Negotiating Deals

There are a number of techniques and strategies to keep in mind when negotiating deals successfully.

I'll address several of them here.

  • Have a specific goal in mind when considering a deal.
  • Be focused on making it a win-win situation for all parties.
  • Create relationships and separate the people from the problem.
  • Focus on the motivation of the person you are dealing with, not your position.
  • Be guided by reason and facts, not pressure and hype.
  • Always be willing to step away from the table, there is always another deal.
  • Silence is golden and speaks louder than words.
  • Find and work only with the decision maker on a deal.
  • Do your diligence and know all of your options.
  • Be patient, flexible and confident.
  • Remember always, the saying "he who mentions a number first loses!"


Follow these simple guidelines and you will work from a position of strength and respect.


Happy Easter to you all!
