About this listen
Negotiation is the fastest and most amount of money you will ever make.
In one hour, you could make thousands or even millions of dollars. Yet you often negotiate from a position of weakness, ending up with unfavorable outcomes. This happens because you don’t have the necessary skills to make better deals.
You continually negotiate every day in everything you do. You bargain activities, vacation time, work duties, and even child care. Yet you probably have never had a course in how to negotiate effectively.
Everything is negotiable. Most of us just accept the price offered or the deal advertised. Often, we are afraid of negotiating because we think it will strain or kill relationships. But negotiation doesn’t have to be a win-loss game. You can strike a deal good for everyone. The skill lies in negotiating in a way that relationships can be built, developed and maintained. This is the first book ever written on how to combine negotiation with psychology to get the outcome you want.
What you will learn from this book:
- How billionaires negotiate
- How to bracket the seller to the price you want
- How to avoid making the first offer
- How to save lost sales and increase commissions
- Higher Authority—How to keep yours and take away theirs
- How to motivate decisions with time pressure, competition and decreasing value of concessions

Sales is a skill anyone can learn and master - and introverts are especially good at it once they learn how to leverage their natural strengths. Introverts aren't comfortable with traditional tactics like aggressively pushing a product or talking over a customer's objections. That's the beauty of The Introvert's Edge: it doesn't focus on the sale itself but on a sales system that helps introverts feel sincere instead of sales-y.

Old-school closing is old news. In today's world, prospects are over-exposed to marketing and are sales-resistant. Use these closes to help our prospects move forward and say “yes” to our offers. Not every close is perfect for every prospect. We want a variety of closes. Let’s choose which close is best for our prospects, and most natural for us. Never be afraid of closing again. In fact, we will look forward to closing. Happy times ahead!

As long as we're getting hired, that's a good thing, and it's all that matters. But after a while we learn an important truth: Not every client is a good client. In fact some of them are truly toxic.

People starting out in business tend to seek step-by-step formulas or rules, but in reality there are no magic bullets. Rather, says veteran company-builder Norm Brodsky, there's a mentality that helps street- smart entrepreneurs solve problems and pursue opportunities as they arise. Brodsky shares his hard-earned wisdom every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular "Street Smarts" column he cowrites with Bo Burlingham. Now they've adapted their best advice into a comprehensive guide for anyone running a small business.

Most of us think of sales as convincing potential customers to believe or do something they don't really want to. But that cutthroat mentality makes the process much harder than it has to be—especially in an economic downturn, when customers are more suspicious and defensive. It's far more productive (and satisfying) when salespeople think like Go-Givers and focus exclusively on creating value for the customer.

For years now, win-win has been the paradigm for business negotiation. But today, win-win is just the seductive mantra used by the toughest negotiators to get the other side to compromise unnecessarily, early, and often. Win-win negotiations play to your emotions and take advantage of your instinct and desire to make the deal. Start with No introduces a system of decision-based negotiation that teaches you how to understand and control these emotions.
