If I'm dealing with you on a piece of property, and you offer to buy it at XX amount of dollars, I will tell you immediately what I want for it, if you say no or make a counter offer then we negotiate
What I don't do is walk away and have my cousin tweet out that your offer isn't good enough
If I did that I'm pretty sure you'd tell me I was being an jerk for allowing that to go public and any deal would be off the table, in fact I'd almost guarantee you would'nt be saying what a master manipulator of social media I was
that again is just for illustration purposes and obviously not a real scenario
but seriously this whole Nonis gives Dreger inside info is a myth created by Dreger using that distant familial connection to make it seem plausible
In your scenario there's only the two of us.
In the NHL there's 28 other GMs.
Using your scenario, based on how much the rest of the market was offering, I'd increase my offer if I feel that property has enough value and I was low-balling you. But if I know you won't keep your property (I doubt the Leafs want to keep Franson) and nobody else is going to offer anything higher, why would increase my offer?
They are men trying to run a business. They aren't going to complain that their feelings are hurt because you went out and increased demanded by creating better awareness.
The difference is, I WOULD be impressed by you. I guess that's where we differ.
