day one. I knew he wanted to conserve his cash, and I wanted both the higher price and the high interest I charged him.

The point is to be sure you look at all the factors that go into valuing something, whether it's real estate or a contract for cooking oil. Altering these factors can alter the price dramatically. Learn what you can about anything that might affect price.

If you were to buy a new car, for example, you might want to use one of the online services like Consumer Reports' website, in order to know what the dealer is actually paying for the car. You would also want to see what the dealer cost is for the options. With information like this, you can more effectively negotiate the lowest price, without going so low that they can't say yes (they still need to make a profit).

Effective negotiation doesn't mean always trying for the lowest price possible. If you are contracting with a cleaning service to clean your buildings every week, you may want a decent price, but you want quality work too. In fact, you may want to think about the motivation level and trustworthiness of a vendor that is being chronically underpaid by your company.

Research the numbers, and understand what they mean. It is one of the keys to good negotiation.
