Tony Soprano's Corner Office — Ep. 2: "The Vig Doesn't Shrink"

Tony Soprano reads three of this week's most aggravating B2B emails — a mid-deal price squeeze, textbook scope creep, and a veiled churn threat — and delivers mob-boss verdicts from his Bada Bing booth.

Tony Soprano is back in his Bada Bing booth, and this week the emails are getting personal.
Three of the most irritating B2B situations hit his desk — a mid-deal price squeeze, textbook scope creep, and a veiled churn threat — and Tony breaks each one down with mob-boss clarity.

This Week's Docket

Email #1 — The Price Squeeze Derek at Meridian Capital wants 20% off. Mid-deal. After signing. Tony's verdict: "The vig doesn't shrink 'cause you're feeling light."
Email #2 — The Scope Creep Lisa at Orion Dynamics wants extras thrown in — "while you're already in there." Tony's verdict: "You give an inch, they move into your house."
Email #3 — The Veiled Threat Marcus at Vanguard is "re-evaluating vendor relationships." Tony's verdict: "That's a threat wrapped in a memo. You answer a threat like a threat."

Every week, Tony Soprano takes the most aggravating B2B emails and tells you exactly what they mean — and what to do about it.
