COMMERCIAL NEGOTIATION - RONO™ BUSINESS COACHING RESOURCE

Based on its extensive experience in commercialisation processes in the resource sector, Ecco developed and trademarked a commercial negotiation business coaching model called RONO™.  The premise of the RONO™ model is that  to achieve true and rightful value in your negotiation of any high value/low volume commercial transaction, organisations need to have strategies in place, not limited to just the negotiation process, but covering the wider commercialisation process,

In 2023, Ecco launched a new website, RONOSTRATEGIES.COM, as a coaching resource for corporations and SME's,for adding value and setting a standard for negotiating high value/low volume commercial transactions. 

The value of RONOSTRATEGIES.COM to corporations and SME's is that it offers experienced based guidelines and strategies, guiding you through the wider commercialisation process to optimise your negotiation outcome and, most importantly, to ensure business sustainability.
