We engaged Bryan to help us redefine our Partnerships program and expand the team's capabilities in this space.
We all learnt so much from Bryan's experience, knowledge and extensive toolkit.
Bryan helped set us up for the future with a solid playbook, mutual success plans, co-designing our career framework and preparing us for hiring a head of partnerships.
Our team are now establishing and running commercial agreements with key partners without support and are confident and ready to build on the foundations we've built with Bryan's guidance.

In just one short phone call with Bryan, we've already gotten so much value and insights for Tallystone's partnership strategy. Bryan gave us new avenues for partnerships we hadn't even considered yet and actionable next steps. Thank you Hockey Stick Advisory!

The team at Hockeystick are the best in the business. It's incredible spending time with them to get their view on recurring revenue growth through the lens of partnerships... I don't know why we haven't implement our partnership strategy sooner... probably because we didn't have these guys behind us!

Working with Hockey Stick has shaped how MyHub can enable partnerships for growth ahead. They went beyond shaping our partnerships strategy—they educated our team on the fundamentals of partnership development, giving us the knowledge and confidence to prioritise which partners to go after, how to build our partner value proposition and what’s required for mutual success.

ELMO engaged the Hockey stick team to refine and curate our partnership strategy to enable our partnership team to drive growth, alongside our existing GTM motions.
They worked effectively across our teams to ensure we had a market ready plan harnessing their expertise, experience and insights for our team to execute on, and then provided partner marketing services to enable our team to effectively recruit new partners, and enable existing partners to sell ELMO more effectively, extending more value to our customers.
ELMO is confident that we can grow with and through our partners, to help them win and add more value to our end customers.

Working with Hockey Stick has transformed Mentorloop’s approach to partnerships.
Hockey Stick’s hands-on, collaborative approach made them feel like an extension of our team. Their strategic insights, accountability and practical tools have become essential so we can add more value to our growing customer base, and to our prioritised partners so we all win. Highly recommend.

Prior to working with Bryan and Hockey Stick Advisory, we could see early signs of the real benefit partnerships was bringing to our business. However, we lacked the long term direction and strategy to ensure we maximise the potential of partnerships and create sustainable growth off the back of it.
Through Bryan's guidance and expertise, we now have a strong foundation and clear plan on how partnerships will contribute to achieving our growth objectives. In a short period, Bryan was able to bring together key stakeholders and create company wide alignment on our partnerships strategy, conducting pilots and workshops backed by data to communicate the true value of this approach.
Would highly recommend to any ambitious business looking to take partnerships to the next level!

Superb to work with, great practical advice from a team that has been there and done it and has the war wounds to prove it. Really helped sharpen up our view and future strategy on Partnerships.

Bryan is a results driven Partnership leader who has really been a wonderful influence in our organisation and continually helps us lift our sights and our partnership game!
He brings so much partner experience, knowledge and passion to our team and asks the hard questions that challenge our thinking and breaks the cycle of 'this is how things are done here'. It is really a delight to work with Bryan and I am looking forward to continuing to learn from him in the coming months.

There's a reason why so many partner programs fail...they dramatically underestimate what it takes to identify, recruit, activate and enable the RIGHT partners. These guys simply 'get it' where so many others don't...and will put you on the right path.

Bryan provides so much value based on his deep expertise and connections in the app ecosystem and wise insights on successful partner GTM approaches! Coachbar.io purchased Bryan's largest 6 month advisory plan and we're definitely going to renew and extend our relationship with Bryan. We highly recommend Brain/Hockey Stick for any business serious about efficient growth and success with partners. His advisory approach, insights, market intelligence, and best practice assessments will get you moving much faster in the right direction than if you try to figure it out on your own through trial and error. Have a chat with Bryan and you'll experience what I'm talking about here! -Doug LaBahn, Founder and CEO of Coachbar.io

Bryan knows what he's talking about! I've seen first-hand the great work he has done with some of my company's industry partners. His work has made such a difference it has made to their ability to clearly demonstrate their value in a crowded app ecosystem and, in turn, that has made my work with them as a partner so much better and more valuable.

Tractor had emerging partnership opportunities everywhere but we were unsure where to focus our efforts, or how to resource effectively amongst competing priorities. Hockey Stick came in to build us a robust partnerships strategy, and today >30% of our business is generated with or through partners, and we expect this to increase. Additionally, we built out our growth partners amongst our village community of our portfolio companies, ensuring the companies we support have the best operators enabling them to put their funds and limited resourcing to best use. And we know that if our portfolio are thriving, our partners also win, so does Tractor and our growth flywheel can spin faster.
