Power pricing has been developed with Resellers in mind to allow you to margin from the lowest possible rate.
Standard Pricing: $0 per month, 8.9c per message and $25 per month virtual numbers.
Power Pricing: $49 per month, 6.9c per message and $19 per month virtual numbers.
Essentially, Burst SMS calculates our cost of sending SMS at 6.9c after business expenses. So we effectively cap our total SMS margin per reseller at $49 per month. This gives you the opportunity to resell from the lowest possible price without any minimum commitment other than $49.
The break even point with our Standard Pricing is around 2500 messages per month across all of your clients if you are charging a 2c margin.
Example 1: Standard Pricing - Low Volume
Cost SMS price 8.9c. Your SMS Price 10.9c.
Client volume 1500 = cost $133.50 your total margin $30.00
Example 2: Power Pricing - Low Volume
Cost SMS price 6.9c + $49.00. Your SMS Price 10.9c.
Client volume 1500 = cost $152.50 your total margin $11.00
Example 3: Standard Pricing - High Volume
Cost SMS price 8.9c. Your SMS Price 10.9c.
Client volume 5000 = cost $445.00 your total margin $100.00
Example 4: Power Pricing - High Volume
Cost SMS price 6.9c + $49.00. Your SMS Price 10.9c.
Client volume 5000 = cost $394.00 your total margin $151.00
As you can see, when moving to higher volumes the Power Pricing really starts to create great profits for you as a reseller. Best of all is that there is no minimum contract so if you just have one giant campaign to go out a year you just pay the monthly fee for that month and get Power Pricing rates with no commitment to continue after the end of that month.
To switch between Standard and Power pricing simply use the Pricing Model selector in your billing section.
When you switch to Power pricing $49.00 will be immediately deducted from your account and then billed on the same day each month until you change it back. You will receive an email a few days before renewal to give you the chance to cancel it if you want.
