Frogfoot Wifi, Everyone can earn money
Frogfoot, are not just happy settling for a cool name and a funky logo, they now offer just about anyone to own a WIFI hotspot and bill customers while at the same time offering agents who refer wifi operators a chance to earn commission. Everyone gets a slice of the pie. Technically, frogfoot is not a startup since they have been in business since 2000 but since this is a unique business model, it warrants coverage.
The hotspot agent refers customers and receives 20% commission on profit for the first year while the operator receives 70% commission. This is a unique proposition and i like the idea and it remains to be seen if it is sustainable for everyone involved. They could also get the Hotspot user in on the sharing with a few tweaks, which should drive usage:
- Free megabytes sponsored by companies for the users, in return customers could complete a quick survey
- A loyalty scheme for high traffic users or tie up with other companies to offer discounts on products and services
