One-on-One Coaching for Sales Negotiation
Posted on 05/18/2016 in Sales Negotiation SkillsHow can coaching on sales negotiation help you? Negotiation is a critical part of the sales process yet many sales professionals tend to make several common mistakes during a negotiation, in particular when faced with adversarial tactics.
Here are two common sales negotiation mistakes:
First, when planning for a negotiation one of the most critical steps is to make sure that you prepare and practice your opening position:
- How much should you request in your initial offer?
- What is your walkaway point? You must know this before the negotiation begins.
Second, how can you respond effectively if the other person uses adversarial negotiation tactics? Average negotiators become flustered and make concessions when the other person becomes adversarial. For example, what would you do if the other negotiator says, "You've got to do better than that."?
