Italian term or phrase: La partita è aperta!
E' un corso di formazione alla vendita che simula determinate situazioni tra venditore e cliente.

Il cliente trova il prezzo un po' alto ma è ancora disposto a comprare (magari qualcosa d'altro).

Il formatore rassicura lo studente/venditore dicendo:

Segnale positivo. ***La partita è aperta!*** Mostrate altri prodotti XXX

Come tradurreste?

Grazie mille,
Francesca
