Are you building the
partner ecosystem
your customers
need?
Partner recruitment is about more than adding logos to your program.
Different customer needs require different partners. The partners that can open doors in a new market may be different from those that can generate demand, influence a buying decision, implement your solution, develop complementary technology, or manage the ongoing customer relationship.
Effective recruitment starts with what your customers are trying to accomplish and the role partners can play in helping them get there. From there, you can determine the capabilities, relationships, market presence, and business models your ecosystem needs—and which partners are best positioned to bring them.

Recruit partners who perform
The partners you recruit shape your ecosystem performance. Selecting for fit is only part of the equation. The right partners also have the opportunity, motivation, and ability to build a successful business with you.
Our Customer First, Partner Next™ approach starts with the customers you want to serve and what they are looking to accomplish. We then identify the capabilities, relationships, market position, and business model partners need to play a meaningful role in delivering for those customers.
That creates a direct connection between whom you recruit, why you recruit them, and what you can accomplish together.
From recruitment to productivity
A signed partner agreement doesn’t create value on its own. The value comes when partners put their capabilities, relationships, and resources to work for your customers and your business.
That means recruitment cannot be disconnected from what happens next.
We design recruitment around the complete path to productivity:
Recruit for the Business
You Want to Build
The best prospective partner isn’t necessarily the biggest company, the best-known brand, or the partner with the longest customer list.
It’s the partner with the right combination of customer relationships, capabilities, market opportunity, strategic fit, and motivation to build a successful business with you.
Bodine & Co. helps you define what that partner looks like, determine where to focus your recruitment efforts, give prospective partners a compelling reason to engage, and create the path from recruitment to productivity.
