"We are solving the pain of managing hundreds, potentially thousands of referral, affiliate and solution partners. This can typically become a very admin-heavy job, especially when having to deal with the payouts, which Partnerstack fully automates. The main benefit is probably that I can keep developing partnerships at our company being a 1-person team instead of having to hire people for redundant partner-management tasks!"
