We don't engage with a Customer under any circumstances w/o an executed written contract. The assumptions, expectations, requirements, and exclusions need to be out in the open at the beginning of the relationship. Nothing good has ever come from "Well, I just assumed..." and "I thought you said..."

Marco's comment interests me a bit. I wonder what he's talking about re: "if there's an 'easy' 30 out." I'd love to hear some elaboration on what that means.

I think the comment was more related to the 'value' of the agreement related to recurring revenue? What's the value of the agreement / practice if there's an 'easy' 30 out.
