> If it's a pricing impasse, are you sure you know their budget and fiscal generals? They asked me to put together a pricing proposal prior to sharing ANY data on their budget, revenue, audience size, or anything. I scoured public records and interviews to get the data I could, and then put together a proposal that offered several tracks, to allow them to self-select into the tier that felt best for them. But we often get folks asking for pricing without telling us about usage levels, budget, size, or anything.

To me that's a red flag, as quite often this is somebody with a mandate to collect competitive proposals after an internal decision / vendor choice has already been made. This is extremely common, unfortunately...
