Business Partners

Address Meister Business Partners start in one of 3 categories:

1. Reseller — If you or your firm is in the business of reselling software, you're probably looking for ways to enhance your offerings to include web services. Address Meister is the right choice if you're looking for:

• A learning curve for your sales force that makes them ready to complete orders in 1 hour.
• An easy ancillary sale to your current offerings. Address Meister is applicable to anyone wishing to manage postal addresses of customers, vendors, members, marketing contacts, that is, applicable to just about every one of your customers.
• A quick sale since entry-level subscription pricing is within almost everyone's immediate signature authority.
• A way out of collecting money. Address Meister does that for you.

Would you like a sale that keeps paying every month?

2. Software Integrator - One advantage of a web service is how easily it integrates with other software. If you need to enter a postal address as part of using your software, would you like to make sure the address is correct? Let us show you how we can provide that as a component faster, easier, cheaper, and more reliably than doing it yourself.

3. Value Added Service Provider — If you provide mailing services or marketing services where postal mail has a role, consider the competitive advantage to increasing the accuracy of the addresses through Address Meister. You begin by increasing constructive entanglement with your client -- right from the online forms they use to gather addresses, you insert a verification tool that is part of your solution package. Addresses your client obtains from other sources (warranty cards, purchased lists, trade shows, etc.), you gain a verification role early in the process. And finally, at the traditional point of mailings, you cam provide a CASS Certified mailing that saves your client postage.

You can either resell the Address Meister account to your clients, or integrate them into your account using Address Meister's sub-account allocation system -- under your branded package in either case.

If you are a Address Meister trail blazer, we invite you to join our Business Partners. We are commited to helping uncover new Address Meister applications in areas that are profitable for our Business Partners.

The process begins with an application form you use to introduce yourself and your plans. You are assigned to a Partner Advocate who responds by either approving your application or suggesting ways to improve your value proposition.

Once onboard, we assign you a RefCode that we use to track your commissions. Whenever a Address Meister customer signs up, they can enter a RefCode as shown to the right. This identifies them as your customer.

As a Business Partner, you are also assigned an account on our members-only Business Portal section. With your RefCode and a password, you will see a page like the one below showing your sales commissions, as well as a place to set  your prices for Address Meister sales.

Besides a competitive commission structure, we can provide the following to help build your Address Meister community:

1. Custom website development addressing your specialized community with a URL like www.AddressMeister.com/MySpecialty. This may include focused content you provide and signup forms automatically channeling into your commission structure.
2. Development of custom demos structured like our baseline demo, but focused on your specialized Address Meister application area — and with the slides linking to your signup form.
3. Co-development of marketing collateral like Powerpoint slides.
4. Published authors ready to help you produce newsworthy articles for your community's trade magazines.

What are the commission rates?

These are negotiated person-to-person and depend on factors like how well matched your community is to Address Meister, how much you will do to make things happen, what you plan to charge, etc.

Value Added Service Providers set their own startup and monthly commission rates. A mail campaign contractor may charge $2000 per month, for example, and we retain $100/mo to deliver Address Meister and to collect and pass on the Value Added Service Provider's $1900 automatically.

Can I have people I train work at this with me?

Yes. And we can negotiate a separate RefCode for each person you bring aboard such that you share in their commission structure. If John Smith (RefCode=JS), for example, brings Linda Lewis aboard, her RefCode would be JS-LL. Each time a sale goes through for RefCode JS-LL, Linda Lewis gets her commission and so does John Smith. Such second-level commissions (to John Smith) are typically 2% to 10%.

This borrows concepts from multilevel marketing, but remember a major difference. Whereas most multilevel marketing programs minimize the importance of the product being sold (often just household commodities) relative to their compensation formulas, we look first at the product. Our business model is not based on soap suds — it is built on Address Meister's rock-solid value proposition and your specialized contribution.

How often can I change my prices?

As often as you wish, every sale if you wish. If you prefer to walk your customers through the signup process, for example, you can have a price waiting for them that reflects your services to that particular customer and their payment expectations.
