Your clients already ask you how to send large files safely.
You look after twenty, fifty, eighty SMEs. You already set up servers and already invoice maintenance. LightSend is a product you can add without changing your business — 30 to 41 per cent margin, no minimum turnover, no joining fee.
A product that falls into the business you already run.
Nothing new to learn, nobody new to hire. It is a PHP application on ordinary web hosting — the same kind of installation you do every week.
The question comes anyway
Since the revised data protection act your clients ask where their data sits. Whoever has no answer today loses the conversation to someone who does.
You keep the client
You sell, you install, you handle the first line. We never see your end client and never approach them — they are yours.
Recurring, not one-off
An annual licence renews itself. Twenty clients are twenty invoices a year you do not have to sell again — plus the maintenance you bill anyway.
What you buy, what you keep.
The end-client price is our list price — you may sell above it when you include setup and support. Please not below: that damages the market for every partner, yourself included.
| Active licences | Your cost | Your margin | End client |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 – 4 licences | CHF 480 | 30 % | CHF 690 |
| 5 – 14 licences | CHF 450 | 35 % | CHF 690 |
| 15 licences and up | CHF 410 | 41 % | CHF 690 |
| Subscription, we operate | 20 % recurring | — | List price |
On subscriptions the margin is smaller because we carry operation, backup and availability — in exchange it returns every month. Twenty clients on the middle tier come to CHF 4752 a year without you touching a server.
Who does what.
Short enough to fit on a two-page contract.
You get
Price list and talking points. A free installation for demonstrations and your own use. A technical contact at our end — a person, not a form. Advance notice of updates so you can prepare your clients.
You provide
Installation and initial setup at the client. First-line support — you answer questions about use, you report product faults to us. Payment in advance until a business relationship exists.
What we do not require
No minimum turnover. No joining fee. No exclusivity — you may keep offering whatever you like. All three would scare off precisely the firms that matter here.
What partners ask first.
Who owns the client when they change IT provider?
Who does support?
How long does an installation take?
Can we offer it under our own name?
How do we start?
