hesitant about the delivery timeline you proposed.
Sales Rep
I figured that might come up, so I brought a revised schedule with me.
Client
Oh, that's great, because two weeks felt way too tight for our team.
Sales Rep
We can extend it to four weeks without changing the overall price at all.
Client
That actually solves most of our concerns, but what about the payment terms?
Sales Rep
We're flexible there too, so we could split it into three installments instead.
Client
Wait, really? That would definitely make things easier for our finance department.
Sales Rep
Exactly, and it shows we're committed to building a long-term partnership here.
Client
I appreciate that, it really changes how comfortable I feel signing today.
Sales Rep
Perfect, I'll email over the updated contract for your legal team to review.
Client
Sounds good, and if everything checks out, we should sign by Friday.
Sales Rep
That works perfectly for us, since our production schedule opens up next Monday.
Client
Great, let's shake on it then, this partnership sounds like a win-win.
