Caple Sales Partner ProgramBecome a Caple Sales Partner: Bring Opportunities, Create Value, Earn More
Introduce furniture and woodworking manufacturers to Caple and help us close the business. Caple supports you with technology, demonstrations, quotations, installation, training and after-sales service, so you earn without investing in stock or a service team.
How the Sales Partner Program works
Simple, transparent and performance-driven. Every opportunity follows the same five steps.
Lead approval
Caple checks the opportunity and registers it in the partner's name.
Help us sell
Join customer visits, discussions, demonstrations and commercial follow-up.
Caple delivers
Caple handles the quotation, supply, installation, training and service.
You earn
Earnings are paid on approved opportunities, according to your role and Caple's partner policy.
Built on the COCO model: company-owned, company-operated
In retail and distribution, COCO means the company owns and operates every customer-facing asset. Caple applies the same principle to machinery sales: Caple owns the stock, demonstration centre, billing, installation and service, while partners contribute relationships and local market knowledge.
| Activity | Caple (owns and operates) | Sales Partner (contributes) |
|---|---|---|
| Customer relationship | Registers the account and manages the contract | Introduces the customer and builds trust |
| Product and application | Machine selection, technical advice and factory layout | Shares the customer's needs and production goals |
| Demonstration | Centre of Excellence at Pelhar and Delhi showroom | Brings the customer to the demonstration |
| Quotation and pricing | Issues every quotation, price and commercial term | Supports follow-up; does not commit price or terms |
| Order, billing and payment | Order confirmation, GST invoice and collection | Helps keep the customer engaged until closure |
| Supply, installation and training | Import, dispatch, installation, commissioning and operator training | Optional site coordination |
| After-sales service and spares | Service engineers, spares and warranty support | Passes on customer feedback |
The result for partners: no investment, no inventory and no service infrastructure.
How COCO compares with other popular channel models
Businesses grow through a few well-known partner models. Each one shifts ownership, investment and risk differently.
| Model | Who owns the assets | Who operates | Partner investment | Typical example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| COCO: company-owned, company-operated | Company | Company | None | Caple Sales Partner Program |
| COFO: company-owned, franchise-operated | Company | Partner | Low to medium | Partner runs a company-owned outlet |
| FOCO: franchise-owned, company-operated | Partner | Company | Medium to high | Investor-owned site run by the brand |
| FOFO: franchise-owned, franchise-operated | Partner | Partner | High | Classic dealer or franchise showroom |
| Referral / agency | Company | Company | None | Commission-based introducer or agent |
| Distributor / dealer | Partner (buys stock) | Partner | High | Stock-holding regional dealer |
The Caple Sales Partner Program combines the COCO model with an agency-style earning structure, so partners can start immediately without capital risk.
