Tom Ashdown walked Dan and Emma Firth through the Starter proposal on 15 Feb 2024: £6,000 implementation and a £22,000 yearly subscription. Dan said he expects to proceed, subject to the board. An order form was promised.

What happened: Tom presented the Starter proposal to Dan Firth and Emma Firth. Pricing was £6,000 one-off implementation and a subscription of £22,000 a year, on a one-year term from go-live with thirty days to end it afterwards.

Customer view: Dan called it pretty straightforward and said he thinks they are going to do this. Emma tested the money and asked what happens if BB-Demo misses its dates.

Commercial: Tom promised 'live within' dates per connector in the order form and said the implementation fee comes down if they are missed. Dan also asked about adding users or connectors, which Tom pointed to as paid add-ons.

Watch: The board still has to approve. The call does not show whether the order form was sent or signed.

  1. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Dan, Emma, thanks for finding the time. I want to walk you through the proposal.
  2. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    Good. We've had a look. Pretty straightforward.
  3. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    Just want to confirm the financial bit.
  4. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Sure. So implementation is six thousand, one-off, covers connecting your systems, testing and training. The subscription is twenty-two thousand a year.
  5. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    So twenty-eight thousand in year one?
  6. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Right. Then it's just the twenty-two thousand each year after.
  7. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    And the term?
  8. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    One year from when you go live. After that, it's thirty days to end it if you want. No lock-in beyond year one.
  9. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    Who do we work with during setup?
  10. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Hamza, our implementation consultant. He'll be your main point of contact for four weeks. Once you're live, Marcus, your CSM, does quarterly check-ins.
  11. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    And the timeline, four weeks?
  12. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Four weeks from signing. You give us access to your systems, we connect them, test, train, and you're live. The order form will have 'live within' dates for each connector.
  13. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    What if you miss those dates?
  14. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Implementation fee comes down. But we don't miss them.
  15. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    What if we need to add more users or connectors down the line?
  16. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    We can add them as add-ons. You pay extra for those. Pricing is on the sheet.
  17. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    And if something goes wrong after you've gone live?
  18. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    You raise a ticket. Starter gets a four-business-hour response. And you've got quarterly check-ins with Marcus to make sure everything's working.
  19. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    Okay. What's the next step?
  20. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    You let me know you want to move forward, I'll send you an order form. That locks in the pricing, dates, and terms. You review it, get legal to look at it if you want, and once you sign, Hamza kicks off the work.
  21. Emma Firth
    Emma Firth None
    When do you need to know?
  22. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Sooner the better, but let's say by end of February. That way we can start in early March and have you live by early April.
  23. Dan Firth
    Dan Firth None
    We'll need to run it past our board, but I think we're going to do this.
  24. Tom Ashdown
    Tom Ashdown None
    Brilliant. I'll get the order form over to you early next week. Cheers, both.
