Respond to a discount request without caving
Use when a prospect asks for a discount, to protect margin while giving them a sense of winning.
Script a response to a discount request.
Product and price: {{product}} at {{price}}.
Discount they asked for: {{discount_asked}}.
Things I could trade instead of cutting price (longer term, case study, faster start): {{trade_options}}.
The response should:
- Acknowledge the request without an instant yes or no.
- Ask why the price needs to move (budget, comparison, approval).
- Offer a value-trade alternative before any price concession.
- If I must concede, attach a condition so the discount feels earned, not free.
Output: the verbal script, plus an email version, plus one line for holding firm if they push again.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{product}}
- {{price}}
- {{discount_asked}}
- {{trade_options}}
