What is up PartnerUp!? 

Many people don’t realize how far ahead of its Intuit competitor Xero was in winning the ecosystem battle and becoming a necessary layer across the finance and accounting world.

Bryan Williams joins us to talk about their unique strategy, how they managed to win big, and what the pros and pitfalls are of going platform-first. It’s the way to dominate a category, but it’s not something you can do easily, lightly, or in every situation. We also discuss Bryan’s next career chapter bringing these insights to the world!
