====== Making Offers ======

If a customer wants to return a product, you should make them an offer to keep it. This can save them the hassle and expense of shipping.

First offer = **$49.95**

Second offer = **$19.95**

===== Talk Tracks: =====

//Let me check with my team to see what I can do for you.//
Followed by brief hold.

//As part of a special promotion, I can offer you 50% off to keep the existing product. That is only $49.95 and you will not receive any further orders.//

---

//I spoke with my supervisor and am authorized to give you an 80% off discount. This is below our cost and is a one time only offer. Would you like to keep the product for only $19.95?//

Look at the **Transactions** tab in the CRM to see if the customer has been successfully billed for the item.
