We are a UK based web development agency specialising in bespoke programming for websites. Typically I will handle both the project management side and sales but due to taking on a large project I dont really have the time required to spend on the initial phases of the sales process. I was therefore wondering if there would be any interest from the guys here on self employed roles as qualified lead generators? The idea is that you guys go out and find suitable clients, deal with the initial questions and answers before handing over to us to ultimately close the deal and handle the project. Whilst discussing projects with potential clients you will be acting as Astaroth Solutions. Whats in it for you? Firstly you get your own email address at Astaroth Solutions (WOW! - but it will help - note it will be monitored by us and so not for personal use) and slightly more importantly 10% of all sales you generate. Our projects typically range from $1,000 to $20,000 so your payment will typically be $100 to $2,000 for only having found the person, ensured they are suitable clients for us and warmed them up. Payment will be made once we have cleared funds for the deposit at month end and can be made by cheque in £ or PayPal in $ or £. The sort of work we look for is specialist site creation in .Net... we are not interested in pure design, straight ecommerce, flash or PHP. Given our rates our clients are typically from the USA or UK but this isnt a requirement. Where do you find the clients? Thats up to you, the only place where you cannot look is Guru.com. Given that it will still take some of our time we would want a maxium of 5 people at any one time, your english must be perfect and must live to our values (ie honest, no hard sell etc)
Hmm, interesting, on another UK based forum got 40+ messages of interest but not a single comment here... would have thought it would have had more appeal here than on the other forum too
It was just a forum for SMEs - obvious option for them to cross sell to clients however the being our rep doesnt lend itself to that and the majority werent in complimentary industries
