Commitment Models

Choose Your Partnership Model

Four options. Lower retainer means higher commission. Every model includes market introduction, compliance advisory, deal registration, and non-circumvention.

GTM Retainer
€5,000 /mo
10% TCV
Exit fee€1,000
Hours40/week
Tail period24 months
HCI risk15%
Full commitment. HCI works exclusively on your market introduction with highest priority.
Deferred + Exit
€1,500 /mo
20% TCV
Exit fee€2,500
Hours10/week
Tail period30 months
HCI risk60%
Minimal retainer as commitment signal. HCI invests more hours than the retainer covers — the 20% TCV compensates.
High Risk
No Retainer
€0 /mo
30% TCV
Exit fee€5,000
Hours5/week
Tail period36 months
HCI risk80%
No monthly investment. HCI bears full market risk. Only with demonstrably strong product and concrete pipeline.
⚠️ No Retainer model: places 80% of risk on HCI. A reseller charges 30–40% margin without taking market entry risk. Consider the Light Retainer (€3,000/mo) for a more balanced partnership.

Two Routes

Choose Your Market Approach

Direct sales for enterprise deals, partner channel for volume markets — or both.

🎯

Direct Sales Track

"Land enterprise accounts directly"

  • Higher ACV deals (€50K+)
  • Control over sales process
  • Direct customer relationships
  • C-level network access
Commitment model → Outreach → First Deal
🤝

Partner Channel Track

"Scale through partner network"

  • Broader geographic coverage
  • Volume & SMB market access
  • Local expertise & relationships
  • Scalable without headcount
Commitment model + Partner Framework (€12,500) → Recruitment → First Deal
🤝

Partner Channel Track

Build and activate your European partner ecosystem

⚠️

Why is the Framework required? Partners need tools to sell your solution: playbooks, onboarding, certification, business case calculators. Without these, partner recruitment fails.
