1 flat fee: A "fee" is a charge or payment for professional services. Therefore a "flat fee" (or flat rate) is a single, fixed charge for a service (that isn't based on time taken or a percentage of some other amount). Example: Top music producers charge a FLAT FEE of £5000 for remixing a song. In the conversation, Susie says that "(Delavigne) would pay (Bümbüm) a flat fee of 25,000 dollars for the television ad".
2 incentive: An "incentive" describes an encouragement to do something. Example: The free toy in each packet of breakfast cereal is an INCENTIVE for people to buy Quellog's Coco-Smack. In the conversation, Susie offers a contract that will almost certainly be renewed and a commission on sales as "incentives" to tempt Ivana Bümbüm to sign with Delavigne.
