Introduction
The ZINFI Partner Co-Selling Management application enables partners to collaboratively engage with vendors on shared opportunities through a single, structured platform. It provides end-to-end visibility into Co-Sell deals, streamlines collaboration, and ensures alignment throughout the deal lifecycle — from creation to approval and closure.
Using the Co-Sell Hub, partners can create and manage Co-Sell opportunities, track deal progress, collaborate through tasks and notes, share documents, and participate in approval workflows.
Co-Sell Hub
