The two primary negotiation strategies are bargaining and collaborating. If I were either Suzie or Johnny, I would use a mix and match of both the strategies but would give more stress on collaborating. There are two point of views here. If I am Johnny then my aim is to reduce the cost and convince Suzie of the $3000 budget. So, I would have to bargain hard. But yet again Suzie is my fiancée so I have a personal relationship at stake too and so I would stress on the strategy of collaboration as well.
