Conducting a successful negotiation where both parties arrive at a productive, mutually beneficial outcome is a delicate art — one that's every bit as screw-up-able as it is valuable. Thoughtful, effective negotiating skills are a “need to have” if you're going to hack it in sales, but developing them is rarely straightforward.

Storytelling is one of our oldest forms of communication and is an excellent persuasive tool. Stories do the job better than facts – you only have to look to the tabloid news cycle to see that. It’s also clear that, however fictional, stories can profoundly impact actions in reality, as the “Jaws effect” proves — a phenomenon where real-world policy around hunting sharks stems from an irrational overreaction to a scary, and fictional, Hollywood movie.

Sunday, when the Priest was giving his sermon he said they (the Priests) compare mass attendance at the end of each weekend.

If people can’t find out about your business, they can’t buy from you, limiting possibilities for earning a profit.
