“Act as an experienced small business purchasing advisor for a plumbing company. I'm meeting with a plumbing parts supplier tomorrow to discuss pricing, terms, and possibly setting up a new account or improving my current deal. Create a detailed preparation checklist for me that includes: key questions I should ask about pricing and discounts, important terms to negotiate (like payment terms, return policies, delivery schedules), what information I should bring or have ready, red flags to watch for, and a comparison framework so I can evaluate this supplier against others. Make it practical and easy to follow during the actual meeting.”
