If they’re special, the price is special

“Can you just…”
“We’re not like your other clients…”
“This is a unique situation…”

Special is usually code for: please let me skip the process.

If you say yes, you’re not doing a favor.
You’re creating a custom workflow you’ll resent later.

Here’s the shift: if they’re different, or they want different, the price is different.

The line: “Our process is the same for everyone. If you need a different level of support, here are the upgrade options.”

Make your systems do the work: define what special support looks like and attach it to a tier or a fee.

When you hear “special,” and you think “snowflake,” translate it to “custom workflow.” Then respond with the structure that provides your client what their asking for in a way that works for your firm.
