Good opening
Higher means now is a good time to open the conversation. Lower means the timing is off.
This reads what you tell me, not the customer directly. Specific inputs get specific scores.
WHAT I SAW IN YOUR NOTES
Expansion signals, these open the door:
No obvious caution signals. Timing looks clean.
THE SITUATION
Sixteen months in, a machining center running three shifts on aerospace work is past the break-in pain and into the groove where the next bottleneck usually shows up: tooling life, fixturing gaps, or a second spindle. The timing is right. The question is where their pressure is sitting right now.
OPENER
“Been meaning to check in. Sixteen months on the Mazak, three shifts, aerospace mix -- where is the friction sitting these days? Tooling, fixturing, or something else entirely?”
BACKUP ANGLE
“You mentioned the machine was solving throughput on tight-tolerance parts. Have the cycle times held, or are you still chasing seconds?”
Two minutes. Specific to what they bought. Free.
