Wendi Makuch's Linkedin Analytics

Partnerships Manager with 14 years of experience in the ecommerce and SaaS industry, specializing in building and scaling ecosystems that drive measurable revenue growth. Skilled in developing go-to-market strategies, managing tech and agency partnerships end-to-end, and aligning cross-functional teams (Sales, Marketing, CS, Product) to deliver impact. Known for exceeding quota consistently and turning partnerships into high-performing revenue channels. What sets me apart is my ability to “translate” complex technology into clear, compelling value stories that resonate with both partners and customers. I thrive on learning products deeply enough to demo them, evaluate integrations, and champion their place in the market. A self-professed SaaS junkie, I love the entrepreneurial energy of software companies—the pace, the innovation, and the chance to keep learning while making a tangible impact. For me, partnerships are about more than business growth; they’re about creating collaborative ecosystems where everyone wins.
