The Baseline.
A focused diagnostic working session and a short written read on where your partner function stands, what is constraining performance, and what we would do about it. No fee, no obligation.
Most programs are not broken
in ways you can see.
Attribution quietly drops. Funding goes unclaimed. Co-sell is registered but never worked. Nothing throws an error, so nothing gets fixed.
The Baseline is Howdy Partners' diagnostic first read: a focused working session designed to surface the constraint before anyone prescribes a fix. You get a short written summary of what we saw, what we would prioritize, and why. It costs nothing, and you keep the findings whether we work together or not.
One session.
One diagnostic read.
- Session
- One hour, with you and whoever runs the partner motion today.
- We review
- What is registered, what is claimed, how attribution flows, and what reporting exists.
- You receive
- A short diagnostic read within a week: the constraint we see, what it is likely costing, and the path we would recommend.
- Fee
- None. This one is on us.
- Not included
- A full program audit, technical implementation review, systems access, or written deliverables beyond the read.
- Availability
- Limited. We take a small number each month alongside client work.
One session,
three steps.
We talk through what is actually happening
Where the partner motion stands, what is registered, what is claimed, and what nobody has had time to look at.
We check the few things that usually leak
Attribution, funding eligibility, and co-sell follow-through. Enough to tell whether the problem is small or structural.
You get the diagnostic in writing
A short summary of the constraint we see, what it is likely costing, and the path we would recommend. Yours to use either way.
Worth doing
if any of these are true.
- You have a partner motion and cannot tell what it is producing.
- You may have proof-of-concept, BOX Program, MDF, or other hyperscaler funding available and are not claiming it.
- You are deciding whether to hire an alliances director or lead, or engage one fractionally.
- You inherited a program and need an honest baseline before you commit to a plan.
If a Sprint or a fractional engagement is obviously the right answer already, say so and we will skip the session and scope it directly.
