iNegotiate, a free Android Application, makes it easy to do.

First

iNegotiate now supports pre-defined Rules





We added support for pre-defined rules!


You can now pre define rules to accept/ reject/ ignore any future offers or counter-offers you might receive in the future. This will help address multiple offers with minimal effort.

Pre-defined rules will dictate whether iNegotiate automatically accepts/ reject/ ignore specific incoming offers or  counter-offers.


To add a pre-defined rule:

  1. Click on the "Rules" icon on the iNegotiate home page
  2. Click the "+" icon on the top right corner to add a new rule 
  3. In the "Add Rule" page: 
    1. Select Rule type from the drop down list ( e.g Range, Product/ Contact etc)
    2. Select a specific product that will be affected by this rule (you can also select "All products")
    3. Select a specific contact whose offers will be affected by this rule ( you can also select "All contacts")
    4. In rule type = "Range", enter a lower limit (e.g. "From") and an upper limit (e.g. "To"), representing the price/ amount range that you are interested in.
    5. Select the resulting action: Accept/ Reject/ Ignore
Example: 
Type: "Range"
Product: "Product 1"
Contact: "All contacts"
Range: From: 0  To: 100
Action: Reject

The above rule, will result in iNegotiate automatically rejecting offers and counter-offers made by all contacts, for Product 1, and are lower than $100. In other words, the seller is not interested in offers that are lower than $100 for Product 1


We hope you enjoy pre-defined rules
Happy Holidays

How can iNegotiate help you?

Many people ask me "why do I need iNegotiate?" or: "How can iNegotiate help me?"

It's pretty simple actually:

Say you walk into your favorite clothing store, and you see an awesome sweater, that looks absolutely perfect!. But the problem is - it costs too much.  Had the price been a bit lower - you would have purchased it, but at the current price,  it is simply not possible.

Are you able to go to the store owner and ask them to drop the price? They would probably laugh you out of the store or suggest other product that are in your price range - but really what you wanted.

Can you negotiate for a better price? Sure you can! but the problem is that there might be other people in the store and if the store owner drops the price for you, s/he might be forced to do that for other clients as well - not the best position to be in! Ultimately the store owner will politely refuse

So what can you do?  You need a discrete and an efficient way to bargain for the price of the sweater?

That's where iNegotiate comes in. All you need to do is download iNegotiate from Google Play, make an offer to the store owner, take a pic of the product and indicate how much you are willing to pay for it  , and await for the store owner's response.

The store owner will receive your offer via email or nfc.  S/he would be able to review and respond to your offer discretely - which increases the chances that s/he would say yes - WIN-WIN.

We would love to receive your feedback (email inegotiatedevteam@gmail.com)

Happy Holidays
