About This Automation

Referral programme management involves receiving partner submissions, validating eligibility, tracking deal progress, and processing commissions. Manual tracking across email, spreadsheets, and messaging creates delays, duplicate data entry, and missed partner notifications.

Automation captures referrals from all channels, validates them instantly against programme rules, tracks deal progress in real time, and calculates and pays commissions automatically. Partners receive immediate updates and payments arrive within one day of deal close.

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Referral Receivedtrigger

A partner submits a referral via email, web form, or. The automation captures the submission and extracts prospect name, company, and contact details.

2. Validate Eligibility

The automation checks the prospect against the CRM, verifies the partner is active, and confirms the referral meets programme criteria. Ineligible referrals are flagged for manual review.

3. Create Referral Record

A valid referral is logged automatically with partner name, prospect details, submission date, and a referral source tag.

4. Assign to Sales Rep

The automation routes the referral to the correct sales rep based on industry or region rules, and sends a notification with prospect summary.

5. Monitor Deal Progress

The automation watches the deal stage. When the deal moves to closed-won, it triggers commission calculation and payment workflow.

6. Calculate and Process Commission

The automation calculates the commission based on deal value and partner tier, then initiates a payout to the partner's registered account.

7. Notify Partner

An automated email is sent to the partner with the referral outcome, commission amount, and payment confirmation, closing the feedback loop.
