How to approach them
Courteous, amiable, accommodating, excellent listeners. Indirect, consensus-driven, avoid confrontation.
Listen more than you talk. Silence is not rejection — it means they are processing. Never pressure. Build consensus through multiple contacts. Indirect "no" means no.

How this is worked out: buying windows are derived from each competition's season, on the basis that budget for the next campaign is written at the end of one season and in the months immediately after it. They are a planning aid built from sector patterns, not a guarantee about any individual club. Fiscal years, ownership changes and a new sporting director can move any of it. Last reviewed .
