Quotes:

“The problem is that, you know, sales service providers, they want time and materials cuz they’re not a hundred percent sure what’s going on, what they’re gonna meet when they get in there and start working on it. The business objectives are not crystal clear, so they could lose money on a fixed fee.” (03:47)

“When you can deeply listen and you can make the message that you are trying to convey attractive to the listener, you’re more likely to reach an agreement.” (07:42)

“We need to build the contract right in the first place. And if you are the receiving end of someone else’s contract, then you really do have to get an expert in that industry to be able to read it and review it and issue spot.” (13:07)
