I think what they really want is an exclusive network free of my other Internet traffic and perhaps a Canopy would work but I'd like to think they want something faster. They do know the difference between a T1 and Ethernet I think they just want private.

I remember seeing it somewhere. If they just want connectivity for their LANs, put up a Canopy backhaul and be done with it. Or just bridge them into your network and VLAN it. Most people think "T-1" is some exotic super pipe. They don't realize it's decades old technology and only 1.54meg. I think that T-1 signaling box was around a grand, maybe $1200. I had a call from one of the big name brand fruit companies around here. They have a T-1 to a private LAN in another city at their main warehouse. They were looking for options. I told them, "Well, I can sell you a T-1 for $595/mo and it's 1.54meg, or I can sell you our SME wireless service for $149/mo where you'll see 4 to 6 meg. Do the math." They usually opt for option B.
