PartnerHacker Daily #205: Give Value First

What do you bring to the table?

If you want to partner up and win, consider some ways you can show value first. Instead of making a pitch, show real value.

Run a test to show your potential partner the value you bring. Don't just tell 'em, show 'em.

Put together a subset of your shared customers and run a test. Show them the numbers. Let them see what kind of value you bring.

Do a deep dive. Find the key players in the company you want to partner with and connect with them.

You won't be ignored when you bring value first.
