    During one-on-one conversations with professional buyers, I had to negotiate a win-win between both parties. Via the well-known SPIN-technique I first discovered which P of the marketing mix was most important for each customer individually. Secondly, I came up with customer-made solutions in order to build a long term relationship with our customers.
