Four lanes of partnership development.
Sector-specific by design. We work with companies who know exactly what kind of partner they need, and need someone senior to go open the door.
PropTech & Mortgage Partnerships
For platforms across home equity, mortgage, iBuying, rental tech, title, and home services. We open insurance carriers, lender partners, and embedded distribution.
Wealth & Investing Distribution
For wealth platforms, RIAs, and retirement providers who serve customers needing insurance, banking, or financial services extensions.
SMB & Consumer Lending / Banking
For small business lenders, consumer finance, neobanks, and banking partners. We open insurance partners, bank alliances, and embedded distribution.
B2B Fintech Infrastructure
For BaaS, payments, BNPL, and fintech infrastructure providers. We open the financial product partners that fit your customer base.

A four-week onramp. Then execution.
- 01
Strategy alignment
We start with a deep-dive session to understand your goals, current partnership landscape, and target outcomes. Output: a clear scope of the partnership categories we'll pursue and why.
- 02
Target development
We build a prioritized target list of 50–200 specific partnership candidates. For each, we identify the right buyer, the partnership angle, and the opening hook. You approve the list before outreach begins.
- 03
Outreach & qualification
We run the outbound. Personalized introductions, follow-ups, discovery calls. You get weekly pipeline updates. Qualified opportunities come to you fully briefed and warm.
- 04
Deal orchestration
We run the partnership conversation from first meeting through signed agreement. You step in where your expertise is needed — not to chase replies or manage back-and-forth.
6-month minimum engagement. Monthly retainer plus performance fees on closed deals. Typical investment: mid-five to low-six figures annualized, depending on scope.
If partnerships are a growth priority this year, we can map the right partner categories, open executive conversations, and help move qualified opportunities toward signed agreements.
See if there's a fit.
A 20-minute conversation is the best way to figure out if we can help build your partnership pipeline. No pitch deck. No pressure. Just a real conversation about what you're trying to accomplish.
