Matthew shares how ProStar shifted from selling software directly to end users to building partnerships with hardware manufacturers, distributors, and sales teams. That change created new challenges in scaling training, activating partners, and making sure salespeople understood not just the product but the full value proposition for their customers.Matthew also draws parallels between marketing leadership and community leadership. From identifying champions inside organizations to building trust and consistency in messaging, he shows why successful channel strategies depend on relationships at every level.
