which i don't agree is number 9. i think we can make a deal with the price, unless
that product is fix price such as oil, gas and other

I gotta tell you I think these are words sales professionals should live by. The guy who said that number nine is wrong is the guy that gives everything away and will probably never be a long term sales professional. Negotiate product not price! I think that should be an adm to the 10 commandments!
