The "Awkward" Negotiation Trick: How Silence Closes More Deals Than Talking
from The Butterfly Mindset Podcast · host Cyrus Mohseni
Silence is a power move. Humans are hardwired to chase comfort, and nothing is more uncomfortable than a quiet room during a high-stakes deal. When you stop talking, the other person feels an intense psychological need to fill that void. That is exactly when they reveal their hand, drop their price, or make the concession you were looking for. Stop being a "talker" and start being a strategic communicator. Deliver your value, state your price, and then shut up. Let the silence do the heavy lifting for you. It’s not about who talks the most, it’s about who has the most control!
