商务英语谈判案例

商务英语谈判案例分析Jay is a bissiness who works on gymnasium equipment，and it was the first meeting between yoyo and him. In just a few minutes of the conversation, yoyo felt that this big fellow with a straightforward appearance kept a mind of a cunning rabbit .Known that the guy was skilled in this way ,he took great care in the negotiation.In the first round ,their covercition was as follows:D: shall we start? R=Y oyoR: yes. I’d be glad to answer any questions you may have.D: Y our product leaves me a deep impression. But I'm a little worried about the prices.R: Don’t worry. Before we quote the price, plz tell us the exact quantity you want.D: I’m not sure still. I know your research costs are high, but I prefer 20% discount.R: No, no.no.you must be kidding. That’s a big cut, and it will make us no profit.D: if we promise future business that will reduce your costs for products, right?R: Y es, but it's hard to see how you can place such large orders. (Pause) We need a guarantee of future business, not just a promise.D: We said we wanted 500 pieces over a 3-month period. What if we place orders for 6 months, with a guarantee?R: If you can guarantee that on paper, I think we can discuss this further. But even with volume sales, our coats won't go down much.D: so, what are your propose?R: We could give you a cut. But not 20%,we can grant 10% at most, that’s the best we can do.D: That's a big change from 20! 10 is beyond my deadline. (pause) Any other ideas?R: I don't think I can make a decision right now. Why don't we talk again tomorrow?D: Sure. I must talk to my office anyway.I hope we can find some common ground on this.NEXT DAYD: yoyo, sorry to tell you that we cannot accept your quotation; let’s came up with some thing else.R: I hope so, jay. My aim is to negotiate hard on this oeder――but I'm trying very hard to reach some middle ground.D: I understand. We suggest a structured deal. For the first 3 months, we get a discount of 15%, and the next 3 months we get 12%.R: Dan, I can't bring those numbers back to my office――they'll reject it directly.D: Then you'll have to think of something better, yoyo.R: How about 12% the first 3 months, and the second 3 months at 10%, with a guarantee of 1500 units?D: That's a large numbers to sell, withsuch low profit.R: It's about the best we can do, jay. (pause) We need to figure something out today. If I go back empty-handed, I may be coming back to you soon to ask for a job. (smiles) D: (smiles) O.K., 12% the first six months, 10% for the second?!R: so,that’s the deal. D:yes,nice cooperation!（握手）In the whole process of the negotiatin ,Robert had always been taking advantages. He was cleat that in the Asia part ,his company was the best choice of opponents,and hold a hard attitude all the way in the negotiation.In the first ,it was Dan who came up with the topic of price and gave out more informations about price negotiating by which time he lost the initiative. While Robert did more better , in the first round ,when Dan came up with the idea of big deals he insisted on the point that he need a guarantee of future business instead of a promise. In this way ,Dan put forward a Concrete plan and agree to make a guarantee to win Robert’s agree to consult about the price.Later in the second round ,they had a fierce discuss on the final price .With a problem of cost ,Robert gave out a price which is too far away from Dan’s expectation and finally they agree to have one day off for consideration.By this time,Robert had got the idea of the boss that to be hard, this day off was time for Dan’s consideration. This action was intelligent and polite.Then the next day, indeed as expected,Dan reduced request again. Two different discount rates in two pierods. This time,their discuss didn’t comt to an agreement again time. Then ,Robert made a humous , If I go back empty-handed, I may be coming back to you soon to ask for a job. And finally achieved his purpose.Soon ,Robert turned to the Freight scale and asked for longer time to stock up which was nother big success. Besides what surprised us was the other result that Make it ten years, increase the unit price, and provide technology transfer.In the end , the negotiation was a total success that brount both Short-term interest and long-term cooperation program. Mr Robert succesfully used many skills in negotiation and won the victory of the game.A:为出口公司B:为国外进口公司场景一：价格谈判A和B开门走进办公室……A: please take your seat,---B:Thank you.A:After anttending our new product launch meeting,you must have a detail idea about our products,---.Now please let me know what kinds of flowers you are interested.(A递给B 一个产品目录册，B迅速地翻阅并作出标记)B:Y es,your flowers are pretty beautiful and leave me a deep impression.(A接过B递回的册子，翻阅)B:And I’d like to get the ball rolling by talking about the price.what prices will you offer for these I’ve marked?A:---,before we quote price please tellme how many flowers you are going to buy.B:for No.10 we’d like to phurchase 1500 units,No.20,1000 units and 1000 units for No.30.A:The usual price for No10 is 25 USD,for No20,35,and No30,50USD.they are all on the trade term of CIF Sydney.B:I think it’s unacceptable for us,you know the market has shrinked a lot during the economic ressesion period.

B:Transshipment is not allowed,neither is partial shipment. Perhaps you arrange it by charter.A:No,---,it’s a big c ost. We can’t do that. If you can undertake part of the charter fees, we can manage that.B:Is Perth ok?A:Perth is a good choice. Do you have any other requirement?B:We also need the insurance to be effected for 130% of the invoice value covering all risks as per ICC.A:130% and all risks? That will increase our spend.

商务英语谈判课本

商务英语谈判课本Chapter Four Content of Negotiation (I)Anyone engaged in foreign trade knows that negotiation is a very important component in international business activities. As far as international investment, import and export of products, machinery and equipment are concerned, negotiation on international business and economy is a consultative process between governments, trade organizations, multinational enterprises or private firms. In short, it is a process between the buyers and the sellers, so negotiation is one of the important steps taken toward completing import and export trade agreements.4.1 Inquiry and ReplyIn international business activities, making inquiry is the initial stage of business negotiation between the buyers and sellers, the purpose of whichis to seek a supply of products, service or relative information.Usually, the buyers make inquiries without any engagement to get information about the goods to be ordered. The sellers, however, can also make inquiries to get information about the goods to sold, without any engagement, too.The information wanted by the buyers or the sellers usually includes the following elements: The supply of commodities;The price;The catalogue; The packaging; The delivery date;Terms of payment and other terms concerned. Inquiry can be made orally or in written form.If the written form is adopted, the person who makes inquiries should remember to consider carefully to which the inquiries are to be sent and how many supplies or purchases are to be approached in one and the same region. Failure to take into consideration the relevant situation would lead to adverse effect on future transactions.When writing enquiry letters to your counterpart, there is on need to choose words and phrases carefully to draw the readers’ attention. A request for a price list or catalogue can be made in a single sentence. A request fora quotation of price and other trade terms may need a little longer description, which should be clear and exact. But remember there is no needfor long, over-polite phrases and still less humbleness.If it is the first transaction between the parties concerned, the first enquiry letter should begin by telling the receiver how his name and addressis known. Then, some generally information about your own business, such as the kind of goods handled, quantities needed or to be sold, usual terms of trade and any information likely to enable the suppliers or the buyers to decide what they can do for you, should begiven.Having received the enquiry letter, the receiver should study it with caution and reply the enquiry letter as soon as possible, telling them whether you could sell or buy.If in oral form, especially when the business relations have been established between the buyers and sellers, the inquiries and replies will be very easy and simple. What should be paid attention to is that both of them may have a friendly and cordial discussion according to what has been mentioned.4.2 Offer and Counter-offerIn many types of business, it has always been the practice for thesupplier to make an offer directly to his regular customers and to others who may be interested in his goods, without waiting for an enquiry. But when the supplier has received an enquiry from the buyer and decide to sell the goods, he should make an offer to him.It should be pointed out that offer is different from quotation. Quotation is just an indication of price without contractual obligation, and it is subject to change without previous notice. We have learned that a proposal for concluding a contract addressed to one or more specific persons constitutes an offer if it is sufficiently definite and indicates the intention of theofferer to be bound in case of acceptance. So offer is a definite commitment on the part of the supplier.In business activities, when making an offer, orally or in written form, the following elements are usually included:The name, price, quality and quantity of the goods; The date of delivery and/or time of shipment; The terms of payment; The validity of the offer;Other terms concerned, such as packing, discount, insurance, etc. When a supplier promises to sell the goods at a stated price within a stated period of time, the offer made by him is called a firm offer. In making a firm offer, mention should be made of the time of shipment and the date of delivery, the mode of payment desired and the period for which the offer is valid. In addition, an exact description of the goods should be given. If possible, pattern or sample should be shown or sent.It should be noted that a firm offer, although not legally binding, is capable of acceptance, and once it has been acceptable it cannot be withdrawn and the offerer should perform the obligations stipulated in it.It is known that a reply to an offer which purports to be an acceptance but contains additions, limitations or other modifications is a rejection of the offer and constitutes a counter-offer. So, a counter-offer means a partial rejection of the original offer, and it also means a counter proposal put forward by the buyers or the offeree.In practical business negotiations, the buyers may not agree on theprice, packing, shipment or payment, etc. He may state his own terms instead. Such alterations indicate that business has to be negotiated on a renewed basis. Such being the case, the original offerer or the seller now becomes the offeree and is entitled to accept of refuse. In the latter case, he may make another counter-offer of his own. This process can go on for many a round until the transaction is concluded or called off.Sometimes, the sentence “Accept your offer subject to the following alterations……” may be used in answering an offer. Although the word “accept” is used, in fact, the off er is still rejected, because the offeree does not agree to the whole offer.In making a counter-offer, the party concerned should express regret at inability to accept, explain reasons for non-acceptance and suggest that there may be other opportunities to do business together in the future.4.3 Price and Placing ordersIt is known to all of us that price, which should be carefully considered, is one of the most important factors in the international business activities.Price is the money of other considerations exchanged for the ownership or use of a product or service. The products’ price includes fixed cost, variable cost and expected profit. The fixed cost and variable cost of export products, however, means the total figure of production cost, selling cost, delivery cost, taxes and tariffs and some other unknown感谢您的阅读，祝您生活愉快。

4. 关于账单支付（Paying the Bill）西方人没有抢着买单的习惯，如果说好是一方请客，那另一方只说谢谢就好，不必再拉扯争抢。西方人比较喜欢各自付款，互不相欠，这种结账方式也被称为AA 制。AA 源自英文“Algebraic Average”，意为“代数平均”。不过，有一种“go Dutch”的说法要慎用。这个表达的意思是“就按荷兰人（那种小气）的方法来”。这样的说法源自英国人对荷兰人平分账单行为的偏见，所以，对荷兰人总是不礼貌的。从事涉外商务的人，要尽可能不说涉及种族偏见的话。
