Episode 56
If you are at the stage of your e-commerce business where you want to talk with suppliers, this episode is for you. Today, Ken and I will drop a lot of golden nuggets you can pick up to turn into a pro negotiator. Based on our experience, negotiations don’t have to be purely business-related. After all, you’re still talking with people who are only living within a different culture and working with their own set of goals.
Let’s dive right in and learn how to negotiate with suppliers like a pro!!

[09:46 - 19:51] Ensure Quality of Products
[19:52 - 29:57] Be Respectful and Kind
[29:58 - 32:35] Closing Segment
