![]() The Negotiation Sourcebook, Second Edition focuses on the needs of active negotiators&emdash;those people asked daily to negotiate with vendors, government officials, and others. The articles cover a cross section of these negotiations and will help to fill in the gaps for those situations that your negotiators may have only limited experience in addressing. There are also a number of articles that provide a theoretical framework for the process, since more than technique is needed to be an effective negotiator. Because we do not negotiate in a vacuum but within the context of a relationship, each of these articles leans towards the problem-solving or collaborative approach. Unfortunately, not everyone readily accepts this model.

![]() Do you remember the old parable: "Give them a fish and they'll eat for a day, teach them how to fish and they'll eat for a lifetime" Well, closing the sale is the same thing.

That's the gift that keeps on giving to everyone. Research has clearly shown that if you don't ASK FOR THE ORDER, your probability of Closing is less than 20%.

If looks could kill demonstrates how thoughtless behaviour can create a dissatisfied customer. Its sequel, Through the customer's eyes, takes a different stance. In this amusing story with a sting in the tail, we see that how we believe we are behaving is not necessarily how the customer sees it. Mrs Porter (Marion Bailey) has reached the end of her tether. Her mounting frustration while shopping in Starmore's department store has driven her to the edge. Inspector Thackeray (Jeremy Clyde) from the Customer Services Squad arrives to investigate her claims of rude behaviour and poor service on the part of a number of the store's sales assistants. He retraces Mrs Porter's movements and uncovers a number of cases where she was ignored, forgotten or treated badly by staff. For example, she was left waiting while they did other jobs or discussed business with other employees. Inspector Thackeray then shows how positively Mrs Porter would have reacted had she received the service she expected. The staff of Starmore's learn to acknowledge waiting customers and apologise for any delay in serving them; understand that non-selling work comes second to serving customers; and discover when to call in a manager to resolve a problem. Finally they learn always to respect the customer's purchase. When sales staff offer the service that a customer expects, everyone benefits. Friendly behaviour sells. It also creates the perfect environment for selling accessories and services. The benefits

![]() In Part 1, Valuing your customers, a ‘Flash-Harry’ salesman takes every opportunity to show off his expertise. He’s all action - rushing from call to call, trying to satisfy customers’ every whim. But it soon descends into chaos and inevitably he starts missing appointments. In contrast, his colleague takes time to research customers and targets those that offer the greatest opportunity. Her approach means fewer calls, even fewer individual sales, but more long-term profit for her organisation.
In Part 2, Valuing yourself, ‘Flash Harry’ learns that by valuing himself and his time he will in turn be valued by customers as someone who can offer them specialist knowledge. He also realises that he has to manage his sales meetings and agendas. The truth eventually dawns that being trustworthy is more important and valuable than making a one-off sale. The benefits

Featuring Johne Cleese This program clearly demonstrates that the same guidelines for keeping customers satisfied apply in different situations, from sales to service to a retail checkout or reception desk. Customers can be trying; not all customers are pleasant. It's easy to put customers off; just be aggressive, or defensive. But it is vital to treat them all as personal guests, making them welcome and indulging their whims. In various realistic scenarios, staff resort to attacking behavior - by being patronizing or superior - or defensive behavior, where they ignore the customer altogether or fail to accept responsibility. The humorous sketches lay the foundations for customer care and provide a concrete set of behavioral rules to make customers happy and keep coming back. They provide a memorable demonstration of the do's and don'ts of customer care, which include finding a real need behind a request, agreeing a solution with a customer, and seeing things through to a successful conclusion.
