Group Account Reseller Program (Buy large amount of storage at whole-sale price; resell at a much higher retail price)
Group Account Reseller Program is designed for IT Consultants, solution providers, system integrators and small resellers.
It is extremely easy to start with little up-front cost. Basically, you can order DriveHQ storage space and user licenses online,
then resell sub-user accounts / sub-groups and storage space to your customers. You can resell the service at the same DriveHQ service price, or at a lower price to better attract your customers.
To help resellers sell more services, DriveHQ offers "Custom Logo and Landing Page" service to
Group Account Resellers for free (A value of $149.99/year). Resellers can customize their own logos and logon/landing page as follows:
http://USERNAME.drivehq.com/
After login, the DriveHQ website logo will be changed to the reseller's logo. A demo reseller/enterprise account is available for potential resellers. Please contact
DriveHQ sales or support for more info.
Resellers usually bill their customers directly. A lot of resellers already offer other services to their customers.
So DriveHQ services can be bundled with their existing services. This offers the best flexibility in service pricing.
Resellers are free to price the service at a lower or higher price than DriveHQ. DriveHQ transaction / billing service
can also be used if the reseller cannot bill its customers directly.
By ordering large amount of storage space at the whole-sale price, you can resell our service to individual users or small business users with a very good profit margin, e.g:
If you order 100GB, 20-user group account service, you pay:
$699.99 + 119.99 = $819.98
If you resell the service to 20 users for 5GB each, then you can make:
$79.99 x 20 = $1599.8
You can start with a low subscription and upgrade your max storage / group user licenses at any time later without losing un-used service credit.
If you can resell our service to a lot of customers, please contact DriveHQ sales for more discount. In general,
- If you can resell to 3 customers or 100GB, we will offer you 10% off.
- If you can resell 200GB, we will offer you 20% off;
- If you can resell 300GB, we will offer you 25% off;
- If you can resell 500GB or more, we will offer you 30% off.
As you can see, if you resell to a lot of users, then your net profit margin can reach as much as 70%,
which is much higher than DriveHQ, and certainly much higher than if you setup your own service.
How to start Group Account Reseller Program?
"Group Account Reseller Program" can be setup instantly. To start, you just need to sign up a DriveHQ free account
(if you have not done so yet). You can then start approaching your potential customers. When they are ready to order the service, you can
then order a subscription from DriveHQ and provide a sub-user account to your customer. If your customer needs multiple user accounts, you can
provide a "sub-group administrator" account to your customer. As the group owner account, you have full control over all group members. You
can create/add/edit/delete/disable sub-users; allocate storage space and download bytes to sub-users; change sub-usernames and passwords,
logon as a sub-user to help trouble shoot your customer problems, etc. Your sub-group administrators can also create sub-users
for their own sub-groups.
Please note: (1) If you allocate storage space (and download bytes) to a sub-user, it reduces your main account storage space. To increase your main account
storage space, you can use the group admin feature to reset your sub-user's storage space. (2) When a user uploads/downloads files in a shared folder,
he/she uses the storage space and download bytes of the folder owner user. Please make sure the folder owner has enough storage space and download bytes.
Group account resellers can set their own service prices. They can bill their customers directly. If needed, DriveHQ can help bill the customers.
