Shear Line: Negotiation Mastery – Episode 116: The Relative Value of Gift Giving

Описание: As Season One of Shear Line: Negotiation Mastery comes to a close and we wrap up 2025, this final episode explores a simple but powerful idea. Value is not absolute. It is relative.

In this holiday conversation, Eirik is joined by Jay Billiet of Jay J. Billiet Interiors, as well as Peter Ronningen and Brendan Williamson of the Excelsior Team at BHS, to examine gift giving as a real world case study in relative value. Why do some gifts land perfectly while others miss completely? What makes a small or unexpected gift feel deeply meaningful? And what do these moments reveal about how people assign value, emotionally and rationally?

Through personal stories, humor, and a few moments of self-awareness, the group connects holiday gift giving to the core principles of collaborative negotiation. Value lives in meaning, usefulness, timing, and emotional relevance. Whether across a closing table or a living room floor covered in silk bows and wrapping paper, value is created when people feel understood and significant.

A very special thank you to all of you who helped make Shear Line a success in our First Season including our INCREDIBLE listening and viewing audience, our Dream Team of Lina and Ray, The MoRE Network Family, Matt Leone and the entire Marketing Team, and our inspirational Leader, Bess Freedman. We return in January with Season 2, so BUCKLE UP!

Filmed at Brown Harris Stevens’ Studio 1873, Part of the Mastery of Real Estate (MORE) Network.
