Referral partner programs?
Someone on the forum suggested this to me a few years ago, telling me they'd give a commission per closed deal simply for a referral.
From fairly casual search,they offer more money then any product or service I could produce on my own from scratch at the moment so I thought it would be worth it to dig deeper.
My questions are:
What is the best way to evaluate said program?
One of the appeal is that some brand companies like Oracle have them also so I figure in this case it should be a safe bet. I was advised to pull up the Gartner Quadrant (which I have access to) and select companies in the "Leader" quadrant.
Beside this and a google search, is there anyplace else or any other criteria I should check?
What's the best way to get accepted? I could be mistaken. it seems most expect fairly warm leads from tech companies and IT consultants (though importantly, it does not require technical certification). I also get the impression the money really is in the mid to large company range.
What would happen if I sought a white label with the expectation the bulk of the income would be through the referral program? Or is this unnescessary?
Thoughts? Does anyone have experience with these programs?
