Across the programs we measure, the top quartile shares three habits:
1 |
They report revenue, not activity
Partner-sourced and partner-influenced dollars, never partner counts and MOUs.
|
2 |
They design before they staff
Overlap mapping, co-sell process and executive sponsorship exist before the hire.
|
3 |
One executive owns the number
Partner revenue never floats between sales and marketing unowned.
|
None of those require budget. All of them require deciding to run partnerships as a measured channel. That is the thread Accelerate pulls all day.
