Today’s retailers and manufacturers face their fiercest competition ever. As a result, both parties are feeling the squeeze, including demands for growth, improved margins, better terms, greater investment, increased capacity, and more. In an environment this tense, if you’re not strategizing to maximize value, then chances are, you’re leaving opportunities on the table.
As Simpactful’s Team has assessed this challenging marketplace, our most common observation is now more than ever, your ability to negotiate for joint value will disproportionately impact your bottom line. That’s why Simpactful is training business leaders to negotiate by focusing on maximizing value for both parties, in a way that will allow you to achieve goals, maximize value, but simultaneously build / maintain relationships.
Simpactful’s training course, “Negotiating for Joint Value,” provides a clear path to better negotiation results. Our team brings years of hands on negotiation experience with both key retailers and top manufacturers and will teach in a very interactive way through highly customized scenarios, skill practices, and simulations.
