Company Overview 

Pipeline CRM is the most adopted CRM among SMBs in the US (Source: G2 Crowd).

Founded in 2006 in Seattle, Pipeline CRM (formerly PipelineDeals) is known for its easy-to-use and customizable user experience, sales-focused features, and leading customer support and service. With its functionality and design, Pipeline CRM makes the day in the life of a sales professional as productive as possible, enabling them to build game-changing relationships.

Pipeline CRM has been founded to serve an attractive market niche of SMB companies operating across industrial, logistics, professional services, and other industries, where B2B sales play an important role in driving organic revenue growth. The product eschews the complexity of enterprise-focused solutions (e.g., Salesforce) while providing a rich feature set, including automation and integration with popular tools like Gmail and Quickbooks.

In 2022, Pipeline CRM (a profitable business) was acquired by saas.group. The company is now poised for substantial growth in 2023 and beyond.

Description

We seek a highly motivated and experienced Partner Manager to join our Pipeline CRM team. As a Partner Manager, you will establish and maintain relationships with solution partners, drive revenue growth through partner channels, and manage key partner accounts. The ideal candidate has a proven track record of success in partner management, excellent communication and negotiation skills.

Key Responsibilities:

• Identify, recruit, and onboard solution partners to expand our business reach and drive revenue growth.
• Develop and nurture relationships with key partner stakeholders, acting as the main point of contact for partner-related matters.
• Develop and innovate our current partner program (affiliate model) to drive enterprise co-selling opportunities with solution partners. Our partners include marketing agencies, system integrators, and business consultants. 
• Collaborate with internal teams (sales, marketing, product, etc.) to align partner activities with company objectives and ensure seamless execution of joint initiatives.
• Drive partner enablement of our referral and solution partners by providing training, resources, and support to ensure partners have the necessary knowledge and tools to effectively promote and sell our products/services.

You can quickly use data, qualitative insights, and your understanding of our product and users to develop and prioritize a solution partner roadmap.
• A hacker’s mentality with structured problem-solving skills. You obsess over finding novel ways to drive partner demand. We place a big emphasis on creativity matched with the ability to break down an ambiguous problem into solvable components.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal, and relationship-building skills.
• Taking the initiative is second nature to you. Without prompting, you’ll dive deep into quantitative and qualitative signals throughout the partner funnel to find challenges and solutions.
