O.K. you’re patting yourself on the back for all of the homework you’ve done on your perspective car that you are going to buy… so you’re fired up and ready to go… right?

It’s great that you’ve done much homework on the car that you’ve got your eye on… good job. But, consider this – have you given any thought at all as to what your negotiating game plan is going to be? If you really want to maximize your car deal, it only makes sense to give this area some additional consideration.

Negotiating is skill that can be learned and gets better with practice. Throughout everyone’s life – first as children then as parents – negotiation occurs rather regularly. Now that you’re looking at stepping onto a car dealership, you shouldn’t suddenly feel as though you’ve never been involved in negotiations… I’ll bet that you have.

First and foremost, plan to succeed. Simple thought I know, but it is part of the preparation. If you go into the process thinking that you would really like to get the selling price down to a certain figure, but at the same time you’re telling yourself that this probably won’t happen… then guess what… it won’t. You won’t have the confidence, and the sales person or sales manager will get work on your shaky expectations and get you off your target price.

Be mindful of the other hand though. If you go into the car selling price negotiating process like the proverbial ‘bull in a china shop’ you’ll probably trip the sales person’s and the sales manager’s hot button and they will push back just as vigorously creating a negotiating chasm.

The key as a polished negotiator is to stay calm and pleasant and present win-win scenarios.

Secondly – Be prepared. Don’t go into any type of transaction such as buying a car unprepared. Don’t just know about the car and what you want your car to come with – know what each of these options cost… don’t guess or assume… There is profit to be negotiated upon across the board at any given dealership. Knowledge is confidence, and sales people will pick up on the fact that you know of which you talk and this will significantly cut down on the sales b.s.

Next – Leave yourself wiggle room inside your cocoon of happiness target. In other words never start with the price you want to pay. Remember, by definition here we are negotiating with another person… if you start with the price you want to pay; you’ll have no choice but to negotiate your way up and out of it. So, if you’re will to spend say $15,000 then start at $14,000 and work to create a win-win somewhere in between. And, oh by the way… no one in the dealership other than you has or will have NO IDEA of what you’re willing to pay.

Here’s a bonus tip – if the sales person kicks off the negotiations with the first offer, don’t counter with a number… that’s right no counter number… instead counter back with a pleasant … “I’m afraid that’s somewhat beyond my budget” … make them come back with another offer to get you in the game. Now you just gotten a newer offer and you haven’t even jumped in yet. The first offer from the dealer is usually their ‘home run’ swing… they don’t really expect you to serve yourself up at this point (although some do… and hence the home run in profit).

Keep in that this is not a one way street. You’ll have to participate and make some concessions in order for your deal to be a winner. For instance, if you can’t get to the selling price you want then get more for your trade, get an extended warranty at dealer cost, get some no cost service or oil changes, floor mats, … anything that keeps the deal moving forward and the negotiations open… don’t get hung up on ‘beating you opponent’ over just one aspect of the deal.

This is where many people get frustrated and either walk away after getting so close or just give in as a result of the frustration. Negotiating a car deal is a package not just a selling price. Sure the selling price is the focal point, but you have to give the appearance that you are offering some concession as well. In fact, as your target price get within range, don’t just agree on the price and then begin the delivery process. If you do… you will be in a much weaker position to negotiate any extras you may want such as that extended warranty… you see… make sure all potential aspects of the deal are in place before you shake hands on the price.

Christmas is in the air and it is time again to give your pet a treat by giving him holiday pet clothing. And what could be the best Christmas present for your pooch?

You can make your choice from a variety of holiday dog clothing. It could either be a dog sweater, a dog snowsuit or a dog raincoat. These items are suitable gift you could give your canine friend. Yes, they are indeed appropriate for the holiday. Christmas falls on a winter season and so your dog needs something to keep him warm. A sweater will be useful when he is indoors. A dog snowsuit and a dog raincoat will protect her from cold and snow when he is outdoors.

Here are some facts that you should know about your pet:

• It is true that dog’s hair protect them from cold. But not all the time. In periods of extreme temperature your dog will still feel the cold. This will make them vulnerable to catching cold and chills and worst hypothermia. So you should take extra precautions during cold season especially winter. A holiday dog sweater will be a wise present to keep him warm indoor.

• Not all breed of dogs are gifted with thick fur. Some breeds are born with less hair and this makes them feel cold easily compared to those with thick hair.

• Small breed of dogs get cold easily compared to large breeds. Because small breeds have lesser body fat, they are also vulnerable to cold. Examples of this breed are Chihuahua and miniature Poodle. These kinds of dogs really love to curl themselves on your sofa or prefer to lie by your side to keep themselves warm.

If your dog falls into one of these categories, then you should consider buying him a holiday pet clothing that will keep him warm. There are plenty of designs that you can choose from but make sure that your choice is made of the appropriate fabric. Holiday dog clothing made of fleece will be enough to provide your pet the extra warmth he needs.

When you’re choosing a driving present, although it’s a generous gift and everyone likes fast rally cars, you want to make sure you get the present they want the most!

So you’ve got to think (it’s the thought counts – awww!) about what driving level the person you’re buying the rally driving present for is at? If they’ve never been rallying before, you want to go for the beginners courses which are in “slower” rally cars, that are much easier and the person you’re buying it for will probably get more satisfaction out of, rather than being slightly frightened at the adrenalin rush of trying to go as fast as possible round trees and rocks!

If they’ve done some rallying / racing before then you might want to go for a more advanced rally driving present where they get to drive faster cars! Or they might be an experienced driver who does a lot of driving for example like someone who always drives a van in the day or maybe even a truck driver, and so they know some basics already. They might also be interested in rallying so you could ask them; “what’s your all time favourite rally car?” If they answer Ford Escort Mark 2, Subaru Impreza or Mitsubishi Evo (which is likely!) then choose a present that has that car to drive in it. They’ll be delighted, because some people never get the privilege of doing the incredibly exciting thing of driving your all time dream rally car!

Perhaps they / you own a 4 x 4, or live in a place where 4 x 4′s are useful or maybe even someone who has come off the road at some point (especially in the extreme snowy climate we must all remember right now!) and they want some training in off road driving. Most rally schools have 4 x 4′s like Land Rovers for example and highly trained and experienced instructors to go with them, so it’s a safe bet to buy a 4 x 4 driving present for someone who is in some way interested in 4 x 4′s. 4 x 4 driving presents are mostly cheaper than the rally ones anyway, and they can be considered more “beginner” activities because they are slower, but they can also be more challenging on the advanced courses.

Either way, your loved one / friend or you will have the ride of your life when you purchase a rally driving present! Life’s too fast, so don’t let it pass you by booking today to get a highly valuable skill that can save lives and accidents, and build huge assuring confidence!
