HOW WE WORK

The Negotiation Operating System.

A practical five-part system built around your deals, your commercial constraints and the moments where margin is most exposed.

01

Deal & Deal-Breaker Triage

Purpose

Find where margin is actually at risk before the buyer sets the frame.

Working session

Risk-map the active pipeline and identify the deals where margin, timing or leverage need immediate attention.

Output

Prioritised deal triage and intervention plan.

02

Position & NBA Build

Purpose

Define your walkaway, leverage and winning position before pressure arrives.

Working session

Align the target, fallback, walkaway, buyer alternatives and the evidence supporting your position.

Output

One-page position and BATNA brief.

03

Give-Get Playbooks

Purpose

Trade, never give — structured concession frameworks with reciprocal value.

Working session

Build a ranked inventory of concessions and reciprocal asks, with authority and sequencing agreed.

Output

Role-specific give-get playbook.

04

Procurement & Renewal Prep

Purpose

Capped-increase strategy, a value-defence narrative and the five-second pause.

Working session

Rehearse pressure moments, finance objections, uplift framing and the language your team will use in the room.

Output

Procurement and renewal rehearsal pack.

05

Live Deal Coaching + Analytics

Purpose

Real-time coaching with reporting on discount depth, win rate, ACV and margin held.

Working session

Coach live deals, inspect movement and turn outcomes into a measurable management rhythm.

Output

Deal coaching cadence and margin dashboard.

FOUNDER-LED

Advice stays connected to the live deal.

There is no handoff from senior pitch team to junior delivery team. Dean works directly with revenue leadership and the sellers carrying the number.

THE NEXT MOVE

Your margin is decided at the negotiating table.

Let’s pressure-test your live negotiations and build the discipline that holds your price.
