Sub-agents
If you prefer the long-term benefit of the sub-agent program, NEF can work as a Master Agent to offer you price information and technical support for your sales opportunities. As the sub-agent, you are responsible for finding the opportunity, qualifying the lead, submitting a request to NEF for pricing, and closing the sale. NEF will provide you with pricing and network information from the carriers being quoted. In exchange for managing the sales cycle from beginning to end as a sub-agent, you will receive a residual commission payment based on the customer's monthly billing.
To qualify for payment as a sub-agent, you complete the following steps:
- Identify leads
- Qualify sales opportunities
- Request pricing from NEF via provided web interface
- Get a signed customer agreement
