@Nic If they would, I would take it.

@Nic Do you guys have live chat? Talking on the phone is sooooooo last year.
-
@Aaron-Studer doesn't look like it, sorry
They probably wouldn't have a sales convo that way anyway (nor would anyone, since they'd probably not want to put negotiations down in writing). -
@nic @aaron-studer you guys can live chat right here!
-
@scottalanmiller My guess is that @nic can't do pricing
-
@richard probably can.

I know a lot of companies try to be like that, but I can tell you if I purchased a package I would never hesitate to post the pricing. If you are going to have flexible pricing, you need to man up and accept that people will tell people about it. Not having negotiations in writing is silly as you will have to invoice me. I will have it in writing in the end.

@JaredBusch I agree, and we do have open pricing on our website. But there is also an opportunity for deals and discounts, depending on the size and strategic importance of the deal. So if you're in a position to negotiate for a better deal there is that opportunity, but that is usually predicated on not disclosing the terms. By the time the negotiations reach the "in writing" stage there are usually clauses about not disclosing the info. Similar to negotiating for salary - do you go out and tell the whole world how much you make?

I do not exactly hide it, no. In fact I started a thread on it on that other site.

Employees are often forced to reveal what they make. It's often enough that any modesty around that tends to wear off.

If anyone is curious after all of this, my hourly salary, prior to paying taxes, insurance, etc. happens to be The Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything

Well, you might reveal it to a recruiter, but you don't discuss it at cocktail parties or with coworkers (for the most part). Anyway, not defending the practice, just acknowledging that's the way the world works

In banking you'd be surprised. What else is there for cocktail parties?
