I have to tell you
this was

attention to my issues was wonderful for me.
(LuAnn Freppon, Agent, Richland County)
If
you have a project idea you want
to develop,
bring it along. You will have an opportunity to get
started. We will work with your ideas; think about ways to test
the marketability of your idea, explore ways to expand your program out
of the routine and into cost recovery, think about new audiences that
might want or need your programs, consider potential community
sponsors, begin to develop preliminary
budgets.
Watch for more
workshops here and on your All-Extension listserv.
Workshop: Negotiating
Cost Recovery: Hands-on Practice
At this workshop we will practice
ways to work with customers. Several seasoned and experienced
agents will be there to “star” in the sketches, coach and offer
suggestions. We
will:
- Learn to
present
a price, keep the door open, and negotiate a cost recovery outcome.
- Share
examples of
letters of offer and will role-play some typical situations
- Be coached
and
coach others and actually practice negotiating with a few of our
typical and not-so-typical customers.
- Keep an
emphasis
on the importance of building and keeping relationships, and talking
through the situation.
There will be
time to
present situations you expect to encounter as you expand your cost
recovery efforts. We will work on developing “reasons people should say
“yes” to us.
Watch for workshop dates and locations
to be posted soon.
