VELLARA STRATEGIES · PARTNERSHIPS

I built partnership programs for the companies I worked for. Now I build them for the companies I consult with.

It's time I built one for myself.


Thirty years of building revenue through the people around the business, not just the people in it. Here's how Partnerships with Vellara Strategies works.

Why this matters when you hire Vellara Strategies

FOR YOUR COMPANY

The Partner, Affiliate, and Consultant network exists so your engagement gets the right expertise at the right moment, not a generalist stretched thin. Here's what changes, and what doesn't.


A bench, not just me

When an engagement needs a specialist skill outside my own thirty years, I bring in a vetted Consultant scoped to that specific piece, not a generalist guessing at it.


One point of accountability, where it counts

Every Consultant works under my scope and my oversight. If a Consultant is doing hands-on work, I'm accountable for that outcome. If a Partner or Affiliate connects you to something outside my engagement, that relationship and its outcome sit directly between you and them, not through me.


A wider field of view

Partners and Affiliates mean I'm hearing about what's working and what's breaking across other companies like yours, not operating from one data point.

PARTNERSHIPS

Trusted specialists, one call away

When a Business Operating Systems Audit surfaces a need outside my own lane, this is who I bring in. Every name here has been vetted through direct engagement, not a cold application.

Let’s Work Together

Partners, Affiliates, and Consultants work with Vellara Strategies differently, get paid differently, and sign different paper. Pick the one that's actually you.

Partners & Affiliates

Trusted peers I refer business to, and who refer business to me. Standing relationship.

The power of networking works and, if you fill a gap that I’ve identified as needing being filled, making an introduction is the right thing to do. Where services are included, a short Affiliate Agreement can be implemented.

RIGHT FIT IF

- You serve founders and CEOs but don't do BOS work

- You’re in front of my ICP, or vice-versa, but specialization is needed

- You want a two-way referral relationship, not a transaction

- You've got a track record I can vouch for

"Trust brings us together to do great work."


Consultants

You work engagements under my scope, at your rate. I bill the client, you invoice me, everyone knows their number going in.

RIGHT FIT IF

- You want project work without chasing your own clients

- You have a specialty that rounds out a BOS engagement

- You're fine being paid for hours, not for the relationship

"You bill the work. I bill the client."


HOW SIGNUP ACTUALLY WORKS

Four steps. No lane skips a step.


Pick your lane

Short form, three questions. Tells me which of the three you actually are before we ever talk.

1

15-minute call

Not a pitch. I'm checking fit both directions before anything gets signed.

2

Sign the agreement

Lane-specific paper. Partner is a light MOU. Affiliate and Consultant are signed engagement terms.

3

You're active

Partners start referring. Affiliates get warm intros routed their way. Consultants get looped into scoped work.
