Do you have any pricing plans for the clients? I am currently involved in organising an SEO proposal for a friends business that have nearly 50 clients and are looking at a similar service.

Appreciate it.

atxdm · 21st Sep 2012, 09:52 AM

Absolutely.

You can find out more about our plans and pricing here.

Just click the appropriate industry and relevant pricing information will be shown. To let you know, the only difference in pricing is under the Hotels vertical. Other than that, the plans are priced exactly the same.

this is going to sound weird but can you charge more for your services? got a lawyer client how much would you charge?

atxdm · 2nd Oct 2012, 12:20 PM

Hi shortandsave,

You can charge different prices if you'd like. Because our prices can be found publicly online, I wouldn't necessarily recommend marking them up a la carte, as it could upset your clients.

Currently, we're not serving the professional services vertical which Lawyers would fall into, but I'd expect them to be put back on the list in the next 3-4 months. For a list of supported verticals, visit » Social Media Services & Pricing Main Street Hub.

Feel free to reach out through Skype if you have any other questions!

Have you tried hiring a telemarketer to look for a reseller?

atxdm · 3rd Oct 2012, 08:20 AM

Hi Ambrking,

Not at the moment. Currently if I don't have enough inbound interest in a given month, I'll devote a portion of my day to calling potential candidates.

Interested in this. Would definitely like to market social media services to online and offline merchants.

Socialmediaatl · 13th Feb 2013, 01:25 AM

Problem with Main Street is that everything is done under their brand not yours and the ability to charge more is out the window with them due to the fact they sell against you.

atxdm · 13th Feb 2013, 09:29 AM

Hi Socialmediaatl,

That's not entirely true. While we do not white label in observance of the best possible client experience, we do allow all marketing and selling to be done in a co-branded way. In fact, we provide a landing page to all resellers wherein the reseller can include their logo and business name in equal size and positioning to our own.

Furthermore, clients that sign up through resellers receive 50% off their setup fee to incentivize them signing up through you. You have the ability to mark up our services at your own risk, however, we'd recommend you include our service as only part of an overall marketing solution because our prices are displayed on our website.

We do not "sell against you." Although our sales reps are calling into most major markets, channel conflict is mitigated by the reseller channel manager. If you have issues with that, you can simply contact him/her and they will take care of the issue. We plan on implementing a deal registration program to solve for this problem as we grow.

If you're truly interested in selling our product and being successful, we're committed to helping you achieve to what you aspire. Please contact us if you have any questions!

Best,
MSH
