Introduction to Leads & Deals

Let's get working with Leads and Deals

PartnerStack provides Lead and Deal objects that allow you and your partners to communicate about prospective customers. In this section, we'll cover the difference between Leads and Deals and how to configure both in your portal and integration suite.

In planning your implementation you identified the different sales motions your company uses when working with partners. It's important to consider these sales motions when working with Leads and Deals.
