Groups (in PartnerStack's software)

Noun

[gr-oops]

In PartnerStack's software, partner groups allow you to set up specific offers, which result in rewards for your partners after certain actions occur. You can create a group by naming it and providing a destination link. This is where your partners' links will redirect their customers to once clicked. This is the point in which the tracking cookie is placed in the customers' browser and allows us to track activity relative to their link, which then allows you to reward your partners.

The terms of the offer are customizable. Offers are set conditions that need to be met in order for the partners of the group to earn rewards. Learn more about partner groups and their uses in our support center.

Example: Shae set up a group of partners to run an offer wherein she gave each partner a monetary reward for each new customer sign-up.

Noun

[goh too ee·kow·si·stm]

Go-to-ecosystem, or a go-to-ecosystem strategy refers to a strategic collaboration between software vendors, service providers, and complementary businesses to offer a comprehensive and integrated solution to their shared target audience in order to mutually benefit from growth. This synergistic approach allows each partner to leverage their expertise, expand market reach, and deliver a more holistic and value-driven experience to customers within their shared partner ecosystem in the B2B SaaS industry.
