MailBuild resellers earning thousands of dollars
Posted by David Greiner on October 8, 2007 10:44 AM
Back in February of this year, we launched a new billing system which let you guys set your own prices for each client, and then earn a profit every time they sent a campaign from your account. We followed this up in June by supporting an additional 4 currencies, making it easier for you to bill your client in their local currency.
So, what have the results been?
Before we launched this "set your own prices" system, we always encouraged you to pass our prices back on to your clients at a marked-up rate. We got the ocassional bit of feedback saying how well that was going, but we never really knew what sort of money our customers were earning reselling MailBuild.
Well, we do now! Our mark-up system has well and truly been embraced, and I'm wrapped to say that many of our customers are making thousands of dollars each from their MailBuild account. Here's a quick chart (with dollar values removed) showing the growth in profits you guys have been earning since we launched in February.

Earnings growth for MailBuild resellers
As you can see, growth in profits earnt has been skyrocketing each month and show no sign of slowing down. It's one thing knowing your customers might be doing well reselling your product, but knowing it for a fact is another thing altogether!
While this growth is fantastic, we're certainly not sitting on our hands. We plan on adding more currencies to the mix soon and will also be revisiting our pricing for some currencies to bring them more in line with today's exchange rates and make sure you can stay competitive in your own currency. If you're not already reselling MailBuild as your own product to your clients, then the chart above should be all the motivation you need.
For everyone who is already marking their clients up, we transferred your September profit into your PayPal account today - go buy yourself something nice.

Still lacking though:
- Support for more currencies
- Support for other administrative languages
For users who do not have English as their primary language, this would be a killer feature. For resellers in for instance Norway, where I am from, this would give us a chance to really resell and brand this as our own application.
With English only this of course is not possible. :)
Hey Tamber, thanks for the feedback. Can I ask which currencies you'd like to see supported?
