EMAIL DETAILS

OK - just talking to them now and he agreed. Said he realized we hadn't discussed and it is standard but he understood and agreed pretty easily. Clear that is was a "let me leave it in and see if they say anything". Really probably should have pushed back on the retainer and said we should do $7500 for six months, but we'll know pretty quickly if this is going to be economically worth it to us and we'll either be making money selling this stuff six months from now or we are going to decide it is not worth it.

I kind of feel like we have come down in price so much we should get the retainer (it is only $60K) without having it credited towards commissions. (We'd need to sell $1 million of product before we see commissions). Talking to them in 10 minutes. Thoughts? Am I being greedy?
