🎚️ Control Who Can Discount What

Turn the way you already price work into an app that sends, chases, and closes quotes on its own. These prompts build the whole estimate loop: a price book you control, a builder that does the arithmetic, a link the customer accepts with one tap, and the follow-up that happens whether or not you remember.

Control Who Can Discount What

Copy

My team discounts to win work and I only find out when the numbers come in. Build me a discount control app. Keep a matrix project where each row sets the maximum discount a given role may apply to a given product or service group without approval, plus who approves anything deeper. When a quote is built, show the margin updating live as a discount is applied, and require a reason to be recorded on every discount however small. Anything past the ceiling goes into an approval queue with the quote, the requested discount, the resulting margin and the stated reason. Add an AI agent that, when someone asks for a deep discount, suggests what could be removed from the scope instead so the price falls without the margin collapsing. Automate an escalation if a discount approval sits unanswered for a day, and a scheduled monthly report of total discount given by person and by product. Three logins: a rep who requests, a manager who approves, and an owner who sets the matrix.

Discounting is the fastest way to give away a year of margin quietly. This makes the limits explicit and everything past them visible.

What's Included

  • A discount ceiling per role so juniors are protected rather than policed.
  • A reason required on every discount, however small.
  • Margin shown live as the discount is applied, not after the fact.
  • An assistant that suggests what to remove from scope instead of cutting price.

How To Use

  1. Set ceilings by role and by product, since some lines carry no room at all.
  2. Require a reason every time. The reasons are the report.
  3. Show the margin as it moves. People discount less when they can see it.
  4. Review the pattern quarterly. Persistent discounting is a pricing problem.

Enforce it through estimate approval, and watch the effect in the margin guard.
