Salesforce Certified B2B Solution Architect (Arch-301) Exam - Topic 1 Question 73 Discussion

Posted by Coleen on Jul 01, 2026 at 04:11 PM

Universal Containers (UC) acquired two companies. As part of its transformation and consolidation program, UC needs to bring all of its disparate partner strategies together and see what can be combined across all of its indirect sales channels. Each company currently has its own Salesforce environment utilizing Sales Cloud and Experience Cloud for Partners. Each company also follows its own unique business processes for partners. However, UC has recently developed a new vision and journey focused on a single indirect channel with a single Salesforce environment aligned to its corporate strategy.

Given UC's new journey for engaging its indirect channel, what are the next two steps the Solution Architect should recommend?

Choose 2 answers

Suggested Answer: A, C

To align the partner strategies of the acquired companies with UC's new vision for a single indirect channel, the Solution Architect should recommend:

A) Completely unify all the channel strategies under the acquiring company's brand and strategy. This ensures a cohesive approach and aligns with the goal of a unified partner strategy.

C) Create an adoption plan for the Direct Sales team to engage with the Indirect Sales team in a sell-with model within the new Partner Communities. This facilitates collaboration between direct and indirect sales channels, leveraging the strengths of both to drive sales in the unified environment.

Reference to these strategies can be found in Salesforce's best practices for managing partner relationships and communities, as detailed in Salesforce Partner Community documentation.
