CHAPTER 14 · BOTH EDITIONS
What it really costs
Help someone compare the whole commitment. Include money, time, recurring charges, exclusions, and the conditions for cancellation or renewal.
Put it to work
- List the one-time price and every known recurring charge. Mark unknown figures for confirmation.
- Show optional purchases separately. Include implementation time, support limits, and relevant cancellation terms.
- Review the summary together. Never present an estimate as a guarantee or treat projected earnings as payment for the purchase.
