Sample 1: Email for Adjusted Prices
This sample is used in a situation where a supplier has offered a price that is higher than your budget. Note how the email skillfully requested better pricing.
Suggested Subject: Price Update
Hello, Logan Freeman,
Thank you very much for all of your efforts on the proposal you submitted. I appreciate the effort and knowledge it takes to put up a proposal of this caliber.
My colleagues and I went through the information you supplied us and were quite pleased with what we found out about you. We’re looking forward to putting your goods to work for us. Unfortunately, we have discovered that the amount you have given us for our project exceeds our budget.
As a result, to accept your proposal, we require a rate 3 percent lower than your initial offer to get at a final price of USD 12,000 for the product. If you are unable to meet this pricing, we will be forced to seek another supplier.
Please consider accepting this offer so that we may continue to do business with you in the future. Also, keep in mind that your willingness to be flexible on this topic may result in extra work for you and your organization.
I am hopeful that we will be able to reach an agreement.
Please let us know what you’ve decided on or before November 13th at the latest.
Best wishes,
Jamie McGregor,
CEO Kruger Brent.
