Negotiate Everything
Today, I thought that I might write about something I have spent the last 35 years perfecting - negotiating a deal. I have been and still am on occasion, a union negotiator.

I use these skills at every opportunity, and I believe that some of them are invaluable for the small business person.
My definition of negotiating - “Making the impossible acceptable.”
Negotiations usually happen when you are willing to part with something in return for some consideration from another person.
The average person enters into several negotiations every day. Most people just don’t recognize these experiences for what they are - a chance to make a better deal.
