/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- XO Communications, Inc. (OTC:XOCM)
(BULLETIN BOARD: XOCM) today announced that Concentric, its small
and medium sized business hosting brand, has added two new referral
categories, Affiliates and Commissioned Agents, to its partner and
referral program and now offers some of the most competitive
referral payouts in the hosting industry. The enhancements expand
the revenue opportunities that Concentric offers to referral
partners. For no cost, anyone can sign-up as an Affiliate or a
Commissioned Agent and qualify for commissions on new accounts.
Affiliates earn $70 for each new customer that signs up for
qualifying hosting account. Commissioned Agents earn recurring
monthly commissions of 10 to 35 percent of the monthly booked
revenue for accounts signed up. "The $70 affiliate payment is very
competitive and our commission payment of up to 35 percent of
ongoing revenue is the highest we've seen in the industry," said
Barbara Branaman, vice president and general manager of XO's
hosting business unit. "As a referral partner of Concentric, they
can be assured that they are promoting a leading hosting and email
service that offers unsurpassed security, performance and
reliability all at an affordable price." With the addition of the
two new referral categories, the Concentric referral program now
offers four levels of participation for low or no cost: * Customer
Referral - Existing customers can refer friends, clients or
colleagues and earn a $50 payment each time someone they refer
signs up for a new account. * Affiliate - No fee to join and ideal
for people who want to refer friends or Web site traffic to
Concentric and earn a generous payment of $70 for each qualifying
new account. * Commissioned Agent - For web developers, VARs and
individuals that would like to earn large ongoing commissions of
10-35 percent of ongoing monthly recurring revenue for referred
accounts with no up front costs. * Private Label Reseller - A
turn-key, branded solution for businesses who would like to resell
hosting and email to their customer base and earn ongoing revenue
at the best wholesale rates. Referral partners can sign up online
for the Affiliate and Commissioned Agent programs for immediate
program activation at http://www.concentric/affiliatereseller.php.
Once a referral partner has joined a program, they receive access
to marketing materials, Web site banners, support information and
can immediately start to sign up referral business online or in
partnership with the Concentric hosting telesales team. Either way,
the customers they refer have instant account access. For more
