The classic Mafia "you will owe me a favour to collected upon later"
pops immediately to mind. You could also have her ask for a unique item or
service ("you must chop down the tallest tree in the forest with.... a
herring!"). Maybe she's got exotic tastes, and wants the first bottle of
Beaujolais 2058 personally addressed and delivered to her. So the runners
have to deal with the vineyards, with the customer (undoubtedly a AAA mega)
who reserved the first bottle, deal with possible breakage, etc., etc.
