Displaying and Assessing Prospective Partner Companies


When a company applies to be a partner, you need to assess how well it can work with your company to decide whether to enroll it as a partner.

There are many things you can do when you assess a potential partner company. You will begin by assessing the profile data entered when the company applied to be a part of the partner program. You may also want to read a Company Briefing, do a credit check, talk to key people in the company, and do many other offline activities.

When a company applies at your Siebel PRM Web site to be a partner, the company fills out a partner profile, including detailed information about the potential partner company's business. You begin the enrollment process by examining this information to understand this company's business model and see how it may fit in with your business goals.

You use the Prospective Partners list to view the companies that have applied to become your partners and their profiles. This list includes companies and individuals that have registered as partners on-line.

To view prospective partners and their profiles

  1. Navigate to the Partner Administration screen.
  2. From the Show drop-down list, choose Prospective Partners, if it is not already selected.
  3. The Prospective Partners list appears, with a list of companies that have applied to be partners.

  4. Select a partner company in the Prospective Partners list.
  5. Profile information about that company is displayed in the More Info form.
