The Different Phases of Your Work

1. Analysis of customer needs

The negotiator’s first mission is to review the partnership research files transmitted by PartneaHub. This step is essential to understand the client’s specific objectives and the requirements of their sector of activity, in order to direct the searches towards strategically aligned partners.

2. Searching for ideal partners

Once the needs have been clarified, the negotiator identifies potential partners using databases, prospecting tools and his professional network. The goal is to find partners who meet the client's expectations and bring real added value.

Phase 3. Pre-negotiation

After identifying partners, the negotiator initiates discussions to clarify expectations and mutual benefits. This step aims to establish the foundations of a solid partnership and prepare a favorable framework for final negotiations.

4. Transmission of pre-negotiation agreements

The negotiator writes a detailed report on the pre-negotiation carried out, including the discussions, the terms envisaged and the strategic points. This report is sent to PartneaHub, which assesses whether the elements are sufficiently solid to move forward to the actual negotiation phase. This verification ensures that the process is on the right track.

5. Effective negotiation phase

This step involves the negotiator, the client and the potential partner found. PartneaHub, as an observer, organizes a videoconference at a date and time agreed with all parties. At the end of this negotiation, the terms of the partnership are defined. The negotiator immediately receives a payment of $80. The rest of the process is entrusted to PartneaHub lawyers, who ensure the legal formalization of the agreement.

Phase 6. Partnership Follow-up

The partnership monitoring extends over a year and is jointly ensured by the negotiator and the designated lawyer, under the coordination of PartneaHub. This phase guarantees the smooth running of the commitments made. At the end of this period, the negotiator receives 15% of the profits generated by the partnership, marking the end of his mission.
