The Partnership Marathon: Colleen Shea’s Blueprint for Long-Cycle Wins
What does it really take to build a top-performing ERP partner motion inside a modern SaaS company? In this episode, I sit down with Colleen Shea, the force behind Commerce’s technology partnerships and one of the sharpest, most process-driven operators in the ERP channel. We go deep on her journey, from fashion & PR to Oracle sales to becoming a powerhouse in partnerships, and how she built Commerce’s ERP channel from the ground up.
Colleen breaks down why storytelling is an underrated superpower, how to win over cross-functional teams, and why “slow is smooth and smooth is fast” when building long-term, high-impact partner ecosystems. Her insights on discipline, time-blocking, partner selection, and the long-game of alliances are some of the most tactical we’ve ever shared on the show.
If you’re building a partner program, scaling a channel team, or trying to become a top 1% partner leader, you’re going to want to take notes.
