1. Close The First Cycle Properly
Expansion should start after one clean handoff, one clean payout loop, and one clear proof of value. Do not build on a messy first cycle.
Open Partner Handoff Open Partner PayoutPartner post-win page
Turn one successful partner deal into the next clean revenue move.
A good partner deal should create leverage after it closes. The next step might be another sprint, monthly support, one more intro, a reusable proof asset, or a broader repeat lane. This page keeps that expansion logic compact and reusable.

Partner Expansion
Use one sequence from first win to next revenue.
2. Pick The Best Next Revenue Motion
The next move is usually one of these: another sprint, a monthly retainer, one more intro, a repeatable buyer lane, or a proof asset that helps future partner deals move faster.

If the result was useful, ask the partner for one more buyer, operator, or account with the same bottleneck instead of a vague promise to send business later.

One clean proof asset, partner quote, or permission to describe the outcome can make the next partner deal materially easier to close.
Open Partner Proof Capture5. Decide How The Next Cycle Is Approved
If more work is likely, decide now whether the next cycle needs a fresh partner approval, a simple renewal check, or no extra approval beyond the monthly rule already agreed.

Once the next motion is chosen, route directly into payment and keep the transfer proof attached so expansion does not drift.
Open Payment PageBest Expansion Motions
Use the one that matches what the first win actually proved.
Second Sprint
Best when the partner sees another clear bottleneck in the same account and the next step should stay project-shaped.
Monthly Support
Best when the value now comes from upkeep, iteration, monitoring, or white-label monthly delivery rather than another concentrated sprint.
One More Intro
Best when the partner knows another account with the same pattern and can route a similar opportunity quickly.
Proof Asset
Best when the outcome is strong enough that a short proof asset will accelerate future partner conversations.
Wider Channel
Best when the first result proves the partner can route this same kind of buyer more than once without custom deal logic.
Short Lines
Use short language that makes the next ask obvious.
Next Sprint Line
Now that the first cycle is working, the next obvious move may be one more narrow sprint rather than broadening this one quietly.
Retainer Line
If the need is now ongoing rather than project-shaped, the clean version is to define the monthly rule before the second cycle starts.
Intro Line
If this worked, the easiest expansion may be one more aligned intro with the same bottleneck rather than a broad referral ask.
Proof Line
One short proof asset from this result can make the next partner conversation materially easier to close.
Best Next Routes
Route the post-win question to the page that resolves it fastest.
Need Monthly Rule
If the next move is recurring work, define the monthly rights, ownership, and renewal rhythm first.
Open Partner RetainerNeed Second Sprint Rule
If the next move is another project-shaped cycle, define the second-sprint scope, approval, and economics here first.
Open Partner RenewalNeed Repeat Channel Design
If the bigger goal is scale across similar accounts, route back to the repeat page and stabilize the buyer pattern.
Open Channel RepeatNeed One More Warm Intro
If the easiest next move is a single aligned introduction, route to the referral-forward page and package the ask tightly.
Open Partner Referral ForwardNeed Forwardable Intro Packet
If the ask is decided and the partner now needs something easy to resend, route to the intro-pack page next.
Open Partner Intro PackNeed Proof Asset
If the result is strong but under-documented, route to the proof page and capture something reusable.
Open Partner Proof CaptureNeed Internal Sign-Off
If the next motion is understood but still needs founder or finance approval, route to the approval page.
Open Partner ApprovalNeed Buyer-Side Expansion
If the partner path is clear and the client now needs the next revenue motion packaged on the buyer side, use expansion or renewal.

If the next deal is already chosen, send the payment route and keep the transfer proof attached to the new cycle.

Once the next motion is chosen, move the next cycle cleanly.
Keep the post-win step narrow: confirm the model, confirm the payer, move the funds, and attach the proof to the next cycle.
