Connect2Field invests $500,000 in partner marketing funds

Application software vendor, Connect2Field, has recently introduced its partner program and a $500,000 marketing and integration fund, specially designed for small service businesses.

The cloud-based software enables task allocation to corporation personnel and dispatching job requirements to their hand-held devices. It is available across many types of devices including iPhone, iPad, Windows Mobile or Nokia.

Under the program, partners earn a commission of 20 per cent, alongside further benefits in onsite training and software implementation.

Currently, the program is not tiered, but it will be adjusted within the next six to 12 months, Connect2Field CEO, Steve Orenstein, said.

Connect2Field aims to attract about 50 to 100 partners globally in the next six months. Orenstein said it has 10 partners on its books.

The $500,000 marketing and integration fund was initiated to aid its partners in marketing opportunities and connecting them to third party applications globally.

Software trainers, resellers and third party API developers are eligible to apply for the fund. It will be applied on an individual project basis and the allocation will be determined and evaluated independently.

Connect2Field software prices start from $65 per month.

In August last year, Connect2Field launched a mobile business application via Google.
