Why Everything Is Negotiable

What would happen if you learned to push just a little more to get your way? Most of us give up the minute someone tells us that something is non-negotiable, but in our experience very few things actually are. To illustrate this point, we decided to tell you three different stories. The first two are about scenarios where we were able to negotiate something even when it seemed impossible to do so, including a medical bill and a software license fee that was set in stone. The third is about Sergei's old boss, and how he was able to negotiate a bonus payout for all of his employees, virtually pulling money out of thin air. Through these examples and more we've learned that almost anything can be negotiated as long as you take the time to ask the right questions and continue to dig, establish leverage, and focus on retaining the relationship with the person you're speaking with. For every rule, you can find an exception. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
