In this week’s episode of the podcast, we feature highlights from peak performance coach Nigel Risner’s presentation at our last Dealmakers Retreat on how to get deals done and negotiate with vendors.

During the presentation, Nigel delivers a masterclass on why some people are more effective than others in a negotiation, how to connect with and understand the other party to get the best deal and why you need to go deeper to understand why you’re not getting the results you want. 

This is packed with valuable insights and practical suggestions that will make a difference in your next negotiation.

Here is what you will discover…

👉 The No.1 reason why people go to work (and how understanding this helps you negotiate better)

👉 Why money is not the biggest motivator for vendors (and why focusing on money is a bad idea)

👉 Why your past behaviour is the biggest driver of your future behaviour (and how to change it)

👉 Why you need to be 100% present with a vendor to close deals successfully

👉 The #1 thing that gets in the way of connecting with a vendor (this kills more deals than you know)
