Use these 3 Nearbound plays
All B2B companies should be using 3 Nearbound plays right now —
- Intel
- Intro

Product, marketing, sales, and success need to utilize partners at every step of the customer journey.
A Nearbound strategy is what helps you do that at scale. Baked in and layered onto existing outbound and inbound motions.
The idea behind Nearbound is simple: your network of partners already has the information, established relationships, and influence that you need to bring in revenue and keep it.
Don’t underestimate Nearbound!
4 lenses to prove partner value 📈
These four lenses prove that partnerships impact EVERY SINGLE department.
1) Increased Market Presence
2) Partner Sourced Revenue
3) Broadening Product Capabilities
4) Improving Retention and Renewal Rates
When you go to your CEO, your president, and your board, you get to say,
Not only do we drive new customers, not only do we help with product capabilities, not only do we help drive partner sourced revenue, we ALSO help make our current customers stickier.”
