  The New Rules of Negotiation: Evolve or Be Slaughtered with Derrick Chevalier

  Sep 30, 202656 min

  Send us Fan Mail Everything in life is a negotiation—but are you still negotiating by outdated rules? In this episode of the Billion Dollar Banker Podcast , Nicole Perrone sits down with Derrick Chevalier , negotiation strategist, author, speaker, and creator of the SNUF negotiation framework , to challenge some of the most common assumptions about negotiation. Derrick explains why there is no universal script, tactic, or “magic phrase” that works in every negotiation. Instead, effective negotiators learn to understand the person across from them, test their assumptions, identify what they don’t know, and choose the right strategy for the situation. Nicole and Derrick bring these concepts into the real world with examples from mortgage lending, real estate, sales, pricing objections, client relationships, and closing deals . They also explore how AI is changing negotiation and why professionals need to continually evolve their skills as technology and communication habits change. You'll hear insights on: • Why “win-win” may not tell the whole story • Skill vs. leverage in a negotiation • How to handle price objections • Why relationships and trust can matter more than price • The importance of testing assumptions • Why negotiation requires a toolbox—not a single script • How communication changes across phone, email, text, Zoom, and in-person conversations • How AI could reshape the future of negotiation Derrick also discusses his book Evolve or Be Slaughtered and why he believes becoming a better negotiator requires ongoing practice, education, and a willingness to rethink what you've already learned. If you work in sales, real estate, mortgage lending, business, or entrepreneurship , this conversation will make you think differently about how you communicate, influence, negotiate, and close.
