Strategic Intent

What do you most want PartnerMatch AI™ to help you accomplish? *Pick the single outcome that matters most right now. This shapes how your readout is prioritized.Understand my partner-readinessIdentify new partner categories / typesPrioritize a short-list of specific partner targetsPrepare for an upcoming event / campaignOther

Which ONE outcome would create the biggest impact for your business if partnerships improved it in the next 6–12 months? *Force-rank to one.

If partnerships had to double your revenue in 18 months, what single constraint would most likely stop that from happening?Think structurally — team, process, product, market access, or trust. One constraint only.

Offering & Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)

Describe your core value proposition *Answer these four things: Who is it for? What measurable outcome do you deliver? What do you solve better than alternatives? What makes your approach different? Write for business impact — not product features.

⚠️ This is one of the most important inputs in the entire assessment.

How to choose:

SaaS / Software: subscription or licensed product
Services / Consulting: human-delivered expertise or execution
Marketplace / Platform: connects buyers and sellers
Infrastructure / API: embedded or developer-focused capability
Logistics / operations: you physically execute or manage operations

Tip: If you sell software, do NOT choose logistics or services just because that’s the industry you serve.

Which ONE category best describes your primary revenue model? *Select how you primarily make money — not the industry your customers are in. A logistics software company is still ‘SaaS / Software,’ not ‘Logistics.SaaS / SoftwareServices / Consulting (B2B professional services)Hospitality, venues & eventsFood & beverage (restaurants, catering, CPG)Local / field services (trades, home services, on-site)Media, content & live experienceHealthcare services (clinics, dental, veterinary)Logistics / supply chain servicesHardware / devicesData / analyticsFintech / paymentsMarketplace / platformInfrastructure / API / embedded services

If Enterprise, do you typically sell into:Single departmentMulti-departmentGlobal rollout

If Mixed, Briefly describe your most common deal type. *For example: 60% mid-market manufacturers, 40% enterprise retail. Which segment drives the most revenue?

Industry focus (choose up to 3)Select the industries you SELL INTO (your customers), not your internal company classification.

Primary industry (most important) *Your #1 industry focus today.

Secondary industry (optional)Choose a different industry than your primary. Add a second industry if it meaningfully represents your go-to-market.

Tertiary industry (optional)Choose a different industry than your primary/secondary.

⚠️ This is one of the highest-impact inputs in your assessment. Use this structure:

Industry / vertical: who you sell to
Company size: revenue or employees
Primary buyer: who owns budget or decision
Buying trigger: what initiates the search
Why deals stall: where friction occurs
Where partners help: what partners unlock

Tip: Focus on real deal conditions, not generic descriptions.

SIGNALING & FILTERING

Who are your BEST existing partners today? (3–10 companies)List 3–10 of your best current or recent partners (logos you’d happily work with again). We use these as positive signals to find look-alike partners—not to suggest the same companies again.
