As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Joost Verbeek did not sign the Growth order form by the 16 Dec 2025 target. He wants the connector go-live timeline in writing before it goes to legal. Tom Ashdown promised the sequence the next day.
Ask: Joost wants written dates for the HubSpot, Zendesk and accounting connectors going live after signature. He will not send the order form to legal without them.
Customer view: He accepts the clause exists but wants engineering dates behind it. The thread shows no objection to price or tier.
Next: Tom committed to send the sequence after checking with Elena Novak and the engineers. The thread does not show whether it was sent or whether the form was signed.

- Tom Ashdown 12 Dec 2025 08:10Hi Joost, Hope your week's gone alright. Order form for the Growth tier is attached for signature. The total deal value on it is £57,000, which includes the one-off implementation fee, so it's worth reading the schedule rather than taking that as the annual figure. We pencilled in Tuesday 16 Dec 2025 as the target to get it signed, so if you can get it through your side by then, that keeps the start date in the diary. If anything in it doesn't match what we talked about, tell me and I'll sort it. Cheers, Tom
- Joost Verbeek 17 Dec 2025 11:11Tom, We did not sign yesterday. To be honest, I have one point open. What was agreed was that the connectors to HubSpot, Zendesk and our accounting system are live within a fixed number of days after signature. I see the clause, but I want the timeline in writing from your side before I send this to our legal team. So what is the plan? Please give me the dates your engineers will work to. Met vriendelijke groet, Joost
- Tom Ashdown 18 Dec 2025 13:34Joost, Fair point, and no drama. Leave that with me. I'm going through the connector commitment with Elena Novak and the engineers today and I'll send you the sequence in writing, so you can see it before legal look at the order form. I won't guess at the days from memory, I'll confirm them properly. You'll have it from me tomorrow. Best, Tom
