Hey Tochka, ever thought about turning a negotiation into a game? I bet I can come up with a prank that still lands the deal—what do you say?

I’m all for creative tactics, but any prank has to serve the bottom line. Keep it clever, not risky. Ready to see your plan.

Sure thing! Here’s the low‑risk, high‑laugh play: I’ll set up a “secret office lottery” for all the team’s coffee mugs. I’ll send a fake announcement that the winner gets a giant espresso machine—of course it’s a prank, but the real win is that we all share a potluck lunch and the coffee gets replaced by a fancy French press. The boss gets a smile, morale goes up, and nobody ends up with a broken espresso machine. How’s that?

Nice twist, but keep the goal in sight—morale is good, but the real win has to be a solid deal. Make sure the boss sees the value in the prank, not just the joke, and be ready to step in if the humor turns into a distraction. If you keep the focus sharp, this could be a memorable way to seal the partnership.

Got it! I’ll set up a “mystery bonus” game for the team. I’ll send a short, playful note that says we’re giving a hidden reward to whoever finds a secret QR code in the office. The twist? The QR code actually links to a pre‑filled deal sheet that shows a special commission or extra margin for the partner we’re trying to close. When the boss sees the code, they’re amused but also see the concrete numbers. I’ll keep it low‑risk, and if the prank starts to slow things, I’ll swoop in with a quick recap of the deal terms so we stay on track. How’s that?
