Your Best Resellers are Selling in the Fog. Let's Bring Them into the Light.
You trust your distributors. But what about the hundreds of resellers they support? Right now, their deals, their wins, and their challenges are a blur. You only see the final number, not the story behind it. Journeybee clears the fog, connecting you to the true heartbeat of your entire channel.
The Difference is Clear: Life Before & After Journeybee
Does this sound familiar? A reseller lands a huge deal. You don't hear about it until the quarterly report. A different reseller is struggling with your messaging. You have no idea. You're left trying to manage a relationship based on spreadsheets and old data. You're celebrating wins months too late and wondering which partners actually need your help right now. This is costing your business. Managing a multi-tier channel is complex. Here's how a simple process changes.
The Old Way (Before Journeybee)
A reseller emails your distributor about a new deal. The distributor forwards the email to your channel manager. Your manager hunts for the right spreadsheet, enters the data, and then manually updates the CRM. Three days and a dozen emails later, the deal is finally in the system.
The New Way (With Journeybee)
A reseller registers the deal in a shared workspace, tagging their distributor. The deal is instantly visible to your channel manager and automatically synced to your CRM, with all three parties collaborating in the same space from minute one. The entire process takes less than 5 minutes.
Let's explore your
use cases together
The Gap Between Your Channel Strategy and Reality
You build a strategy based on growth targets and market potential. But your daily reality is reacting to operational friction: unexpected stockouts, product launches that don't land consistently across your network, and critical partner updates lost in a sea of email. When your connection to the final seller is indirect, you're forced to manage your channel using lagging indicators, always a step behind the market.
Focus on a More Predictable Channel
Building a great multi-tier channel shouldn't rely on fragmented data and assumptions. Let us show you how Journeybee can bring clarity, connection, and real collaboration to your entire partner ecosystem.
A Unified Partner Portal That Drives Engagement
Provide a central, modern hub for your entire channel. Partners can self-serve on everything from real-time price lists and product catalogs to marketing assets and operational guides, reducing their reliance on your internal teams.
Deep CRM Integration for True Pipeline Clarity
No need to switch between systems. Journeybee's deep, two-way integration with your CRM gives you a single pane of glass view into your entire channel pipeline. Track deals from reseller to distributor to close, all within the workflow your sales team already uses.
Intelligent Automation to Scale Your Operations
Automate the manual tasks that slow your channel down. From onboarding new partners with guided workflows to triggering updates based on deal progression, our automation engine lets you scale your program without scaling your headcount.
Comprehensive Training & Enablement
Equip your entire channel with the knowledge they need to succeed. Deliver training courses, certifications, and product updates directly through the platform, ensuring consistency across your multi-tier ecosystem.
The Tangible Business Impact
Moving to a unified platform delivers concrete results, not just abstract benefits.
Cut Your Operational Drag in Half
Imagine reducing the time your channel team spends on manual data entry and partner support emails by 50%. By providing partners with a self-service portal for pricing, inventory, and marketing assets, our customers see a dramatic drop in low-value support tickets and a massive increase in team productivity.
Reduce Costly Stockouts by up to 30%
Operating with real-time channel inventory and sales-out data, our clients move from reactive ordering to proactive supply chain management. This foresight allows them to optimize stock levels, leading to a significant reduction in costly stockouts on high-demand products.
Launch Products 2x Faster Across Your Entire Channel
Instead of a chaotic, staggered rollout, you can push new training, pricing, and marketing materials to every distributor and reseller simultaneously. This unified launch process gets your products to market in a fraction of the time, capturing crucial early sales.
Finally, See Who Your Real Champions Are
Somewhere in your reseller network is a partner who is an absolute rockstar with your product. Right now, their success is probably just a number on a spreadsheet. Journeybee lets you see their wins in real-time, so you can learn from them, reward them directly, and help your other partners become just as great.
Start Fast, Integrate Later: Launch on a Standalone Platform
Don't have a CRM or are not ready to connect it yet? No problem. Journeybee can act as the central command center for your entire distributor program right out of the box. Use it as your system-of-record to manage partners, run deal registrations, share resources, and deliver training through our built-in LMS. It's the fastest way to bring order and professionalism to your channel, with the power to integrate deeper when you're ready.
Deal Registration That Actually Works for Everyone
No more "Who has the latest update?" email chains. When a reseller registers a deal, they simply tag their distributor. Instantly, everyone involved is in the loop in a shared, collaborative space. It's simple, it's fast, and for the first time, it's completely transparent.

Frequently Asked Questions about Distribution Management
No. Journeybee is a partner management and collaboration layer that makes your ERP more powerful. While your ERP handles core transactions (like a 1,000-unit order to your distributor), Journeybee manages the relationships, collaboration, and data sharing that happens next—like tracking which of their 50 resellers sold those units and to which end customers. It connects your back-office systems to your entire sales ecosystem.
Adoption is our obsession, and we achieve it by making their lives easier. Journeybee isn't just another portal they have to log into; it gives distributors and their resellers a single, self-service place to get everything they need to sell more effectively. By giving a reseller one place to register a deal, get sales assets, and take a quick training module, you become the easiest and most profitable vendor they work with.
Absolutely. This is exactly what Journeybee was built for. Our platform manages the complexities of multi-party deal registration with features like automated routing, visibility rules, and de-duplication to prevent channel conflict. It ensures a transparent and conflict-free process for you, your distributors, and their downstream partners, so everyone knows who is protected on a deal.
Standard PRMs were built for simple, one-to-one reseller relationships. Journeybee is a next-generation platform engineered specifically for the complexity of the multi-tier distribution model. This means we manage three-party workflows (vendor-distributor-reseller) natively and have a deeper focus on operational data sharing, pass-through marketing funds, and collaborative planning that legacy PRMs simply can't handle.
We solve the "channel data gap" by making it easy for distributors to share point-of-sale (POS) and inventory data through automated integrations or simple, secure uploads. Our platform then cleanses, aggregates, and presents this data in easy-to-understand dashboards, giving you unprecedented visibility into which products are selling through which partners to which end customers.
Our fully integrated Learning Management System (LMS) is designed for multi-tier education. You can create training and certification programs and make them available to your distributors. They can then co-brand and cascade this training down to their entire reseller network, ensuring brand consistency and expert knowledge across thousands of partner employees you don't have a direct relationship with.
Our platform supports flexible, pass-through marketing development funds. You can allocate a master budget to a distributor, who can then run their own campaigns or allow their resellers to submit proposals against that central fund. Both you and the distributor can have visibility and approval rights, ensuring marketing spend is collaborative, strategic, and compliant at every tier of your channel.
Journeybee is built on a sophisticated, role-based security model. This ensures every user only sees the information relevant and appropriate for them. You (the vendor) see everything. A distributor sees only their own data and the data of their affiliated resellers. A reseller, in turn, sees only their own information. This guarantees that all data, from deal registrations to sales reports, is secure and confidential.
