HOW CAN I HELP? > STRATEGIC CLIENT & PARTNER ENABLEMENT

Strategic Client & Partner Enablement

Build strong relationships by solving real problems

  • Turn relationships into results. I help teams convert ambiguous expectations into value-alignment frameworks that move executive conversations to concrete outcomes—using insight-driven materials and structured feedback loops. From launch to renewal to expansion, I bring structure, storytelling, and strategy to every interaction.

    • Enterprise complexity. A key account feels neglected or misunderstood—and risk is rising.

    • Value communication gap. Your team struggles to articulate impact to decision-makers.

    • Post-workshop drift. Great session, but outcomes aren’t sticking.

    • Reactive health. Customer health reporting is inconsistent or lagging indicators only.

    • Exec-level storytelling. You need insight translated into sponsor-ready narratives.

    • Proactive health, not firefighting. Make risk visible early with leading indicators.

    • Clear value narrative. Tie user and business outcomes to executive priorities.

    • Stakeholder orchestration. Right message, right level, right cadence.

    • From workshop to workflow. Convert outputs into owners, dates, and success metrics.

    • Expansion readiness. Surface unmet needs and sequence credible next bets.

  • Executive Sponsor Program Setup (4–6 weeks)
    Stakeholder mapping → sponsor roles/cadence → value hypothesis → Executive Brief template → quarterly EBR engine (metrics, stories, asks) → pilot with 1–2 strategic accounts.

    Quarterly Value Review (QVR) Engine (2–3 weeks)
    Define health model (leading + lagging) → build scorecard & narrative → align CSM/SE/Product inputs → first QVR deck with decisions, risks, and next-bet opportunities.

    • Relationship map & stakeholder intel (influence, interests, risks).

    • Value hypothesis → proof points (metrics + customer stories).

    • EBR/QBR deck templates and sponsor one-pagers.

    • Health score model & dashboard (leading + lagging indicators).

    • Success plan (owners, cadence, decision log).

    • Expansion opportunity backlog with evidence and next steps.

    • Who’s in the loop: Account/CS lead, Executive sponsor, Product/Design partner, Sales/SE; loop in Finance/Legal as needed.

    • Typical timelines: 2–3 weeks (QVR engine) • 4–6 weeks (Sponsor program) • 1–2 weeks (Renewal/Expansion blitz).

    • A 5% increase in retention can lift profit 25–95%. (Bain & Company)

    • Only 23% of B2B buyers say vendors understand their business needs. (Gartner)

    • Customer-centric organizations are ~60% more profitable than those that aren’t. (Deloitte)

    • Strong internal–external alignment can cut time-to-contract and raise renewals/expansion by ~30% in enterprise SaaS. (Forrester)
