'that's a deal' = a business or a personal agreement
Example: A: So our 2 companies will do business in future?
B: That's a deal.
'When going for' = striving to achieve something

That's a deal! It's a deal! can be said either way

More accurately, it means "when attempting to" or "when pursuing"
Example: "When going for a job, it pays to learn about the employer first."

That's a deal, means agreed! or That's an agreement! Deal=Agreement=Contract
Example:
1stPerson: "I'll help you with your homework, if you help me rake the yard."
2nd Person: "It's a deal!"
