While affiliate programs were once the only way to make money through web host providers, the introduction of white label reseller programs has made it possible for individuals to essentially start their own business with the help of already established providers. For resellers participating in these programs, however, there are very few resources available for showing them how to sell cloud services.
The purpose of this article is to provide resellers with a brief overview of what it takes to sell cloud services. Let’s take a look:
Choose the Right Program Provider
As a reseller, you can save yourself a lot of stress down the road by doing your homework ahead of time and choosing the right program provider. When going through the decision process, be sure to go with a provider that offers plenty of resources to help you be successful.
Build a Strong Marketing Plan
If you become a white label reseller, you will be in a position where you will be controlling the marketing for your business. With this in mind, you need to set yourself up for success from the very beginning by building a strong marketing plan. Without the ability to bring in customers, you will obviously not be able to generate revenue to invest and grow your business.
Build a System for Customer Support
While you will more than likely receive customer support from the provider you choose, you should be aware that most providers require that you offer your own customer service for your customers. Since you will more than likely have limited resources when you first become a white label reseller, it is important that you develop a system that allows you to handle customer issues in an efficient manner. One of the best ways to do this is by developing a ticket system.

Hopefully this article provided you with a better idea of how to sell cloud services as a reseller. While the information presented was quite brief, honing in on the things that have been discussed and continuing to educate yourself should set you up for a much better chance of success.
