Close the next step

Close paths
for intake, audit, proposal, and retainer.

A good close does not pressure the prospect into confusion. It names the exact next step, what happens after it, and what is needed to move forward.

Script

Soft next-step close

The cleanest next step is not a full commitment today. It is intake. We collect the business details, confirm the package, and make sure the scope fits before any serious work begins. Should I send the intake link?
Script

Audit review close

I can show you the leaks in order and what I would fix first. If the first move makes sense, we can turn that into a package. If not, you still get clarity on what is costing attention or leads. Does [DAY/TIME] work for a quick review?
Script

Package close

Based on what you told me, I would start with [PACKAGE]. It covers [DELIVERABLES] and avoids paying for a bigger lane before the first leak is controlled. Do you want to start with that package?
Script

Retainer close

This is bigger than a one-time site change. You need someone operating the web presence, reviews, follow-up, reporting, and campaign lane every month. That is the reason I would recommend [RETAINER]. It gives you one accountable operator instead of scattered vendors.
Script

Scope-control close

I can do that, but it is outside the standard lane. We can either keep the first package tight and add this later, or quote the larger build now. Which direction do you prefer?
Script

Payment close

To start, we need the approved package, the first invoice, and access to the items listed in the intake. Once those are in, the work moves into the fulfillment queue.
