Thanks for your input. I think what you mean is the "illusion" of win-win. He is saying, every point of contest is either a win or lose based on your targets. In negotiations, a lose doesn't mean you don't make money or lose money. What it means is, when you go into a negotiation, you have a target, then you have a compromise position to salvage the deal. If you come out negative, the deal obviously doesn't go through. In short, there is no win-win, there is only both sides compromise and didn't gain much, or one side gained, the other compromised more. If both parties could compromise and gain much, then there is another "party" that "lost" ie possibly the consumer. I believe this is what he meant and I agree with him. Note: there is a negotiation tactic that draws attention away from salient points then give in to those to create rapport and compromise. I'm referring to the important ones which impact $$. The ones that usually get deals stuck.

I understand what Donald Trump is saying with "there is no win win deal," but I don't agree with him. If you understand the true meaning of the trader principle, every negotiation is a win-win for both parties. Otherwise you wouldn't have a deal in the first place.
