Negotiating with Clay

Negotiation Tips

To effectively negotiate a renewal with resulting uplift percentages, anchor your budget requirements significantly below proposed increases. Use your company's underutilization of the service as a valid point of leverage against unexpected or excessive uplifts in your contract negotiations.
Discuss overage fees proactively during the renewal conversation. Identify if such fees are accurate or fair considering your previous usage patterns. Reference your original contract to assess the terms related to overage fees and argue for their waiver, especially if growth in the usage of Clay is anticipated.
Insist on the elimination of automatic renewal clauses in your agreement. This move will help maintain your negotiation leverage for future conversations and gives your organization the flexibility to assess needs and explore other options as required.
Leverage your usage growth by emphasizing the economies of scale. Communicate that an increase in users should come with lower rates - propose a discount for volume ordering or growth in usage. Highlight that pricing adjustments are essential as more users will be introduced to the Clay platform.
