The present invention includes a customization tool for online, automated consumer-business negotiation. The customization tool includes a valuation feature for assigning values to deal terms, whether they are inherently numeric, non-inherently numeric, or business-specific; a suggestion feature for allowing a consumer to suggest a set of deal terms; and a decision-algorithm feature for making a decision on behalf of the business concerning the consumer suggestion. The suggestion feature provides the consumer with every deal term over which the business has indicated a willingness to negotiate. |
