Context
Context: resolving channel conflict between direct and partner sales often creates disagreement over deal overlap rate, partner satisfaction, net revenue impact and the reliability of territory rules, compensation policy, escalation cases. Without a shared frame, the channel harmony versus short-term revenue decision becomes implicit and accountability erodes.
Options
- Option A: Maintain the current approach to minimize disruption while accepting limited improvement.
- Option B: Pilot changes in stages, validate against metrics, and scale only after thresholds are met.
- Option C: Redesign the approach end to end to pursue larger gains with higher execution risk.
Decision
Decision: Select Option B. Validate deal overlap rate, partner satisfaction, net revenue impact early, revisit if territory rules, compensation policy, escalation cases change materially, and document stop conditions.
Rationale
Rationale: Option B balances channel harmony versus short-term revenue and allows learning before full commitment. It protects the organization from misreading deal overlap rate, partner satisfaction, net revenue impact when territory rules, compensation policy, escalation cases are volatile.
Risks
- Poor data quality can obscure shifts in deal overlap rate, partner satisfaction, net revenue impact and delay corrective action.
- Slow execution can deepen the downside of channel harmony versus short-term revenue and reduce credibility.
Next
Next: Assign owners, finalize baselines for deal overlap rate, partner satisfaction, net revenue impact, and record territory rules, compensation policy, escalation cases with update rules. Schedule the first review and define escalation triggers.
