Become a Reseller for $59.99!

Xila Broadband is built on the premise that we can and will welcome any business to the opportunity to offer High Speed DSL & VoIP under their own brand name. Smaller businesses and many larger businesses alike can avoid going directly to the ILEC or carrier. Our program offers no minimum commitments and does not require a large up-front deposit or any deposit at all.

Regardless if your business is large or small the Xila reseller solution is fit for you. We like to think about ourselves as a pair of flexible jeans. :)

We've now raised our traditional annual plan to $389.99.

But, in light of the recession, we're happy to introduce the Monthly Plan*.



- One-time setup fee of $59.99
- Then pay only $22.99 monthly

More Details Here



The monthly option includes access to everything that makes us Xila, including:

Provision DSL and VoIP services 24/7 with BACC
Your own Custom Retail Website
Private Label your own High Speed DSL service in 35 States
Private Label your own Digital Phone or VoIP service, DID's available everywhere!

VoIP Unlimited Plans Now Available As Seperate Products

As much requested by many of our resellers, we have now enabled the ability to activate VoIP outside of bundle plans. Our VoIP only offering includes a suite of unlimited plans, all with DID's included.

You may view our VoIP plans for resellers at the link below. We still strongly believe however that promoting bundle plans will generate the most income for our resellers, and in fact it has been proven over and over again since their release, but for those of you who wish to focus on VoIP or offer VoIP to customers that already have broadband service and do not want to swtich, your now free to do so.

Also keep in mind we do offer Analog Telephone Adapters as part of our drop shipping program, the latest being the GrandStream HT 502, a very nice looking and easy to use device which also offers a built-in router.

Thanks!

Xila Broadband Bundle Plan Margin Example

As you may know we are integrating VOIP with the Xila Broadband system allowing clients to offer bundles of DSL and home telephone for one flat monthly fee. We went around a few of the big guys web site and did some price comparisons. Below is how your bundles compare with theirs.




Starting with AT&T
We used Dallas as the location on the AT&T web site so the offer used in the example below may differ a little depending on location.

As you can see AT&T is offering it's lowest DSL package with unlimited US long distance for just $60 a month.

Compare that to our bundles available in AT&T areas.


XV59990 ATTTAS 1.5Mbps DSL w/ Unlimited Home Phone Bundle 1 PPPoE IP(s) R $44.95


The Xila Broadband bundle plan above includes 1.5Mbps DSL with Unlimited Home Phone. And unlinke AT&T's bundle also includes Unlimited Calling to Canada. If you were to offer this plan at the same price AT&T is in the example ($60) above you would generate $15.05 from each subscriber. This is an amazaing margin. In addition, with that much room to flex your price you can also easily undercut AT&T in this example.

For AT&T areas it's imortant to keep in mind the customer would still need a home phone with them to get your DSL in the first place so you would basically sell your bundle in these locations as a second / unlimited long distance line solution. The customer would likely want the lowest home telephone pricing available in their area from AT&T.


Moving on to Comcast
Comcast offers their phone and internet bundles ONLY when the customer also has digital cable, it's an add on (at least on their web site). As you can see from the image to the right the bundle even as an add on to digital cable is $69.00 a month.

See below for comparison to a Verizon Dry Loop bundle.








XV60044 VERTAS 768Kbps DSL w/ Unlimited Home Phone Bundle 1 PPPoE IP(s) R $47.95


If you were to offer the above Wholesale plan for $59.99 a month (thats $10 less that the Comcast bundle used in our example) you would generate a income of $12.04 from each customer. Again, another great margin with room for flexibility.


In our other research our bundle plans will also allow you to beat out Earthlink in just about all areas they offer bundled DSL and home phone service.

Verizon offers bundled phone & internet for $49.99 a month. This price can be matched with our bundle plan ID XV59996 in VER areas (dry loop) and with XV60044 in VERTAS areas (dry loop). Your margins will be a little smaller when trying to match Verizons current offer however it is a temporary offer in which the customer would save $25 a month.

If you have any questions about the bundle plans please contact your sales rep. You can create your custom bundle plans now from within BACC. VOIP is expected to be fully integrated and ready to activate from BACC within 2-3 weeks.

Lastly, we'd like to remind everyone that customers who get higher speed plans tend to stay customers longer, these new plans (5MB and 7.1MB) are fast plans, and we highly advise trying to upsel your customers to prevent churn.

Drop Ship Modems Directly to Your Customers!

Today we are introduing a drop shipping tool which will allow you to have a modem sent directly to your customer, no more ordering modems in bulk.

We are very happy to introduce this tool which hopefully encourages you to place more orders with us. To use the drop shipping tool you must first place a order for DSL for a customer. You can view detailed instructions on using the new drop ship tool on our website.

http://www.xilabroadband.com/wholesale-dsl/wholesale-dsl-modems/

Modems are shipped with the return address of your business (as on file in BACC) and with a from name of "DSL Order Fulfillment". Your customer will NOT know that Xila Broadband shipped them the modem. Once an activation date has been assigned on the DSL order we will promptly ship the modem, the tracking number will be available on the customers account via BACC for reference.

You may still order modems from us in bulk by contacting your sales rep, the order modem option on the reseller menu however is being removed from BACC.

If you do not, your account may be closed.

In other news . . we will also introduce new plans tomorrow for the Verizon (VER) network for the 1000/384Kbps speeds, you can check the web site and BACC tomorrow to see the pricing on these plans.

Enough ranting . . take a look at your new pricing:
