As time progressed, Juraj reveals how partnerships became tightly integrated with product strategies, illustrating the pivotal role partnerships played in the growth of his company at the time, Slido.Understanding the customer workflow is a central aspect of this approach, you should aim to make customers more successful by solving problems for them. Juraj advocates for a customer-centric product integration approach, urging companies to analyze customer tool usage data in order to identify opportunities for seamless integration. The guest also emphasizes the importance of carefully aligning partnerships with the product visions. This strategy is essential to ensure that partnerships remain impactful and lead to growth, rather than forming partnerships which fragment into scattered collaborations.INSIGHTS FOR BETTER OUTCOMESJuraj: "At the beginning, partnerships are mostly marketing focused. This means that we are considering which brand collaboration could increase our own exposure towards the target user audience as a priority. Over time, the collaboration becomes much more closely knit with the product itself. This is where we should start defining the group of products that can grow through partnerships." You can find more about Juraj and his work through the links below:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jurajpal/If you love listening to Outcomes, please subscribe, share, and send us your feedback.LinkedIn (Barrett) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/barrettjking/LinkedIn (HubSpot) - https://www.linkedin.com/company/hubspot/Website – https://www.hubspot.com/This show is about capturing the stories, experiences, and tactical advice of those across partnerships who have done the work and have something to say about it."Outcomes" - where Partnerships and SaaS meet!"Join Partnerships Leaders here:https://refer.partnershipleaders.com/barrett5
