This video is extremely useful for me as a Master's student enrolled in a Business Negotiation course where our instructors are very strict due to their extensive professional experience. I am always nervous in class because we have a twice-weekly negotiate assessment during tutorials. I expect that this video will help me gain confidence and obtain an acceptable mark. I will update once I have completed my course.

I'm from Germany and we are doing an English Negotiation in class. Germans are really direct, but we have to talk indirectly and as formal as possible. It's really difficult to turn from direct into indirect talking, but I will do my best and practice a lot. This video was definitely helpful, I wrote some phrases down. Thank you!

[@Oxfordonlineenglish1]

Good luck! We're glad the lesson was helpful for you.

Gina and. Dainel thanks a lot for this video. It will take two to three business days because the ware house needs to put more things inside,instead of living them in the 🚚 truck where the things are. I know some buyers love Negotiate about certain things they are run out of in their business. So they will go out and sell it for cheaper prize to their own. customers. Is good to put it in writing when making a negotiations to the individual. Is a sign of evidence to the managers or workers brave explanations.
