Hand Vera the negotiation

Advice is cheap. The negotiation still needs running: the timeline, the documents, the emails, the follow ups. You are the project manager of every deal, on top of the day job.

So hand Vera the case. Opening one takes two minutes: name the vendor, the deal, and the goal, and attach what you have.

From there Vera runs the mechanics. She benchmarks the position, drafts the strategy, stages the asks, writes the emails for each step, and keeps the log of every offer and reply, so nothing lives in somebody's inbox.

Your part stays the judgment calls: approve the play, send the email, take the meeting. The homework arrives done.

Here is a worked case, end to end. The goal at the top, the standing as it moved, every document Vera produced along the way, and the next move always drafted and waiting. This is what a negotiation looks like when the machine carries the load: the file is complete, the history is honest, and the close is argued from evidence.

When it ends, the case is the record. What was asked, what was won, and what to do differently next time, filed and searchable.
