Negotiating 101
It’s more fun than you think, or less I suppose

I have been working on a course I was encouraged to write that offers basics to anyone who wants to get better at negotiating. This post isn't a sales pitch, but rather the first lesson from the course. I know I have neglected Medium while writing it. As this part of the course isn’t overly technical and the subject is relatable, I thought I would post it. No questions, just the lesson.
I don’t even have a link to sell the course yet, so as I said, this is just a fun read.
Enjoy!

Most negotiations fall into two categories.
Buyer or Seller.

***In the following section I use $10,000 as the base price for a car. I am aware you can not buy a new car for $10,000. I use that number to simplify the math. If it makes you more comfortable, add a zero or two***
