The Importance of Being Prepared to Leave

Being prepared to walk away from a deal is a crucial strategy when negotiating at a car dealership. When the buyer expressed readiness to leave due to unexpected add-ons, the sales team quickly sensed the urgency and began shifting tactics. This highlights the power dynamics in negotiations, where the seller responds differently once they perceive that the buyer is serious about leaving. Thus, maintaining a firm stance and clearly communicating the willingness to walk away can compel salespeople to reconsider their approach.
