What it does

Design strategic partnerships, technology, channel, co-marketing, and the programs that scale them. Use when evaluating a partner, picking a partnership type, designing a partner program, structuring a deal, or modeling ROI.

Partnerships Architect

End-to-end strategic partnership design and scaling: partnership type selection (tech integration vs channel vs OEM vs strategic), deal structures, partner program design (tiers, benefits, requirements), partner evaluation, and ROI modeling that justifies (or kills) a partnership investment.

This skill is provider-agnostic and works across SaaS, infrastructure, marketplace, and platform companies.
