Lead distribution is the practice of managing and maturing both inbound and outbound sales
leads with channel partners who are selling on your behalf. Many companies sell their products
through partners. With the lead distribution process, companies source leads and pass them to
their partners for follow-up and sales. Lead distribution is also known as lead pass.
Other companies rely on their partners to source leads and register them with the company. This
process is known as deal registration. The channel manager checks in the Salesforce org to make
sure that the submitted lead does not create channel conflict with other partners.
Assign Leads to Partners You can assign leads to partners or allow partners to drive their own lead queue.
Configure Lead Distribution in Partner Central Automatically pass on leads acquired from your web site, marketing campaigns, or referral programs using lead distribution. Partner Central lets you share a common pool of leads with your channel partners on a partner site using the lead inbox.
Configure Deal Registration in Partner Central Deal registration programs involve resellers registering deals with their vendor. Vendors in turn provide extra margins to the reseller for providing early pipeline visibility for these deals and keeping out competitors. Once a deal is registered, other resellers or your direct sales team can’t compete for the registered deal.
