Negotiate Like an Entrepreneur

Published: Jan. 6, 2020, 10 a.m.

Negotiation is one of the most overlooked things in the lives of entrepreneurs. There are many reasons for this, which we\u2019ll get into in this episode, but suffice it to say that when entrepreneurs don\u2019t learn how to negotiate well, lots of money is left on the table. To discuss this issue I asked my business coach, Marty Park to give us an overview of the issue.

Marty has built businesses from the ground up for years\u2014 14 companies over two decades. He\u2019s able to speak to this issue from experiential and observational standpoints. He\u2019s fought to scale, grow, and even sell businesses like any entrepreneur and has learned the power of negotiation for increasing profitability. He regularly advises business coaching clients in these issues as well.
