The BOLD Hotseat · before it counts

You already know which conversation it is. Sit in the hot seat before it counts.

For $39, you practice the one hard money conversation you have been putting off. Then you bring it to a live night where a trial attorney plays the other side.

Take a seat
50 seats. When they are gone, they are gone.

The other side takes your chair tonight. Philip takes three on the night.

Everyone gets a hot seat in the practice round, about 20 minutes on your own. Three people get Philip's on the night. He picks them from what you send in. Hot seats are never sold.

On your own · about 20 minutes

What happens tonight

  1. 1
    You write four lines about your conversation. How you will show up, what you want, what leverage you have, and what you will do if they say no.
  2. 2
    The other side pushes back. You say your ask. You get the answer you are afraid of. Nobody is watching.
  3. 3
    You see what the other side was holding. Their pressures, and where they would have moved.
  4. 4
    You run it again. You see what changed.

What happens on the night

  1. 1
    Fifty people, each with a real conversation. A raise. A rate. A quote you need to hold. An invoice nobody has paid.
  2. 2
    Philip teaches one idea. Then everyone runs a round with it.
  3. 3
    Three people take the hot seat. Philip plays the other side himself. Everyone else watches how it turns.
  4. 4
    You leave with one page. Your ask, in your own words, and a date for the real conversation.

What it is not

  • No scripts. Nobody writes your lines.
  • Not a webinar. You do the work.
  • Not a stack of videos. This is practice, with a person on the other side.

Who is on the other side

Trial attorney · former Air Force missile launch officer · professor · author of The BOLD Negotiator

Philip Danielson spent years in a missile launch capsule. In that job, nothing was done for the first time when it counted. Every move was run in a simulator first, and then graded. He brings that rule to the conversations that decide your income.

Take a seat · Wednesday, November 4

Tell Philip which conversation you are bringing.

Three lines is enough. Who is on the other side, what you want from them, and what is in the way. This is how he picks the three hot seats on the night, so say the real thing.

Your seat is $39. After you send this, you will be taken to the checkout.

50 seats. Live online, Wednesday, November 4, 7:30 PM Eastern / 5:30 PM Mountain. You get the link by email.

Wednesday night. Fifty chairs. One conversation you have been putting off.
