Expert at simplifying deals

Are complex business processes and protracted deal negotiations holding your company back? In today’s fast-paced business environment, cumbersome deal-making and one-sided legal documents can be major stumbling blocks, leading to lost opportunities, strained client relationships, and a drain on your resources.

You want to build strong relationships with your clients and suppliers to create a strong foundation for business success.

Imagine the frustration of watching deals slip through your fingers because of convoluted processes and endless back-and-forth negotiations. The time and energy wasted in navigating these labyrinths could be better spent on growing your business and strengthening client relationships. The cost of sticking with the status quo isn’t just measured in lost revenue; it’s the missed opportunities and the mounting stress that come with it.

I’m Sarah Fox, your guide to transforming your business processes and deal-making strategies. With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in streamlining complex processes… making deal negotiations smoother, quicker, and more effective. My approach is tailored to your unique business needs, ensuring that you not only close deals faster but also build stronger, more productive relationships with your clients and suppliers.

How I work with you

I work with you to tailor my expertise to reflect your audience – their contracting problems, their language or culture and their own skills. I’m nosey so I arrive early and stay late so I can draw on content from other speakers at your event to reinforce their messages. I know process and law can be perceived as dry and dusty so I use props, humour, visual slides and stories to illustrate how we get it so wrong, but more importantly, how your audience can get it right.

‘Everyone needs a Sarah Fox in their pocket. She over-delivered’ Olga Geidane, booker

This is YOUR event. So if you want:

  • A briefing chat before you decide if I am right for your event – just give me a call
  • An entertaining keynote in the slot straight after lunch – you got it
  • An interview, podcast, video trailer or article before your event – we’d be happy to send that
  • Data collection before or during the event to dig deeper into your problems – you can have that
  • A pdf of my slides or, even better, copies of one of my books to give your delegates – just ask. We can even provide custom prints.

Talks, themes and titles

I will tailor my topics and titles to suit your audience and event. To give you a flavour, visit topics to see content I’ve previously delivered.
