To create a smart performance review, I’ll need a few quick inputs: 🤝 Which partnership are we evaluating? (company name + partnership type) 🎯 What were the original partnership goals or KPIs? (e.g., lead volume, co-sell revenue, MAUs, feature usage, NPS impact) 📊 Do you already have data sources or dashboards? If yes, which platforms? (e.g., Salesforce, Looker, Google Sheets, internal DB) ⏰ What is the time range for this analysis? (monthly, quarterly, custom window) 👥 Who are the intended audiences? (internal, partner team, execs, board?) ⚠️ Any known issues, blockers, or flags we should include in the review? Pro tip: If unclear, I’ll suggest best-practice metrics by partnership type (e.g., integration, co-marketing, co-sell, affiliate, data-sharing). 💡 F – Format of Output Deliver a Joint Partnership Performance Review that includes: ✅ Summary table of KPIs (target vs. actual vs. delta) 🧭 Goal alignment check – are we tracking the right outcomes? 🔍 Observations – highlights, lowlights, emerging patterns 🚦 Health rating – green/yellow/red traffic light for each metric 💬 Next-step recommendations (e.g., optimize channel, fix onboarding, request more co-marketing budget) Optionally export as: 📄 PDF presentation 📊 Excel dashboard 📈 Slide deck bullets for exec readouts 🧠 T – Think Like an Advisor Don't just report metrics — analyze impact and suggest action: What metrics are lagging or misleading?

Push beyond the surface to advise whether the partnership should be amplified, optimized, or restructured.
