I want to thank you for expressing an interest in developing a Product Reseller arrangement with magicJack LP. As you know, we are a matter of days away from the official product launch of the magicJack™! The entire magicJack LP team is thrilled at the amazing response received thus far from our proprietary USB telephony device -- magicJack™.

Within the next several weeks, we will be launching a major media and advertising campaign that will include a short-form and long-form Infomercial planned to air in every major city in the US. In addition, we have contracted with a national Direct Mail company to rollout DM ads to households throughout the country. Finally, we are developing strategic relationships with global, multi-billion dollar Product Distributors to assist us in placing the magicJack™ in retail locations all over the world.

As you can appreciate, we are laser focused on developing our product and our brand -- therefore, we'll maintain tight control over how the magicJack™ is positioned in the marketplace. With that said, we're also very eager to sell as many magicJacks as possible and to build relationships with motivated resellers who can assist us in achieving our product sales objectives.

Our resellers will be required to execute a standard and non-negotiable reseller agreement directly with magicJack LP. The reseller structure provides an opportunity to resell the magicJack™ device, only -- no commissions are paid under the reseller program. The reseller income earned from our program will be derived from the margin you build into the resale price of the magicJack™device. No additional products or offerings are available for resale at this time. As a contracted reseller, you will be required to order a minimum volume of 1,000 magicJacks, at a wholesale price based on the volume of units purchased. We will require 100% pre-payment for the magicJacks prior to our shipping them to you.

With the aforementioned in mind, we are interested in establishing a reseller arrangement if you're willing to agree to the following terms.

* Minimum order of 1,000 magicJacks at $30.00/unit. If you resell the magicJack™ for a price of $39.95 per unit, you will earn up to $9.95/unit. Additional price discounts will be offered for volume commitments of 5,000 units and 10,000+ units.

* 100% Pre-payment prior to shipment: $30,000 paid by wire transfer or certified check.

* Reseller may not sell the magicJack™ directly to any retailers.

* Reseller may not sell the magicJack™via online auction sites (i.e. eBay)

* No Direct Mail or Product Advertising can be produced by Reseller without prior written consent of magicJack LP.

* Independent Reseller website sales are prohibited without the prior written consent of magicJack LP.

* magicJack LP may reject Purchase Orders at any time and at it's own discretion.

In addition to those listed above, the magicJack LP Reseller agreement has terms and conditions that must be adhered to by our Reseller partners. magicJack LP may terminate the arrangement at any time and without notice.

So...does that mean I can sell them at my B&M? What if my B&M has a website...for 30G...I can't imagine a give-away promo. Perhaps if I were selling overseas vacations? Timeshares? I don't quite see the service being stable enough yet for promotion, but IF it was, a gift-bag present to purchasers of a vacation or holiday property might work...

Who could make money at this $30K investment? For a $10 profit margin, you need to fund advertising, sales, order processing, product fulfillment, and customer service. You'd make a few more dollars on shipping/handling if direct marketing was used. There are so many restrictions and no exclussivity. You can be very certain that if WalMart picks it up, sell price will be under $39 and they will negotiate a significantly bettter cost than $30.

This info above is very old. The new program allows minimum purchases of 50 units but still has some tight restrictions (No eBay, no Adwords, etc) It is handled very professionally by a gentleman named Andrew and Proactive Events. They are the sole distributor for the magicJack reseller program. I understand that have a few hundred worldwide but only a few dozen who do this professionally and are selling in excess of few thousand each. I asked about exclusive and got a big N-O. Contact andy@andymedia.com to start the ball.
