Partners                                         

Become an Underground Colocation Partner and earn recurring commissons on your sales.

Partnership Options

 

To accommodate many different categories and sizes of partners, Underground Colocation offers three levels of participation. These levels are designed to create a fit for our partners based on key criteria when offering our solutions. Review the following three levels of participation to see which fits best.   

 

Referral Partner

 

Referral Partners are interested in recommending our solutions to their clients for added value to other products and services. This partner level works well for Consultants, Systems Integrators, CPAs, and small firms that don�t have the staff to offer support required in the other partner categories.

Referral Partners are focused on consulting services and facilitating introductions to potential clients. They have limited involvement in the solution process. Referral partners provide customers with introductory information about Underground Colocation and related services.

 

Solution Partner

 

Solution Partners are generally VARs, ISPs, ASPs, ISV's or Integrators. They provide extensive customer-focused solutions and services. Solution Partners provide customers with information on services provided by Underground Colocation. Additionally, sales materials, sales support, and service support are provided by Solution Partners to their clients. Solution Partners must provide their end-users with sales and service support.

 

Premier Partner

 

Premier Partners are similar to Solution Partners but prefer to brand our services and market them direct to end users. This partner level is especially applicable to software developers, ISP's, ASP's and ISV's.

Sales materials, sales support, and service support are provided by Premier Partners to their clients. Monthly recurring revenue requirement must be met in order to reach this partner level. Premier Partners must provide their end-users with sales and service support.

 

*Partner Commissions:

Referral Partner One-time pay-out = one month gross services revenue
Solution Partner 15 percent of gross (recurring)
**Premier Partner 20 percent of gross (recurring)

 

 * Some of our services are not included in commission pay-outs. These commonly include custom setup fees, and software licensing. Some of our services have a cost factor and commission amount would be calculated on profit, not gross billing dollars.

 

** Premier Partners must maintain a minimum monthly revenue requirement, currently $1,000. When applying to become an Underground Colocation Partner, it may be necessary to apply as a Solution Partner and then change categories once revenue requirements have been met.
