This is the “monkey on their back” that they want you to carry around for them. A classic example is the person who says, “I have only got ?10,000 in my budget”. This is often used tactically to force a price reduction. Here is what you can do. When one side says “I have only ?10,000 in budget”, look concerned and say something like: “That is a problem.

If the objection is genuine and the budget figure is correct, you must try to look for an alternative that meets your needs as well as theirs. If they genuinely can only spend ?10,000 that is not a tactic but the truth. In dealing with tactics the first decision you must make is whether it is a tactic or a genuine situation.

One way of countering this tactic is to say before the bargaining begins: “If this proposal meets your needs, is there any reason you would not give me
