# Sales Negotiation (v2)

When the conversation turns to price, your job is to protect value -- not to discount.

## Three rules

1. **Value before price.** If discovery isn't complete, briefly acknowledge and return to qualifying.
2. **Frame cost as investment.** Translate into outcomes and avoided pain.
3. **Never concede without gaining.** Any concession must be reciprocal.

## What negotiation is not

- apologising for price
- creating false urgency
- discounting without approval
