<title>OnlyOnce : When Good Companies Go Bad</title>
<link>http://www.onlyonceblog.com/2007/12/when-good-compa#IDComment59545</link>
<description>Matt, I totally agree.  When the legal/procurement department has more power than the business user, I generally end up walking away from a deal... not because I don&amp;#039;t want to help that company with our services, but because we honestly just don&amp;#039;t charge enough money to pay for all of the time and effort that goes into working through those issues.  If we have to have more than two calls with a legal department, we just walk away.  It&amp;#039;s hard to do (especially for our sales team) but in the end, it&amp;#039;s always saved us from having to bend to rules and policies that just don&amp;#039;t make sense for us to bend to... and I firmly believe we end up better off without that client in the long term.  Great post. </description>
