Gesture & etiquette

Written email or in-person meeting. If in-person, sit upright, hold quote document with both hands at chest level. Speak with measured, non-pleading tone—dignified request, not begging. Have your reasoning prepared but lead with the ask, not justifications.

Polite price reduction request. 「誠に恐縮ですが」 acknowledges the imposition. 「再度ご検討いただく」 (reconsider) avoids direct '値下げ' (price-cut) which can sound pushy. Always provide reason: budget constraints, comparison with alternatives, long-term partnership angle. Allow them to save face by 'reconsidering' rather than 'cutting'.
