Why is Partnering Important?
The rules are changing fast - Customers as Partners and Partners as Customers are greying traditional partnering and alliance approaches
The proliferation of partner business models and types require new partner programs and engagement approaches
Greater “share of wallet“ and improved dialogue with your partners also helps develop retention programs that sustain and nurture higher-performing partners.
Utilization of more current measurement systems provides better visibility on key partnership metrics of deal structuring, revenue, retention, recruitment, and ROI.
