How do I work?
storytelling driven partnerships
The story sells the strategy, right?
But that only works if the tech and the reason behind it makes sense.
I help founders shape narratives that connect their product, partners, and audience - and make sure every integration, campaign, and collaboration fits within a clear logic.

What am I offering?
1) The Blueprint
Audit & Roadmap
A fast, high-impact engagement that gives founders and revenue leaders instant clarity.
I’ll review your current partner activity, integrations strategy, and run a founder session — then deliver a clear, step-by-step roadmap for building a scalable, revenue-driven partner program.
Perfect for:
Early-stage companies exploring partnerships or fixing what isn’t working.
2) The Build
Foundational Sprint
I’ll design your entire foundations for your partnerships engine — strategy, tiers, incentives, marketing plays, outreach frameworks, and the metrics that keep it all accountable.
You’ll leave this phase with a repeatable system built to drive revenue and support your go-to-market plan.
Perfect for:
Startups moving from concept to an actual operating partner function.
3) Fractional
Head of Partnerships
Hands-on leadership, real results.
I step in as your interim Head of Partnerships to run the strategy, systems, and delivery so you start seeing real revenue — not just activity.
I’ll build the structure, pipeline, and processes, and I can also help hire and onboard your first Partnerships Manager so the function runs smoothly once I step back.
Perfect for:
Founders who want a Head of Partnerships without the cost, risk, or commitment of a full-time hire.
about me
I’m Nate — I’ve spent the last 15 years helping startups and scaleups turn partnerships into real revenue.
I’ve built high-performing commercial partnerships with some of the world’s biggest SaaS/ tech companies (including Sage, ADP, and many more) most recently scaling Teamtailor’s partner org into a 14-person team driving 26%+ of total company revenue.
Now, I help founders build partnership functions that are clear, strategic, and built for long-term, measurable growth.

a quick PSA...
Partnerships work best when they’re built on clarity, trust, and aligned goals.
I’ll help you set up the right structure, expectations, and systems to make that happen — so you’re protected, prepared, and positioned for real results.
That said, partnerships take time to mature. They’re powerful, but they’re not instant. Growth always carries a little risk ... That’s the beautiful part of the game.
My job is to make sure you’ve got the structure and strategy to turn that risk into reward.
