#77 Building Partner Operations from Scratch – with Hassan Irshad, CEO of RevInfinity

Hassan Irshad, Founder & CEO of RevInfinity and longtime RevOps leader, joins the podcast to shed light on one of the most overlooked pillars in revenue operations: Partner Ops. From building channel ecosystems from scratch to enabling partners and tracking ROI, Hassan walks us through the operational frameworks and tooling that power modern partner programs—and explains why it’s time for RevOps teams to stop ignoring this high-impact lever.


We cover:

  • What Partner Operations is and why it's a strategic RevOps pillar

  • How partnerships accelerate deals, increase ACV, and improve win rates

  • Common partnership models (referrals, integrations, strategic alliances)

  • How to measure partner-influenced vs. partner-sourced pipeline

  • Tools of the trade: PRMs, Salesforce integrations, and Crossbeam

  • Avoiding channel conflict and designing fair compensation structures

  • The 3 tips every RevOps team should know before launching a partner motion
