"Reliable Quality," "Flexible Communication," and "Shared Growth" are the key keywords I believe define .
Hello, Pros! Today, we’d like to talk with the Pros who play a key role in partner selection and management to discuss Wadiz’s official partners.
First, who are Wadiz’s official partners?
Jung Jae-beom: To put it simply “a partner that’s great to officially work with when preparing a campaign on Wadiz.” . I believe that if you prepare your campaign with an official Wadiz partner, you can at least avoid issues related to poor quality or excessive costs. After all, these are partners selected by Wadiz based on strict criteria.

Your response really conveys your unwavering trust in your official partners. Could you tell us what process you used to select Wadiz’s official partners?
Jung Jae-beom, Project Director: The first round involved a quantitative evaluation based on application materials, and the second round involved a qualitative evaluation through interviews. During the document review, we thoroughly reviewed references of previously created product detail pages as well as feedback from Wadiz PDs (Project Directors) with experience collaborating with partners to to verify their professional capabilities. During the interview, we assessed partners’ work ethic and communication skills.

You mentioned that during the interviews, you focused on work attitude and communication skills. What kind of attitude and communication skills were you looking for in the partners you selected?
Jung Jae-beom: First of all , we selected partners who were flexible and who could accurately grasp the intent behind our interview questions. We did this because we believed the behavior they displayed during the interview would be the same behavior they would show the maker during the project. We put a lot of effort into asking questions designed to find a partner who could flexibly accommodate the maker’s requirements and accurately grasp the maker’s underlying intentions.
Park Eun-hyun: So “Consistent Quality,” “Flexible Communication,” and “Shared Growth”are the key qualities I look for in a Wadiz official partner. Since these partners are selected through a rigorous screening process, I believe you can expect consistently high-quality results. They are also people who can engage in flexible communication—clearly understanding what you, the maker, want while guiding the project toward a successful outcome. And most importantly, I believe they are people with a genuine desire to grow alongside you.

It seems you have set some strict criteria. What is the reason for these criteria? Do you plan to continue using the same criteria when selecting partners in the future?
Jung Jae-beom: The most fundamental reason is to build a ‘network of good partners’. I believe that the fundamental quality of a ‘good partner’ is communication skills. Personally, I believe that through dialogue with a collaborative partner, a 70-point result can be upgraded to a 100-point result. To maximize work performance to 100%, I focused on selecting partners who can effectively guide makers to articulate what they want and clearly explain what is possible and what is not.
Park Eun-hyun: We plan to further refine our criteria for selecting partners. To give a concrete example, we intend to include problem-solving skills—such as the ability to respond appropriately and resolve issues effectively even in situations with many variables— problem-solving skills. This is because various unpredictable situations can arise when partners are communicating with makers. Of course, we plan to consistently maintain the core principle of selecting “partners who possess expertise and a deep understanding of Wadiz.”.
Once the official partners have been selected, ongoing support will be crucial. Could you please share your plans for the future partner management system?
Park Eun-hyun: As an official partner, I think it’s important to help ensure the sustainability of your business. We need to I want to plan a diverse range of training programs. I want to create opportunities for partners who already possess strong capabilities to further enhance their skills a platformwhere partners who already possess strong capabilities can further enhance their skills. Therefore, I’d say our ultimate goal is to create a virtuous cycle by providing more opportunities to partners who clearly understand the mission of Wadiz’s Partner Business Team and maintain trust as official Wadiz partners.

Jung Jae-beom: Since a "high-quality partner network" is at the heart of our partner services , we plan to implement a "partner rating system" to ensure that, even after selection, Wadiz official partners remain valuable business partners for both Wadiz and the makers. We are also planning a “partner rating system.”. Since it’s difficult to verify everything perfectly through the selection process alone, we intend to manage partners appropriately through a combination of incentives and consequences as we work together in practice.
Throughout the interview, I could clearly sensewere clearly evident.
“We hope to see a wider variety of partners who can be officially utilized when using Wadiz” I hope this list grows more diverse, and that more makers and partners will join Wadiz and the Partner Business Team ‘grow together’ .
