Just got back from San Jose Cabo Mexico. Spent two days there with my Mastermind group. We told stories and swapped moneymaking ideas for our businesses. Naturally, I came home energized and raring to go.
My desk is loaded with stuff, so this will be a short letter.
I want to share a powerful negotiating tip that I pieced together from two different sources. It's a gem! At least I think so.
And you should save it - cause if you do, it'll save you a bundle over your lifetime, especially with big purchases.
The two sources for this versatile negotiating tip are George Ross, from the Apprentice Show Boardroom and Bill Lee, who is a good friend, author, and a master salesman.
Here's the tip - everybody negotiates. Some people enjoy negotiating while others detest it.
The next time you find yourself negotiating with a seller, consider this strategy, if you're determined to get a better price.
You say, "You gotta do better."
Wait for a response.
Then say, "You're getting real close."
Wait for a response.
Then say, "You're almost there."
These power phrases can pull extra concessions from the seller - which means more money in your pocket.
It's a powerful tip and I hope it helps you save a bundle.
My Ultimate No-Brainer Selling Skills Manual Vol. II is hot off the press.
I decided at the last minute to include two chapters on negotiating.
