Your Partnerships Are Costing You Money
Most organizations treat partnerships as side initiatives: fragmented deals, siloed teams, and no clear owner accountable for results.
High-performing brands treat partnerships like a revenue function, with governance, financial rigor, and cross-functional alignment built in from the start.
You don’t need more deals. You need disciplined growth.
BEAM embeds as an extension of your team to evaluate your portfolio, create the strategy, design the system, own execution, and turn brand equity into measurable, scalable profit.

Prior Brands and Partners
I have had the privilege of working for and with leading brands across entertainment, culture and consumer goods from global icons to emerging innovators.
The portfolio of brands includes:
I Work for You To Drive Your Results
Most consultants hand over a strategy deck and walk away. I embed inside your business to build the infrastructure your partnerships need to deliver measurable growth.
Partnerships aren't "paperwork." They're profit centers and when built with the right operating model, clear approval flows, and data-driven accountability. For growth leaders, partnerships are an underleveraged P&L lever and one that can scale faster than new product development or M&A.
At Newell Brands, I unified fragmented programs across 15+ household brands, increasing profitability by 11% YOY and eliminating redundant spend.
I move fast enough for private-equity timelines but with the structure Fortune 500 governance requires. That's why I take on fewer clients, go deeper, and share ownership of outcomes.

When to Engage with BEAM
I'm typically brought in when:
-
PE-backed consumer goods companies are seeking asset-light growth and partnership scalability*
-
Mid-size contract manufacturers are ready to move from supplier to brand builder
-
Rapidly scaling brands ($50M-$500M) need systems and leadership to manage licensing, retail, and co-brand complexity
-
Brand equity is being left on the table because no one has the infrastructure to capture it
BEAM also consults with enterprise brands and entertainment IP owners on partnership strategy, portfolio expansion, and category alignment initiatives.
From Fragmented Partnerships to 11% YOY in Profit Growth
Unstructured partnerships leak profit, I turn that chaos into measurable margin.
From Fragmented Partnerships to Scalable Growth
A global consumer products company had multiple licensing programs operating independently, with overlapping partners and no shared reporting systems.
I designed and led a unified global partnerships model that streamlined governance, standardized compliance, and created measurable accountability.
Key initiatives included:
-
Establishing clear approval authority and service-level agreements
-
Introducing partner scorecards to track revenue, margin, and brand health
-
Implementing quarterly C-suite business reviews to align on ROI
-
Automating compliance and royalty reporting and consolidating vendors to improve compliance efficiency
-
Created in house inbound licensing capability delivering 5 new partner agreements and delivering savings of $450K in first year vs. using external agency
Result: Turned around a 7% YOY decline to growth of 11% in one year driving partner retail sales of over $1.1B in reduction in administrative overhead, achieved through stronger alignment, transparency, and disciplined infrastructure.
