Advantages of VoIP resellers
People now more than ever are computer savvy and
astute users of the internet and have taken to the idea of creating their own
home business or working from
home for an employer. Along with all the other great advances in technology has
come VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), which has some very distinct
advantages over more traditional business phone systems. It is easier to
install and in most cases can be as simple as plugging in a phone, especially
for people that have high speed cable connections like Comcast broadband or
Charter Internet. And there is no need
for running additional phone lines, as in days past, as IP phones can connect
right up to the same connection or Ethernet line that connects the PC to the
Internet. And since most home workers are using their PC over a broadband
service the connection is already there. VoIP is also a lot less expensive, with
plans that include unlimited calling to anywhere in the US or even Canada. And
International calls are a fraction of what a normal business would be
charged.
This is because the Internet is used to carry the conversation for most
of the connection with only the last little distance the actual part of the
connection being actually carried over the traditional telephone lines. All in all, when
comparing VoIP to traditional business phone accounts the difference is
significant, VoIP can easily save a customer 40-70%. And the advantages do not
end there.
Sell hosted VoIP services for even larger commissions.
All VoIP, both residential service and hosted business VoIP service will come
with a slew of features, all included in the monthly service fee. Unlike
traditional phone service where each extra feature is an additional charge, VoIP
will supply a long list on included features, such as voicemail, voicemail
to email, call forwarding and ring group settings, DND (Do Not Disturb),
complete call records, and for business hosted
VoIP accounts, an attendant and extension dialing. You may even find some
services offer conference calling, depending on the amount of participants,
otherwise an audio conferencing service may be required. Some services may also offer
the ability to accept inbound faxes directly to your number, which will then get
immediately sent via email as a PDF file.
Sell VoIP for little or no investment.
Small business accounts or Hosted VoIP bring bigger
commissions.
It's no wonder that VoIP is being used by so many, and especially home
entrepreneurs and home businesses. And there lies the advantage of selling VoIP
as a
reseller in a home based business; your market is huge and the potential great. And it's very
easy to start as a VoIP reseller, which is a better way than an affiliate
program. VoIP offers a great opportunity for its
resellers. And if that were not enough consider these beneficial aspects:
1. Limited or No $$ investment - You wont have to worry about investing a large
amount of money. In some cases, it may be none, while in others you may be
required to have service with the provider. (If this requirement exists, it's
really somewhat of a benefit as it allows you to learn the system, therefore
selling it better.)
2. Residual income - Some providers will give you a monthly reoccurring
percentage of your accounts. This will build future revenues, making the
investment in time pay off more and more each month.
3. Use of Your Strengths - Some people might be techies and like the latest,
greatest. Others are marketing specialists. Others have a niche market that they
can capture. Which ever describes you, becoming a reseller is a ready made fit.
4. Support and tools; At your Fingertips - From customers signing up for service
to making calls or expanding their service, the procedures should be
automated. Most of the harder stuff should have been done by the reseller and
they should be able to give you tools and support.
So, to recap, selling VoIP as a reseller is a viable home based business.
Whether you sell residential or hosted business accounts, you could be up and
making money in a short time. Learn one and then move to the more lucrative
business sales. It's all in the plan.
