Structure and close OEM agreements
Multi-year, usage-based or per-transaction models
Pre-pay / minimum commitments where possible
Revenue-share and margin that works for both sides
Drive sell-through, not just signatures
Enable and motivate the OEMโs sales org so youโre not just โon the shelfโ
Build joint value props, decks, and playbooks with marketing and product
Regular pipeline reviews to make sure the OEM is actually selling
Collaborate with existing partners
They already have local partners (e.g. big consulting / SI brands, including a global firm like Deloitte) โ youโll plug OEM into that broader partner ecosystem
