Help Head of Partnerships, Head of BD, and Founder-CEOs answer four questions when a prospective partner shows up: 1. Is this a real partner, or someone hunting preferential terms without independent demand? 2. At what tier should we sign them? (Referral / Reseller / OEM / SI-Consulting / Strategic Alliance) 3. What's the 90-day joint GTM plan that proves the partnership works? 4. What revshare makes economic sense — and at what point does the partnership beat direct sale?
