27 Principles of Negotiating

    • Basics to Keep in Mind

      <!--begin paragraph-->




      1. If you ask for something before a contract is signed, it's called
        “negotiating.” If you ask for something after a contract is signed, it's called
        “begging.” It's better to be a good negotiator than an expert beggar.



      2. From negotiator Chester Karras: “You don't get what you deserve, you get what
        you negotiate.”



      3. From motivational expert Zig Ziglar: “You can get anything in life, if you
        help enough other people get what they want.”



      4. Everything is negotiable, but everything has a price.



      5. Quoted prices are invitations to buy, but not statements of
        value.
