If you can explain why getting the subscription will make or save the company money...

Basically for a sale to work you have to convince him the subscription is more valuable than the cost. We as people always judge on a value system like that. Up-play the subscription and downplay the $2.6k!

I have no problems with selling my bosses. The only downside of my method is they have to hire a new one every time.

I still have the board game Shogun[^] which was released in the same series. A game which features a Ninja for hire can't be so bad 
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
