The gentleman above wrote: "The intent is to get the client to bypass a formal RFP process and view your consultative approach as a "service" beyond the software you intend to sell."\n\nIt's correct, but incomplete. Consultative selling (a method largely developed by Mack Hanan) aims at selling a business value, as opposed to a mere product.\n\nIt is not enough to sell a "service beyond the software"; a consultative seller must offer a "profit improvement that will be brought about by the implementation of the software in the client environment."\n\nThis means you have to understand a client's business so well that you can apply your solution in a way that results in a profit improvement for him.\n\nUsually, only salespeople who master business and/or have consulting skills, can use Consultative Selling.

Partnerships strugle. Especially if one person isn't lifting their portion of the work. If your partner is not willing to sell or give up his portion, you can't kick him out of your partnership without first desolving the company. Additionally, the risk is shared. So if your partner screws up, you're held responsible.\n\nPartnerships can be good if both communicate and are clear on their expectations of each other. Specifying criteria in writing before creating the business partnership will help you out in the long run.
