Negotiation Practice Planning
Negotiation Planning Paper Example:
BATNA: If I am not able to close a deal for Moms.com my BATNA would be to license a different show from another producer. The value of this show would be $3M which is significantly less than Moms.com. In addition, if I were to license a different show it probably wouldn’t increase my station’s audience share as much either.
Reservation Price: My reservation price for this negotiation will be $60k per episode. The reason why is because even if I pay $60k per episode Moms.com should still end up being profitable for my station.
