Bullish Timico Expands VoIP Earnings for
Converged Channel
Newark, UK – February 26, 2008 – Timico Ltd., an independent provider of converged
communication services to the business market, is moving up a gear through the start of
2008. Encouraged by the strong development of the converged communications
channel, Timico is increasing the earnings that its Business Partners’ can make by
selling its hosted VoIP service by up to £185 per extension in the first twelve months of a
customer’s contract. Made up of a combination of connection bonus, hardware earnings
and ongoing revenue share, the new package firmly positions Timico’s hosted VoIP
solution as a lucrative proposition for channel players who have woken up to the
opportunities of converged communications.
The enhanced first year earnings of £185 are based on an average revenue customer on
a mid-range tariff. Business Partners could potentially earn up to £275 per extension
across the life of a customer on a three year contract.
Furthermore, this new package makes selling Timico’s hosted VoIP service competitive
against the sale of key phone systems and small PBXs where the potential earnings
have, hitherto, been higher. This new earnings plan now positions the Timico hosted
VoIP service as an attractive option to both mobile and fixed line dealers.
“Our new VoIP reward programme is impressive. It should be a real eye-opener for
mobile and telecoms dealers who have yet to realise how much they could be earning
from selling VoIP services,” says Chris Tombs, Chief Executive of Timico Group. “We
have worked hard to develop the converged channel and have been rewarded by seeing
an increasing number of our Business Partners expand their operations from a single
service to offering a full suite of converged communications. These businesses are now
set to reap the benefits from both higher earnings and reduced customer churn.”
Peter Thornicroft, Director at Tectrix Solutions, comments: “More and more people are
asking us about VoIP and the Timico solution is becoming increasingly prevalent in our
product range. Few other companies are able to provide a true business-strength VoIP
product with a feature set that is comparable to a traditional phone system. Because it’s
such an excellent solution, I am more likely to keep customers for a good three to five
years, which then makes it financially worth while. We are in business for the long haul
and Timico VoIP enables us to build strong, long term relationships with customers.”
