If you’re a B2B SaaS startup founder, one of the biggest go-to-market challenges is around distribution. Building an internal sales team is expensive and time consuming. Fortunately, strategic partnerships can help you accelerate your go-to-market by providing distribution to a massive established sales channel.
Enter Jonathan Weston: builder of startup partnerships with Salesforce by day and primitive campgrounds for his Wanderland empire by night. In his dual role of Salesforce RVP and Wanderland founder, Weston understands the value of partnerships in both the startup ecosystem and the outdoors. He leads the Salesforce Business Builders program, which helps high-potential, early-stage founders rapidly accelerate their trajectory to success by leveraging the power of Salesforce’s ecosystem, platform, and market.
On Dec. 1, Weston and successful Salesforce partners hosted a webinar on building durable partnerships and explored the parallels between entrepreneurship and wilderness survival with the 5Cs of Survival and Entrepreneurship:
