Sometimes people say, "I won't hold you to it, but give me a ballpark number." The truth is, they will hold you to any number you toss out. So be cautious. If you do give an estimate, make sure you can live with it if they won't negotiate.

Dear Carissa,
Here are a few thoughts for your outplacement services:
- We offer a basic online career transition program for $349. I've included a detailed description. This option does not include consulting.
- A two-day job search workshop, including resume is $1500/person.
- Other programs are priced on the accompanying fee schedule.
Let's discuss this to see what will work for you given your budget constraints. Carissa, I'm busy all morning, but if you have questions, please call my cell number which is 303-521-0235. I'll return your call on my next break.
If we don't talk in the morning, I'll call you at 1:00 to answer questions.
Best wishes,
William S. Frank
