Q: What does this Portal do for my business?
ANS: Think of it as your complete sales team management system. It helps you manage partners who sell for you, track their sales, pay them commissions automatically, and give them tools to find more customers. It's like having a virtual sales office that works 24/7.

Q: Why should I use this instead of spreadsheets or emails?
ANS: The Portal automates everything - no more manual commission calculations, no more lost leads, no more confusion about who referred which customer. Everything is tracked automatically and partners can work independently.

Q: Who is OnBoardSoft?

Initial Steps

Q: How do I get started?
ANS: Simple 3-step process:

• We set up your branded portal (looks like your website)
• You add your products/services and commission rates
• You invite your first partners to join

Q: What do I need to provide?
ANS: Just basic info:

• Your company logo and colors
• List of products/services you sell
• How much commission you want to pay partners
• Contact information for support

Q: How long does setup take?
ANS: Most customers are up and running in 1-2 weeks. Simple setups can be done in just a few days.

Q: Can I change things later?
ANS: Yes! You can modify almost everything - add new products, change commission rates, update branding, add more users. The system is built to grow with your business.

Q: Do I need technical skills?
ANS: No. The admin panel is designed like familiar software. If you can use email or basic websites, you can manage this Portal. We also provide training and support.

Q: Who should have admin access?
ANS: Start with 2-3 key people:

• Business owner or manager (full access)
• Sales manager (partner management)
• Finance person (commission oversight)

Q: What if I already have partners selling for me?
ANS: Perfect! We can import your existing partner data and help transition them to the new system. Most partners love the upgrade because it gives them better tools and real-time access to their performance data.

Q: Do I need to change my current commission structure?
ANS: Not at all. The portal adapts to your existing commission model - whether it's flat rates, percentage-based, tiered commissions, or complex multi-level structures. We configure it to match exactly how you pay now.

Q: How do I know if this will work for my industry?
ANS: The portal is industry-agnostic and works for any business with partners, resellers, or agents. We've successfully deployed it for telecom, IT services, insurance, real estate, and many other industries.

Q: What's included in the initial setup fee?
ANS: Everything you need to launch:

• Portal configuration and branding
• Product/service setup
• User role configuration
• Payment gateway integration
• Initial training
• Testing environment
• Go-live support
