Overview
Let me ask you a simple question. Do you treat the people you love as well as you do complete strangers? Come on now, that isn't a trick question. If you have to spend too long thinking about it before you answer, you need to read on.
There is a ton of information available to teach you how to be successful, especially on the job or in business. But, what about your personal life? How much time do you spend cultivating your personal relationships?
What about friends, neighbors and acquaintances? How well did you fare during your last automobile purchase? Were you able to bargain or did you feel intimidated and just wanted to get through the process quickly and be on your way?
Again, we think nothing of spending time and money to acquire training to improve our business life. But when we come to our interpersonal relationships we just coast along day after day taking life as it presents itself.
Sadly, taking this course of action can lead to disastrous results. The headlines are filled with stories of broken homes, divorce and yes, even violence all stemming from our inability to negotiate our private lives.
Is There Another Way?
Yes, there actually is another, better way which brings us to our author. Andrew Kline relates very well to the art of negotiation or at least comes pretty darn close.
Experienced in sales, Andrew perfected his negotiation skills on the job but even more beneficial, he was able to extend the art of negotiation to include family, friends neighbors and other people encountered in his daily life.
He has taken those skills and created an instructional handbook that you can use to improve your day to day interaction with your friends and family.
What Will I Learn?
The title of his handbook says it all - "Negotiating in Daily Life." Ask yourself these three questions:
What if you could learn what barriers influence your communication?
What if you could learn that BEFORE you have a confrontation?
What if there were a way to negotiate a mutually beneficial solution?
Well, you can, there is and we'd like to show you just how simple it can be.
It's actually pretty simple once you have the right tools. Negotiating your personal life is far more rewarding than just business negotiating although Andrew does cover that as well.
You provide a positive attitude and we bring out the right tools. You'll find those tools inside "Negotiating in Daily Life."
It's really all about how to take the skills that you probably already have and applying them to your personal interactions.
The author has created a comprehensive guide that will help you learn how to approach the opportunities for negotiating in your daily life. You CAN do this. Take a look at what you'll uncover:
Learn about selecting the right situations for negotiating.
Helping you overcome disappointments and move on.
How to overcome fear.
Discover how to maximize motivation!

About the Author
Andrew Kline has wide experience selling books, appliances and services in different industries. He said that his success in those ventures was only possible because of the strong support of his family.
Andrew wrote this book to help people improve the results they get from negotiations mostly in their personal lives. These interactions are probably more important than most of our business dealings for us in the long-term. But, many people focus on improving their business activities.
Then, they put less effort and time into maintaining and improving their personal relationships. Ignoring stresses there can impact their whole family, not just themselves for years.
Andrew has suggestions that will help every reader when negotiating with friends, family, sales people (like Andrew), bureaucrats at all levels and companies large and small.
Andrew said, “Many people are disappointed with the outcomes of their negotiations outside of their business activities.”
“They find that the methods they are taught don’t always work in private life. I want to help people with this because the outcomes can have important effects on them for years to come.”
“If we make mistakes with a sales call, we can just go on to another one. But, upsetting our partner or children can affect the quality of our lives and theirs for years to come.”
I have seen people that are overcome with stress when they have to discuss some important matter or decide on a major purchase. They really suffer through the experience and have little hope of getting the deal they need.
They have to deal with the consequences of their poor deal and its effect on their whole family.”
“The simple advice in my book can help them to reduce the tension and improve their results. These strategies are proven. Reading the book will help you improve your relationships and your life."
