Do you want to be a winner negotiator and get what you want when you want it? I would like to tell you some tips and give you some steps that can help you negotiate things to end in your favor just about every time on anything.
Steps:
1. The best time and place to ask for something you what/need is when you are asking for it in your "home court". For example: if you want to ask for a raise, bring your boss into your space/office and let him see your work. Even better, ask after you've just been praised for a job or project well done.
2. Don't give a quick counter offer, make a seller work for the counter offer. This says to the person waiting, "this could end in a no deal" which they don't want to happen (normally) so make them sweat a little.
3. Don't say yes too quickly. Learn to say "no" a few times. You don't want to leave with the feeling of being "taken" or that you foolishly left too much on the table.
4. Shut up! Anything you say may be used against you. Talkers won't get the best deal.
5. Be a Super Winner! If your not satisfied with the offer you can always find a better deal that will satisfy your wants and needs and they will find one too.
