Our list continues with nine more effective methods for closing a deal. Whether itÂ’s in the workplace, your home, or other situation, negotiating skills can help keep everyone satisfied. Follow up solid negotiations with a strong close, and chances are youÂ’ll achieve your goals. (DonÂ’t miss the first eight closing tips in Closing the Deal: Negotiating Your Way to Happiness Part 3.)
9. Sometimes, you have to give something to get something.
Making reasonable compromises fosters a team atmosphere, helping both sides achieve their goal. (Guys: for every action film to which you’ve dragged your girl, surely you can put up with a “chick-flick” on occasion.)
10. Decide the American way: Vote.
It doesn’t necessarily guarantee the right answer, but it’s accepted as “Truth, Justice, and the American Way.” (This solves the “where to go for dinner with friends” dilemma every time!)
11. Take a walk down memory lane.
Calling on past solutions often works to resolve present difficulties.
12. Call for help!
Sometimes another viewpoint is all thatÂ’s needed to present your position to the other side. (Girls: your sister is probably not the best person to call if youÂ’re negotiating with your spouse.)
13. Solve your problems through arbitration.
Bring in a neutral party to sort out the pros and cons of the issues. This is particularly helpful when there are multiple parties involved.
14. Break an impasse with an expertÂ’s help.
Ask an expert (industry, social, etc. depending on your situation) to present pertinent information to both sides in an effort to arrive at a solution (Redecorating? Call HGTV! Heck, they might even do it for you.)
15. Always keep your word.
Be sure youÂ’re willing to stand by your promise or trust will be broken, and youÂ’ll destroy your credibility for next time.
16. It helps to put it in writing.
Putting your agreement in writing prevents one or both parties from forgetting, or misinterpreting the terms.
17. Shake on it.
Using a symbolic gesture to wrap up a deal gives it a note of finality. This can be anything from a handshake to a kiss (donÂ’t try this at work!).

As Seen on TV: Songs from Commercials
$3.00 This collection begs the question: Do the means justify the end? Even the title, As Seen on TV, is so crass one might expect a free set of Ginsu knives to be thrown in with the disc. But the trend set by those savvy TV advertising execs of pushing products from cars to clothes to cruises through hipster songs has resulted in an undeniably quality, albeit disparate, compilation. From the deva... |
