Reselling Backup.com.au

Backup.com.au is happy to credit much of its rapidly growing client base to an active community of I.T. professionals who see the benefits of online backups and recommend our service to their clients.

Our resellers no longer have to worry about whether or not their clients are swapping their tapes, taking data offsite, or checking their logs to confirm that their backups are even working.

There are no sales minimums or sliding scales for our resellers - you can pocket generous rewards for signing up even a single, small-scale client.

Our reseller process is very simple:

1. Register for access to the reseller section of our website
2. Complete the Mutual Confidentiality Deed (MCD) in the reseller section
3. Introduce your first client and collect your first commission - there are no minimum targets
4. Choose between a trailing commission or a generous, up-front reward for each successful introduction

Once you've returned the signed MCD, you'll be granted access to all the details of the commission rates and other resources to help you successfully recommend Backup.com.au online backups to your clients. We're also happy to set up a trial of the online backup for you. Experience for yourself how easy it is to backup online with Backup.com.au. 

Good luck and good selling.

Many of our resellers are presented with obstacles when presenting Backup.com.au to a client. Common concerns that clients have when considering an online backup.

Here is a list of easy responses to commonly voiced concerns your clients might have:

I have seen online backups for $5 per month. Why should I pay more?

There are many overseas companies that offer very cheap backups but consider the following:

• Backup.com.au is Australian owned and completely hosted in Australia. You are not sending your data to a faceless overseas company.
• Backup.com.au can retreive and deliver your data over night by courier in an a emergency at no charge.
• Backup.com.au doesn't charge extra to run the service on more than one computer.
• $5 backups can be very useful for a individual backing-up personal data, but businesses require a much faster response to emergencies. 

My data is very private, how can I trust it to someone outside of the business?

• Backup.com.au encrypts your data before transporting it offsite. You can customise that encryption with a secret passphrase so that not even Backup.com.au themselves can view the files.
  
• How are they storing their backups at the moment. USB Drive, DVD, tape-drive? These are often not secure at all.
  
• Where do they store there offsite backups? Briefcase, handbag, glovebox? Backup.com.au's datacentres are somewhat more secure than that!
