I believe a 15% share for resellers would be generous. It would be a great revenue boost once Portico is in place for clients especially considering possible reocurring revenues, the resellers may be responsible also for account maintenance? Its a no brainer for a reseller to push Portico! After all its what they do! I would first contact all my current client base and offer them the demo and a first hand look. I believe marketing will start very soon Im anxious to see the campaign as Im sure its already in the final stages of preparation. Sea Otter I felt your napkin numbers were conservative and made for some interesting reading! Here is more. 24,000 new users per month 100 resellers 24 selling days per month 24000/24 = 1000 per day /100 resellers = 10 per reseller/10 hr. work day 1 new user sold per hour Of course this is to simplistic. Remember other marketing avenues that will generate interest! TV, Radio, News paper Internet Direct sales: Resellers to Corp. accounts, current clients, walk in business, referrals. Resellers already have a marketing force in place! Direct mail *Billboards, buses, cabs. All create brand awareness and contribute to sales and revenue growth if its effective I see 24,000 new users per month as easily attainable! I see calm before the storm! I will be unavailable for awhile and want to wish all my fellow GMGC fans a healthy GOOD LUCK! Saluting you now! Rob
