A successful negotiation is when two people (or teams) reach agreement on something which they are both happy with. There should not be a winner and a loser. The negotiation should end with both people getting what they want. For example, if workers negotiate with the company’s management, the workers may get more pay and the management may get better productivity.
To be a good negotiator takes a lot of skill and preparation. You need to:
– understand what is a good result for the other team as well as yourself
– have a clear idea of your objectives
– be willing to compromise on your objectives
– be sure what your priorities are – what is most important to you
– have a strategy – a plan of what you are going to do and say
– listen carefully to the other people – what they say, and how they say it
– be well-prepared.

Choosing the right advertising for your product or service is really important. Here are some tips.
– Understand your customers. Find out who they are (their age, interests, lifestyle, income, buying habits). Find out what is the best way to reach them. Which newspapers do they read? Which TV programmes do they watch?
– What do you want your advertising to achieve? What is its purpose? Do you want to inform people about your product or service? Do you want them to buy it, or see it in a different way? What is its USP (unique selling point)?
– Keep your message simple and clear. Say just one thing, e.g. “This is new”, “This is better”, “This makes life easier”. Make sure you have a headline that is eye-catching. Make sure the text tells the customer everything you want them to know.
