Complex Negotiation skills
Negotiating is a key competence in business as well as in the day-to-day life. Many sales people still fail to defend the value of their solution because they are lacking the appropriate techniques or insufficient preparation. But this is something you can learn!
This 2-day program will focus on:
Purchasing strategies and tactics
Procurement is a multi-facet job and procurement KPI’s are often much more complex than simply buying at the lowest cost. This means that you, as a sales person, will have multiple motivational levers that you can activate in order to drive negotiation on other components of the offering, than solely on price:
- Step into the purchaser shoes and learn about his KPI and how he prepares himself for negotiating with you
- Read a professional purchaser dashboard
- Uncover the procurement maturity S-curve
- Learn about the strategic tools that guide purchasing activities in organizations
How to negotiate
Whether you are acting solo or as a team, you need to prepare your position and detect and resolve hesitation prior to negotiations:
- Clarify the negotiation standpoint
- Block the request a few times
- Define your Give & Take list
- Anticipate what the counterpart is likely to ask from you and what you will ask in return
And remember, negotiate only if you are the preferred supplier and if price is the only item left to agree upon.
