I was having a recent conversation with a new partnership leader at a SaaS Series A startup. His objective is to scale up their partnership strategy, from referral programs and a few existing tech integrations to partnering up with “giant” corporations. He believes the startup’s strong brand should be attractive to other larger players, though this would not be enough to get the partners’ attention. We discussed ways we could build a business case to demonstrate the value they can bring to the table. Some ideas: - Define what’s important to the partner: what’s the top metric their management is focused on? - Identify existing customers who are using the partner’s products and conduct surveys to gain intel on how our combined products can better serve them - Quantify the dollar impact of the partnership on a small sample of existing overlapping customers - Identify a champion within the organization who would benefit (compensation, evaluation, career progression) from the dollar impact - Find comparable case studies of partnerships in the industry to support how the market would react Anything else missing here?

Think about the past and the present. Remember anything? Partnerships have come a long way. What used to be simple deals or co-marketing plans has turned into something much bigger: partner ecosystems. But it's 2025 so it’s not just about pooling resources anymore Now, there's a need to build connected networks where everyone brings something valuable to the table. These ecosystems thrive on trust, collaboration, and mutual growth, helping businesses scale in ways that weren’t possible before. With years in the partnership space, we've seen how powerful ecosystems can be. One partnership can spark a whole network of collaborations, giving you exponential influence and impact. The businesses that will thrive in this new era are the ones that know how to nurture these connections—not just for their own gain, but for the entire ecosystem’s success. Is your approach ready for what’s next? #partnerships #ecosystem #growth
