The Secret is Out
The co-selling movement is happening TODAY and some of the biggest brands in the world are doubling down on their partnership strategy as a result.
Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian tells CRN about his channel goal to attach 100 percent of customer engagements to a partner, while also touting ‘zero channel conflict’ in the sales field.
“We’re truly doubling down on working with partners in service of our customers. We want to continue to grow co-sell with them and help them transform our customers together”
“PARTNERS KEY TO $1 TRILLION OPEN HYBRID CLOUD MARKET” – “There are industries where partners will have that last-mile knowledge for us. And most of those partners probably need our platform and success to bring software innovation to industry. So it is a phenomenal opportunity for us.”
Rodney Clark: Corporate Vice President of Global Channel Sales and Channel Chief at Microsoft – “The fastest-growing partner segment is expanding at 140%, according to Clark. That group, in addition to pursuing specializations, invests in digital sales via cloud marketplaces, emphasizes partner-to-partner engagement and participates in Microsoft’s Co-Selling Programs”
Karl Fahrbach – Chief Partner Officer at SAP – “The flex co-sell model already accounts for roughly 70% of SAP’s indirect revenue. It’s catching on very, very quickly. I feel that the alignment has never been better with our partners.”

Co-Selling
When sales teams, from two or more companies, combine forces to close deals as a unified front.
Co-Selling Problems
If not executed effectively, misaligned sales motions between co-selling partners lead to frustrated and indecisive buying groups (slipped deals, no decision, etc.).
Forecastable’s co-selling services align partner sales teams in ways never before achievable, without adding administrative burden.
Communicate and collaborate on joint deals, without having to become a partner co-selling expert.
We know how sales reps think and work. All they want to do is work deals and that’s what we let them do.
