    Using a professionally developed associate system, would easily give a company’s referral lead generation a terrific boost, greatly increasing their existing and new sales, credibility, customer satisfaction, loyalty, profit margin, long-term business growth and company value. The commission payments on the back of such leads could be substantial.

    You're doing them a favour not the other way around

    Hi J
    Will not be cold calling just making the introductions as and where I can. I should have said the company are people I know personally and have been invited to think about the associate status, let are only selecting a few from a large pool of resources they have at their disposal. The company its self do not cold call and will not expect associates to do so either, which is nice...

    started a topic Independent Business Associate

    Independent Business Associate

    Hi All

    I have a contact in a company that wants me to become an Independent Business Associate.

    Basically wanting me to champion the cause of their company and try and sell in their service and products whenever I can during my daily routine.

    I will be paid a commission on any billed sales.

    My question is does anyone have experience of this and in particular have a Independent Business Associate contract example.

    Thanks for any help.

Working...
