ReviewsDefeat the "Procurement Buzzsaw"...and get the margins you deserve "Negotiating with Backbone is part of our culture. We now truly understand the value of our services and know how to turn the negotiations table to our favor, regardless of the type of buyer we are facing. And the icing on the cake is access to Reed for the most difficult negotiations." -Rudy Ploder, President, U.S. Information Solutions, Equifax "Our customer-facing teams can confidently communicate and demonstrate our value to multiple buyer types. The Backbone strategies and tools drive real change in sales execution because they have a true understanding of value to the customer." -Lynn Guinn, Global Strategic Pricing Leader, Food Ingredient & Systems, Cargill "I have been reading Reed's works for over two decades now. Negotiating with Backbone, 2nd edition, comes with more fine-tuned insights - engaging, pragmatic, lucid and devoid of management jargon. It will take your thinking forward, help you craft winning pricing strategies, and arm you with negotiation tactics to better suit today's highly competitive B2B settings. Procurement teams are getting more trained, competition is becoming incredible fierce, while brand and customer loyalty are plummeting. Emerging as well as developed markets are grappling with longer recession cycles that trigger pricing issues and dominate minds of company's top management.' -Vishal Kimar, CEO & Entrepreneur, ACMECAST, New Delhi India "Procurement relief! Salespeople can unlock the mystery of procurement price pressure and bidding wars for less than the price of a dinner. Negotiating with Backbone is the first negotiation book of its kind that doesn't teach 'manipulative tricks'-rather it focuses on winning strategies that turn into orders. Buy it, read it, bank it." -Jeffrey Gitomer, author, Little Red Book of Selling The Second Edition is Even Better · Prepare for the procurement gauntlet · Counter procurement's cutting-edge models and analytics · Use "Give-Gets" to restore the link between price and value, Defeat the "Procurement Buzzsaw"...and get the margins you deserve "Negotiating with Backbone is part of our culture.
