Thoughts:
“Consistency is the loudest negotiation strategy most people never use.”
“The secret to lower cost isn’t asking – it’s showing you’ll come back.”
“If your order history doesn’t speak for you, your price won’t change.”
Buying in bulk doesn’t make you smart.
Negotiating with proof of volume does. Don’t get it? I’ll explain.
Most people don’t get that…
And that’s why they’re stuck paying the same high price as everyone else – whether they’re buying 2 pieces or 200.
A student of ours started buying one of our hot products – 50 pieces at a time.
His supplier charged him ₦2,800 per piece.
After 3 weeks of consistent sales, he bumped it up to 100 pieces.
Same supplier. Same product.
Guess what?
₦2,150 per piece. For the exact same thing.
That ₦650 difference doesn’t sound like much… until you multiply it by 100.
Then you realize: Damn. That’s ₦65,000 profit saved… per order.
Now imagine you’re doing 3 of those a month. That’s nearly ₦200k extra margin.
Then 1000 products later – ₦650,000 profit saved
And he didn’t touch the product.
Just used volume and timing to negotiate better.
Too many new Ecommerce owners think bulk buying is the hack.
It’s not.
The hack is bulk buying consistently.
The real flex is repeat purchase frequency.
That’s what makes a supplier take you seriously.
That’s what gives you power in negotiation.
Buy once and disappear? You’re a one-night stand.
Buy weekly like clockwork? You’re family.
How to make your supplier give you free money.
1. The “Pattern Buyer” Advantage
Suppliers don’t respect buyers who appear once in 3 weeks and ghost.
But the moment you start ordering weekly or bi-weekly – same item, steady pace – they start calling you to check if you’re ready.
This pattern gives you leverage.
It tells them, “I’m serious. I’m moving volume. I’m not just testing.”
And with leverage comes options: cheaper price, better payment terms, faster priority delivery.
Want them to chase you? Become a pattern buyer.
Next: How people negotiate wrong and what to do instead…
2. The “Silent Anchor” Method
Here’s what most people do:
They beg.
Or they whine.
Or they throw all their cards on the table too early.
Stop doing that.
The real negotiation happens with receipts.
Screenshots of last week’s orders.
Repeat requests.
Past delivery history.
Instead of arguing price, show them consistency.
Say:
“I plan to keep buying 100 weekly. But I need you to bring it down a bit so I can move more.”
Boom.
They see you’re building volume, not just chasing cheap price.
That alone makes them more open to better deals, because they see future orders, not just today’s gain.
Why most people still lose money even after negotiating…
3. Bulk ≠ Profit (If You’re Buying Wrong Products)
Buying 500 pieces of a product nobody wants?
That’s not a discount. That’s self-destruction.
This is where many people fumble.
They hear “bulk buying reduces price” and forget that volume only works if the product moves fast.
