　　推销产品时，总免不了要‘老王卖瓜’自夸一番。实用的句型有："I'm confident in saying that we arethe most suitable for your needs."。

　　此句型适用于正式的商谈场合，表示自己是对方的最佳拍档，并愿竭尽所能谈笔公平的买卖。

　　这个句型为正式用语，语气平铺直叙，意思是要告诉对方所提出的条件太苛，己方不愿再考虑;同时也暗示对方要作些让步。

　　●　提出条件

　　1. Here's how you can demonstrate commitment to this deal.

　　2. Here's how you can show serious intent.

　　3. Here's how you can show your support.

　　4. Here's how you can show you're committed to this deal.

　　正式的商业谈判中，不仅要被动地防御对方的攻势，更要会主动地提出己方的要求。

　　文中Robert很巧妙地运用了一个句型："Here's how you can demonstrate commitment to thisdeal."‘你们可以这样表示承诺(的诚意)’。说完这句话之后，就应接着提出己方的要求，且注意提出的条件应有给双方转圜的余地。
