Negotiations Often Require 7 Touches

When you begin a negotiation, start by thinking you will go back and forth 7 times or even more.

Don’t start out thinking it will be one and done. Begin with the idea that they will reject your first 3-4 offers. In fact, you can make the first, full offers such that they are very likely to reject them.

When you prepare for rejections and 7 touches, it makes it easier getting through the negotiation.

Celebrate The Finishing Touches

When you have done a great job on something, do a little extra and make it amazing. Deliberately dazzle people. Make things shine.

My wife is brilliant at this. She will work exceptionally hard to get things done and then push through the exhaustion to deliver a distinguished result. Take a look at our property portfolio and you will see.

Make it amazing and then celebrate the finishing touches.
