Negotiation Skills
Many deals require good negotiation, and to get the best outcome possible requires skilful negotiation, and negotiation skills are not difficult to learn.

We're all highly experienced negotiators too, although we may not realise it!  We have all developed the negotiation skills for getting what we want.

Some people are said to be good negotiators, others tough negotiators.  There are several fundamental rules that apply to every negotiation and anyone can learn them and, by practising them, once again become a confident negotiator.  Negotiation skills in one field are generally transferable to any other.  Even the novelists have to study the subject in order to write about it convincingly.

No, it's not about being bloody minded, or obstinate, or petulant, or downright obstructive!  But if these techniques are seen to work, we can't blame people for continuing to use them.  Better of course to study my tips for negotiating and negotiating is something everyone looks forward to.

And of course it's perfectly possible to haggle at your local supermarket - If you know how to negotiate!

Sales Help

The best results come when the Sales function is an integral part of a well-planned overall Marketing strategy - Help is at hand!

Sales

Sales is an important part of the overall 'spectrum' of Marketing activities.

Sales Language

Sales language should be 'customer-speak' not 'me-speak', sales jargon, clichés or outdated analogies.

Pricing

How do you set your prices?  Is it cost plus?  By comparison with what your competitors are charging?  Or do you sell your time at a fixed price per hour or per day?

Deal Making

Sales is not a zero-sum game.  For every winner, there does not have to be a loser.  The best deals leave both parties winning.

Telephone Sales

The Telephone is a powerful Sales tool in educated hands!

Account Management

Keeping customers is far less costly than getting new ones, so get good at looking after them.
