Same Service. Different Standard.
- Billed by results, not by partnerships signed — when we over-deliver, we earn more. If we under-deliver, you pay less.
- Measured by Adola Signal — reporting tied to partner-sourced qualified leads and closed revenue, attributed in your CRM.
- Senior-only delivery — the strategist who maps your network is the same person developing the relationships.
- Reviewed every 90 days — targets, partnership performance, and network priorities reassessed every quarter.

FAQ
PR builds brand awareness through media and publications. Adola Partnerships builds revenue through direct relationships. PR creates the conditions for trust. Partnerships convert that trust into pipeline through people who already believe in you.
This varies by industry. Common structures include reciprocal referrals, revenue share, fixed referral fees, or non-monetary incentives (priority access, co-marketing). We design the incentive structure based on what motivates your specific network.
Partnership sourcing and relationship development typically takes 4–8 weeks before the first partner-sourced lead arrives. Referral programmes from existing clients can generate leads faster, often within the first month if the client base is engaged.
Both options are available. We can build the programme and hand it over with documentation and templates, or manage the relationships on an ongoing retained basis.
If the client base is small, we focus on strategic partnerships first — identifying complementary businesses and building co-marketing relationships. The referral programme layers in as the client portfolio grows.
We set up tracking within your CRM and use unique referral links, UTM parameters, and source tagging. Every partner-sourced lead is attributed clearly in your pipeline so you can see exactly what the channel produces.
Standalone pricing is scoped per engagement. Programme setup and ongoing management are priced separately. For clients within Adola Core, Partnerships is included within the retainer.
