Read on to learn to negotiate while you satisfy the wishes and needs of both parties in what is commonly called a win-win negotiation.<\/p>\n<h2>How to measure satisfaction<\/h2>\n<p>During a negotiation, both parties seek their own satisfaction beyond the tangible goods that they may end up obtaining from the process (money, services, ego, competition, security, etc.). The main obstacle to satisfaction lies in how difficult it is to measure: it is a <strong>subjective concept<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>That which may cause satisfaction in one person, may cause displeasure in another. That is why the stage of information exchange is particularly important here. During that time, we can find out what really satisfies our interlocutor and, at the same time, we can <strong>offer some clues<\/strong> about our own needs.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>You may also like: <strong><a title=\"5 Negotiation Tactics that Will Make your Business Grow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.game-learn.com\/en\/resources\/blog\/negotiation-tactics-make-business-grow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">5 Negotiation Tactics that Will Make your Business Grow<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Satisfaction is not exchangeable<\/h2>\n<p>For the reasons mentioned above, it is impossible for us to exchange satisfaction between both parties. That is, <strong>you cannot renounce to your own satisfaction<\/strong>; in the same way that you cannot demand that the other party renounce to theirs.<\/p>\n<p>The key is on <strong>concessions<\/strong>: it is through them that we build bridges and create closer ties in the medium and long term. These are easier to measure, as they correspond to specific interests or issues that have previously been put on the table. Concessions allow to satisfy both sides simultaneously if combined correctly, paving the way towards a win-win negotiation.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Related post: <strong><a title=\"Persuasion Techniques: The Importance Of Negotiating Patiently\" href=\"https:\/\/www.game-learn.com\/en\/resources\/blog\/persuasion-techniques-importance-of-negotiating-patiently\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Persuasion Techniques: The Importance Of Negotiating Patiently<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Satisfaction\u2019s greatest enemy<\/h2>\n<p>If there is one thing that significantly lowers the satisfaction rate during a negotiation win-win, that is the hurry to make the first concession.

Your credibility will plummet if you suddenly reduce the price considerably: your partner will feel cheated even though you are, a priori, seeking their satisfaction.
