Deals Quotes

We don't have much in the way of a business strategy. Like no business plan. Which I say to torment all my friends who are VCs or MBAs. That's always entertaining. The deal is, it's a mixture of luck and persistence.
-- Deals Quotes by Craig Newmark

A friendship founded on business is a good deal better than a business founded on friendship.
-- Deals Quotes by John D. Rockefeller

Ethics or simple honesty is the building blocks upon which our whole society is based, and business is a part of our society, and it's integral to the practice of being able to conduct business, that you have a set of honest standards. And it's much easier to do business with someone when you look them in the eye and say, "This is what we're going to do," and you understand what you each mean, and you can go away and get it done.
-- Deals Quotes by Kerry Stokes

People get caught up in wonderful, eye-catching pitches, but they don't do enough to close the deal. It's no good if you don't make the sale. Even if your foot is in the door or you bring someone into a conference room, you don't win the deal unless you actually get them to sign on the dotted line.
-- Deals Quotes by Donald Trump

When I started out in business, I spent a great deal of time researching every detail that might be pertinent to the deal I was interested in making. I still do the same today. People often comment on how quickly I operate, but the reason I can move quickly is that I’ve done the background work first, which no one usually sees. I prepare myself thoroughly, and then when it is time to move ahead, I am ready to sprint.
-- Deals Quotes by Donald Trump

Believe in yourself.. in all you can do.. and for you, the deals will start to work in your favor. You need to be open to such deals, and they will come, I assure you.
-- Deals Quotes by Ivana Trump

I have found no greater satisfaction than achieving success through honest dealing and strict adherence to the view that, for you to gain, those you deal with should gain as well.
-- Deals Quotes by Alan Greenspan

I don't want to be just a voice on the phone. I have to get to know these guys face-to-face and develop a sincere relationship. That way, if we run into problems in a deal, it doesn't get adversarial. We trust each other and have the confidence we can work things out.
-- Deals Quotes by Wayne Huizenga

The nature of any human being, certainly anyone on Wall Street, is 'the better deal you give the deals, the worse deal it is for you'.
-- Deals Quotes by Bernard Madoff

Only free men can negotiate; prisoners cannot enter into contracts. Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.
-- Deals Quotes by Nelson Mandela

I don't mind paying people more for something if we're getting more. But just to change a deal because you're greedy and you want more? No. I'm not gonna go along with that.
-- Deals Quotes by Vince McMahon
