The opportunity

A clear partnership standard, responsibilities and measurable execution path.

The execution reality

A useful partnership should answer five questions: who is it for, what will each party do, which product and rights are involved, where will demand go, and what result will decide the next move?

Where a partner fits

Before announcement, answer all five questions together: who is served, what each side will do, which product and rights apply, where demand will go and which result determines the next move.
