Protus, a provider of software as a service (SaaS (

This new program offers qualified partners the ability to earn as much as $50 for each new subscriber referred to my1voice. Such an incentive helps to drive additional revenue for my1voice, while ensuring that partners also benefit from new subscriptions.
The my1voice affiliate program operates much like the company’s program for MyFax (

If the subscriber remains active after 45 days, the affiliate earns a second payment of either $30 or $35, depending on how many active referred customers they have sent in a month. The program is available though Commission Junction and the pepperjamNETWORK.
“Partner networks are an integral part of our overall marketing strategy,” said Joseph Nour (

Alert), CEO of Protus, in a Friday statement. “They help us reach out to the many small businesses that can use a virtual PBX service such as my1voice to give their telephone system professional polish without having to install expensive, difficult-to-manage equipment.”
“Affiliates who take advantage of this program can earn additional income by promoting a feature-rich, highly reliable service. It’s a win all the way around,” added Nour.
my1voice relies on existing telephone equipment to provide communications features such as auto-attendant, multiple extensions and voicemail services to provide a professional face to callers while also allowing employees to stay in touch with the office through phone, e-mail or the Web.
Without additional hardware or software to install or maintain, my1voice is available at a fraction of the cost compared to a traditional PBX (

Special offers are available to affiliates and include the ability to promote a free 30-day trial of my1voice. The trial provides an excellent incentive for customers to check out and sample the service. It also helps affiliates to profit beyond the initial payment.
Those site owners interested in becoming my1voice affiliates can apply for approved status on the Commission Junction or pepperjamNETWORK websites.
Current MyFax affiliates are already approved and new approved applicants will become affiliates of both services. Once approved, they will have access to banners and other advertising vehicles that allow them to promote one or both products.
Such partner and affiliate programs are excellent tools for advancing the initiatives of the my1voice program. When a situation is created where everyone wins, the experience for all is elevated to another level and helps to build a strong and sustainable brand.
