I'm Paul Alex, and today we're going to be talking about one of the most valuable skills you could develop as an entrepreneur and even a person, okay how to negotiate like a pro and get what you want so let's be real everything in business is negotiable your salary your contracts your deals if you want to master the art of negotiation you'll unlock opportunities others can only dream of guys so let's break it down first know your value the biggest mistake people make in negotiating is walking in without confidence you can't convince someone of your worth if you don't believe in yourself.

When I first started negotiating deals in merchant merchant services, I learned quickly that if I wasn't clear on the value I was bringing, I couldn't close.

So you got to do your homework.

You got to understand what you're bringing to the table and you got to stand firm.

Second, listen more than you talk, guys.

Negotiation isn't about bulldozing the other person.

It's actually about understanding their needs and aligning them with yours.

Pay attention.

Ask questions and find out what they truly care about.

When you listen, you actually uncover opportunities to create a win-win situation.

And that's where the magic happens, guys.

The best negotiators don't push.

They actually solve problems.

Problem solvers.

And lastly, always be ready to walk away.

The strongest position in a negotiation is the ability to say no, guys.

If the terms don't align with your goals, don't force it, guys.

Early in my career, I made the mistake of agreeing to bad deals just to close them.

And it actually costs me more in the long run.

So you got to know your boundaries.

And don't compromise your vision for short-term gains, guys.

What's the bottom line here?

Negotiating like a pro isn't about the tricks or tactics, guys.

It's about knowing your value, listening carefully, and having the courage to walk away when necessary.

You master this and then you'll always get what you deserve, guys.

Thanks for tuning in to the Love All Podcast.

I'm Paul Alex, reminding you that negotiation isn't a battle, guys.
