Default Re: Giving Away Our Video Chat Platform - Good or Bad?

Hi Everyone,

I have an idea that I would like to bounce around.

When we install the basic LiveCamNetwork system, we include a fully functional website as well, but we do not include customization. Instead, we ask that the customers upgrade their licenses, or do the customization themselves.

The problem is that many of our customers are newbies (especially when it comes to design) so they may not posess the skillset required to make an effective site.

Therefore, what I would like to do is begin referring customers out to designers. There are a couple of ways that I can think of to do this. We could :

- Advertise web designers inside of the customer administrator program
- Advertise web designers on our site, 2Much.net
- "Refer" designers to customers (directly, or in exchange for a finders fee)
- Charge customers up-front and then sub-contract the designers

The method I like the best is to simply refer customers to other designers, and let the deals be made directly between the two. What we would want in exchange would be referrals back.

Any designers here have any opinions on this?

Thanks in advance
