Who knew that a one-off software partnership 7 years ago would change everything for entero AG?

Fast-forward to today: six active partnerships, a sixfold revenue increase, and a consulting firm that’s reimagined how it grows.

In this episode, Henning Heesch, Co-founder and CEO of entero AG, joins host Sammy Gebele to unpack how a chance collaboration with a Dutch software company became the blueprint for an entirely new go-to-market model. Henning walks through how he and his team built a partner-first strategy that now accounts for 80% of their business growth—starting with no formal playbook, just strong client relationships and a willingness to test the waters.


You'll learn:

1. How one project turned into a repeatable partner-led growth strategy
2. The onboarding blueprint that makes clients feel like they’re talking to one firm
3. Why entero invests before the first project is even signed
4. The business case behind German legal entities & shared accountability
5. Henning’s 6-step playbook for consulting leaders starting with partnerships
