Navigating the Revenue Maze: The Art of B2B Partnership Models

Are you torn between revenue shares and fixed fees in your B2B partnerships? Let’s dive into the pros and cons:

🤝 Revenue Share Agreements:

  • Pro: Encourages mutual growth – “a rising tide lifts all ships”
  • Pro: Creates skin in the game, boosting partnership success
  • Con: Lacks guaranteed Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)

💼 Predetermined Flat Fees:

  • Pro: Offers predictable, forecastable revenue
  • Con: Caps upside potential if partnership exceeds expectations
  • Con: May make the relationship more transactional

🔑 The Key to Success:

  1. Define clear goals for both parties
  2. Engage in honest, open dialogue
  3. For fixed fees, consider short terms with annual reviews

Remember, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. The best model aligns with your specific partnership goals and dynamics.
