The partner model

Partners resell and own the client

SAP Business One is sold only through partners. The partner sells the licence, implements it, often adds its own industry add-ons, and supports the client afterwards. The sales leader owns the whole relationship.

The market

Small and lower mid-market companies, often in distribution and light manufacturing, with industry depth from partner add-ons.

What a partner sales leader sells

  • Licence resale
  • Implementation
  • Partner-built industry add-ons
  • Hosting and cloud
  • Support contracts and version upgrades

Why partners are hiring now

SAP has announced version 11 of Business One for 2027, with deployment on the major cloud platforms. A new version gives partners a reason to go back to every client, and buyers have been acquiring Business One partners to get a share of that base.

Who we look for

Sales leaders from Business One partners, and sales leaders from Sage, Acumatica and Business Central partners who already sell to the same small-business owner.
