PLAYBOOK TEMPLATES
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
An MOU establishes the foundational understanding between parties prior to definitive agreements. This playbook reviews negotiation of commitments, timelines, and governance structures.
Payment & Pricing
Negotiation strategy
Negotiate for a payment schedule that aligns with your cash flow needs and includes clear milestones. Ensure that any pricing adjustments are capped and require mutual agreement.
