Business Negotiation in English

Part 2 - Meeting a potential business

  1. Always start with the biggest strength of your company, which will arouse interest in your product(s). In Petra's case, it's the company history and family atmosphere of the company.
  2. Refer to market research and data about your company. These include customer portfolio, overview of your competition, SWOT analysis, and future development analysis.
  3. Talk about the potential of your product(s).
  4. Introduce the product(s). Make the listener(s) really excited and arouse their interest in hearing more about your product. Petra might say, for example: "Would you like to see the baubles that decorate the Christmas tree in the White House? Here they are!"
  5. Describe your product(s). Petra talks here about the material they use, how they design their products, and what plans they have for new range of products.
  6. Close by summarizing all the competitive advantages of the product(s).
  7. Open questions & answers session unless you allowed the listeners to ask you throughout the presentation.
