Herausforderungen

As the organization expanded across the GCC, managing partner performance and engagement became increasingly complex. The challenges included:

• Low early-stage deal visibility, with limited incentive for partners to register opportunities early

• Inconsistent partner performance, with top partners excelling while mid-tier partners remained disengaged

• Skill gaps across partner ecosystem, impacting service quality and solution positioning

• Limited participation in joint marketing efforts, reducing reach into strategic accounts

• Partner focus on deal closure over customer success, affecting renewals and expansion opportunities

• Slow penetration into new verticals and territories, limiting regional growth potential

These challenges constrained partner-sourced revenue and slowed ecosystem-led expansion.
