As you start off 2010, be sure to be one step ahead when it comes to negotiating contracts.
Let the experts at PEC negotiate a hotel contract to best suit your needs!
Here are some of our best tips when beginning your negotiations:
1. Don't be afraid to ask - good negotiators ask for everything they want and make sure they don't end up with something they don't want.
2. Get it in writing - this assures both parties live up the agreement
3. Never negotiate against yourself - once you make an offer, don't make another until you get a response.
4. Prepare - learn as much as possible about the needs of your group
5. Know your bottom line - this way, you won't agree to something that you do not like.
6. Know the other side - when negotiating with someone in authority, make sure that person agrees with your position and understands it.
7. Listen to the other side - good negotiators are both good talkers and listeners
8. Establish a back-up plan - know the next best option
9. You can't substitute communication - avoiding tough issues does not get you anywhere
10. Never sign anything you do not completely understand.
