There are two options within the filter
Filtering functionality includes both "AND" and "OR" filters. If you select "AND" filters, the Partners list will only show Partners that have every Tag you selected. If you select "OR" filters, the Partners list will show Partners that have at least one of the Tags you selected.
😎 Pro Tip
Here a few suggested Tags:
Partner Type - Segment technology, agency, referral, reseller, solution, platform, and strategic partners.
Tier - Prioritize co-marketing and co-selling motions with your top tier partners
Partner Account Manager - View partners assigned to you or other partner managers on your team
Geographic Region - Identify local, regional, or global partners
Lifecycle Stage - Keep track of partners' progression through lifecycle stages so you can signal to your internal teams when partners are "Go-To-Market Ready."
Partner Status - Identify active vs inactive partners so you know where to focus your time and resources.
Specialization - Organize partners by their specialization (e.g. software development, media, PR, e-commerce, Video Production, Web Design).
