Overview

What negotiation skills training changes

Negotiation Skills is a practice-heavy sales negotiation training module built on your live, late-stage deals. Sellers arrive with real price pressure and leave with prepared trades, limits and language.

The focus is margin: every concession is planned, priced and traded for something that moves the deal forward.

The problem

Why teams ask for this program

  • 01

    Discounts are given before the buyer even asks, to protect the close.

  • 02

    Procurement enters late and resets terms the seller already agreed.

  • 03

    Concessions are handed over one-way instead of traded for something.

Who it's for

New joiners

Recent hires ramping into your market and deal cycle.

Programme modules

Inside Negotiation Skills

Every section is rebuilt around your buyer, deal cycle and objections before delivery.

01

Negotiation preparation

Know your trades, limits and walk-away before the meeting.

02

Handling price pressure

Respond to discount demands without instant concession.

03

Trading, not conceding

Every give has an ask attached to it.

04

Closing the agreement

Lock terms cleanly so nothing reopens later.

Learning methodology

How the program is delivered

Short input, heavy practice, then reinforcement so behaviour survives the quarter.

  1. Step 1: Diagnose

    Call listening and manager interviews before we design anything.

  2. Step 2: Customise

    Your buyers, objections and deals become the case material.

  3. Step 3: Practise

    Live practice with feedback, not lecture and slides.

  4. Step 4: Reinforce

    Manager clinics and follow-up sessions to lock in the habit.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

It is built for B2B sales negotiation, not procurement or HR settings. We use your pricing, discount bands and live deals, and the trades sellers practise are the ones your commercial policy actually allows.

Yes. Renewal and re-pricing conversations are one of the core practice scenarios, including how to re-prove value before a price discussion starts.

We baseline your current average discount and concession patterns before delivery, then review the same measures with your managers after the reinforcement clinics.
