Design partner programs for startups: partner ICP, co-marketing offers, referral mechanics, integration partners, attribution, enablement, and compensation. Use when building affiliates, referral partners, ecosystem channels, agencies, or integration-led growth.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Partner Programs

## Overview

Partners extend GTM reach without adding headcount — but most partner programs
are "sign up here" portals that generate zero revenue. The mistake: treating
partners as a distribution channel instead of a co-GTM motion that requires
enablement, economics, and active management. This skill covers partner type
selection, economic model design, tier architecture, recruitment, enablement,
and the operational infrastructure to make partners actually produce revenue.

## When to Use

Trigger phrases: "build a partner program", "set up integration partnerships",
"create an agency channel", "design co-marketing partnerships", "reseller
program", "technology alliance", "partner economics", "nearbound strategy",
"deal registration"

## Authoritative Foundations

a partner or with partner validation. The question isn't whether to have
partners — it's what kind.

The most effective GTM motion for B2B SaaS today: leverage partners, customers,

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add leadmagic/gtm-skills/partner-programs@sha256:ba71f39d3fcfbedc

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
