SIMPLIFICATION OF PARTNER-KIT
Our "Partner Websites"
program has grown very slowly. There must be many reasons. I feel one of the
reasons could be the process of launching a partner website with help of our
Partner Kit!
We need to make this process so
simple that
- a non-technical man could launch it
- the launch could be accomplished in a few
minutes
- there is no need for a website to enter into
a lengthy communication with us prior to the launch
- any (potential / interested) website gets to
know how the program works and what benefit/money the website will get
and when, and for that what it has to do, all of these directly
from our own website, without having to phone us / write to us.
The "working" of the
whole program should be available on our website itself
- to obtain its User ID/Password etc.,
a website can directly fill-up
a small & simple PARTNER DATA SHEET directly on our website and get their
Password/User ID email from us within 24 hours (after we receive the PARTNER
DATA SHEET by email and check-out that the would-be partner website is WORTH
making our partner).
In respect of all of the points
mentioned above, I have found the "Associate Program" of
AMAZON.com to be the best.
Since we have not become their
"associate" yet, I have not been able to see/view their special page
ASSOCIATE CENTRAL
where each partner can see/view STATISTICS
pertaining to his own website.
We should see this page (and
learn from it), even if it means that we have to become an "Associate"
of Amazon.com. I strongly recommend this.
But there is one respect in which
we should do better than Amazon.
This is in respect of PARTNER
STATISTICS TABULATIONS.
A potential/interested partner
should be able to see/view BEFOREHAND, all the (blank) tabulations, so
that
- he knows (and does not have to guess) what
all statistics will he get to see about the business that he will bring to
us thru his website
- he is convinced about our transparency (no
golmal!). He does not have to take our word for it!
We could even "populate"
this DEMO TABULATIONS with some fictitious figures to give an appearance of
reality / authenticity!
I think this feature itself will
become a big factor in convincing potential/interested partners to join our
program.
If there are some websites, which
still want to give a unique/different /own "look" to the pages
that they pull from our server, we could give them our existing partner-kit (but
with just one template – not 26 templates!). In this case, could we
consider that the template incorporates our own SIDE BAR?
If this could be done, a visitor
could get to see our entire site - and not just a few pages of our site.
For Cyber Cafes / Partner
websites and Placement Agencies, we also wish to introduce a payment of Rs.
5/= for each resume coming thru them, provided the resume belongs to EXPERIENCED
IT-Professional.
This scheme (incentive)
will apply only for the first 12 months (from date of becoming an ALLY).
This payment will be in addition
to whatever each partner is entitled to (as % of our fees) in case of "placement/appointment"
of his candidate.
