AI Monkeys' Approach (GEaaS)

  1. Channel Strategy Blueprint: Defined partner types, value tiers, ICP alignment, and co-selling scenarios. Developed a “4-Tier Partner Framework” Referral, Reseller, Strategic, and Solution Partners.
  2. Partner Program Architecture: Created the entire partner program from scratch onboarding, enablement, incentive structures, partner SLAs, and joint marketing agreements.
  3. Partner Tooling & Enablement: Set up a lightweight Partner CRM and Portal (HubSpot); prepared co-brandable assets, pitch decks, pricing sheets, and enablement workflows.
  4. Recruitment & Activation: Reached out to 100+ firms; onboarded 6 active channel partners and 2 referral partners across the UK and USA. Designed 1:1 onboarding sessions and quarterly growth targets.
  5. Revenue Operations & Governance: Built a partner pipeline tracker, commission tracker, and monthly partner performance reporting dashboard.
