Links Business Group is seeking complimentary partners with whom to grow our respective businesses. The purpose of the Links Business Group Partner Network is quite simple: joint networking, marketing, contracting (where applicable,) link exchange, and salesmanship. Strength lies in numbers, especially in today's diverse, 24x7, real-time, global business climate.

Additionally, we are seeking qualified affiliates to help grow their own businesses, while expanding the base for Links Business Group products and services.

Benefits of a Links Business Group Partnership:

1. Increased sales potential and broader market exposure.
2. Improved mutual search positioning (via mutual marketing programs and link exchanges).
3. Virtual extension of your existing business and the potential to offer products and services under your own banner (affiliation).
4. **There are no fees of any kind for this program**
5. Ability to exchange ideas, talent, technology, clients, and vision with a dedicated peer support group. As an added bonus, partners will have access to an exclusive and private weblog, dedicated to the partnership network.
6. Affiliates enjoy a generous commission structure of up to 30% on product sales and 40% for sales of our service offerings. Partners enjoy many additional benefits, including integrated service offerings, branded products, and joint marketing.

Partnership Levels

There are two levels of partnership: Affiliate and Partner. The only difference between levels is that partnerships are full joint marketing and sales efforts, while affiliates resell our products and services in exchange for a generous commission. Many affiliates enjoy the autonomy of their own business models, or later choose to become full partners.

How to become a partner or affiliate

We ask that you consult the following checklist, and ensure that your company has met each of the following requirements:

1. Your company must have a verified postal mail address, phone number, valid company URL, and name-specific e-mail address. (No public domain addresses such as Yahoo, or Hotmail.)
