The Competition just got tougher – are you prepared to compete?
Fewer jobs, tighter wallets, and more competition for less work…What does it mean for you? It means you are going to have to hustle harder for your sales and deals. It means no more “coasting” on your abilities. It means your customers and clients are being circled and targeted by the competition. The gloves are off in this economy.
For many people it also means more stress and a downgrading of goals – but it doesn’t have to be that way. The art of negotiation is the secret weapon few people use because they don’t understand it and think they can’t learn it.
But they can…
Do you think you don’t negotiate? Think again.
“We’re pulling the funding for your project …”,
“We have decided to decline your tenure…”,
“I’m selling my share of the business…”,
“Honey, we need to talk…”,
“What will it take for you to drive away in this car today…?”,
“Will you marry me?” and “I’m really sorry I…”
Under any name, negotiation is intimidating for most people. It can be a mediation or trial, a purchase or sale, a conversation, a speech, a board meeting, a proposal or a breakup… Eventually you have to negotiate to get what you need.
The art of negotiation is a learned skill that can be mastered to help you get the results you want. You can be a Negotiation Ninja. What’s on the line?
Many people limit negotiation to major purchases and miss opportunities to negotiate in day-to-day life. If you can’t negotiate a better rate for your new car or a hotel room upgrade – what are you going to do when something valuable or important is on the line? How well will you negotiate when it is your business, reputation, relationship, clients, vendors, tenure, credentials, or employees…on the line?
When it is important, you need to shine. If you want to get a better deal, you need to have a plan and a strategy that makes you feel confident and powerful. You need to understand the other party and anticipate their moves. You must be able to decide to walk away if negotiation is at impasse, and still be able to re-enter negotiations when you are ready.
Whether your next negotiation is tomorrow or next year, The Negotiation Ninja can help you get the best deal possible.
