Understand the Ask
RANDOM LINGO
Legacy Clients
(1). A company’s first clients that help them get to the point of notification that they no longer service clients of their size.
“Oh god, Bill from Fountains! Fountains! Fountains! is still on board? I thought we got rid of all of those legacy clients after the merger? Ok, let’s just send him an email from Ted’s outlook saying that we can no longer service his needs. Ted? He won’t care, he’s a team player!”
Kick-Off
(1). n. Football-inspired term often used to describe the first presentation of a new product or service offering, intended to provide employees with a feeling of excitement.
(2). v. To voluntarily start a conference call, mainly in an effort to look important and/or in charge.
“Does anyone know the date of the kick-off meeting? Does anyone know the name of the client?”
