CLOSE: Coordinated signing and onboarding\n8. SUCCEED: Joint customer success plan\n```\n\n**Co-sell rules:**\n- Lead partner = whoever has the stronger existing relationship\n- Revenue split agreed BEFORE first joint meeting\n- One partner manages the deal; other provides air cover\n- Weekly joint stand-ups during active deals\n- Shared CRM view or weekly pipeline email\n\n### Affiliate Program at Scale\n\n```yaml\naffiliate_program:\n  tracking: \"First-click attribution, 90-day cookie\"\n  commission_structure:\n    one_time: \"30% of first payment\"\n    recurring: \"20% for 12 months\"\n    \n  tiers:\n    starter: { monthly_sales: \"0-5\", commission: \"20%\" }\n    pro: { monthly_sales: \"6-20\", commission: \"25%\" }\n    elite: { monthly_sales: \"21+\", commission: \"30%\", bonus: \"$500/mo\" }\n  \n  assets_provided:\n    - Banner ads (5 sizes)\n    - Email swipe copy (5 variations)\n    - Social media posts (10 templates)\n    - Landing page (co-branded, personalized link)\n    - Video testimonials for embedding\n  \n  rules:\n    - No brand bidding on paid search\n    - No coupon/deal sites without approval\n    - Honest representation required\n    - FTC disclosure mandatory\n    \n  payment: \"Monthly, NET-30, minimum $100 payout\"\n  platform: \"PartnerStack / FirstPromoter / custom\"\n```\n\n### Partner Ecosystem Flywheel\n\n```\nMore Partners → More Integrations → Better Product → More Customers\n     ↑                                                        ↓\nMore Revenue ← Higher Retention ← More Value ← More Use Cases\n```\n\n**Flywheel accelerators:**\n1. **Partner marketplace** — customers discover partners naturally\n2. **Integration templates** — reduce time-to-integrate from months to days\n3. **Partner API** — self-serve technical onboarding\n4. **Success stories** — each win attracts 2-3 similar partners\n5. **Partner events** — annual summit builds community\n\n---\n\n## Phase 10 — Edge Cases & Difficult Situations\n\n### When a Partner Isn't Performing\n\n```\nStep 1: Data review — is it volume, quality, or conversion?\nStep 2: Honest conversation — \"We committed to X referrals/quarter. \n        We're at Y.
