Hey everyone!
Firstly, thank you to everyone for your support over the first week since our launch. It’s been amazing to talk to so many of you. A few key updates from our side, relating to the biggest requests since our launch.
Update 1: custom branded (and super sexy) NFC cards!
Many of you asked for discounts on cards so we delivered. Here is 25% off custom tap-to-share NFC business cards - exclusively for AppSumo users. We rarely discount these so this won’t last long and is special for sure.
Purchase here: https://swftconnect.com/products/
Use code SUMO25 at checkout. We ship worldwide.
Update 2: Sub-brands within a parent company.
I can confirm - the most requested feature, sub-brands is coming. The first version will be released within the next month. We’ve just started development so bear with us if it takes longer - but it is 100% happening!
How it will work:
Within your current ‘parent’ company dashboard, you’ll be able to create and manage sub-brands.
Each sub-brand will have its own new dashboard, essentially acting as a new company.
The parent company admin will have access to all sub-brands from your dashboard. Admins within the sub-brand will only be able to see that sub-brand dashboard and not the parent company dashboard.
You will be able to put your logo on profile pages of the sub-brands.
FAQs:
Can I sell this to clients?
Yes. With the release of this feature, we’re happy for you to use your parent company as the “agency” account and create sub-brands for each client. For now, you’ll need to collect payments from them yourself.
What's the limit of users and brands?
You are limited by the number of users across your entire account, not by the number of brands. You can create unlimited brands. For example, you could have 20 brands with 5 users each, which would make up the 100 users for Tier 3. Or 4 companies with 25 users each.
Will this be a new tier?
Nope. We probably should make this a higher tier offering as it's a significant change from our core offering, but we’re opening it for Tier 2 and Tier 3. However, the price of Tier 3 will very likely go up - so I would get it while you can. The lifetime deal will remain capped at 100 users. If you need more, please reach out to me directly and we’ll discuss fair terms (pawan@swftconnect.com).
Can you add a custom domain for each sub-brand?
Yes. 1 per sub-brand.
Will this be completely white-label?
The profile pages will have your logo on them, so visitors will see your brand front and centre. This was the main thing requested - so we will deliver this!
Many of you have asked for fully white labels - sign up pages, backend dashboard, email systems and knowledge bases. As this platform was built to serve businesses directly, the amount of development involved is not something we’ll be able to achieve within this campaign. However, this isn’t a no. It is something we will build, it’s just a timing issue.
If you purchase Tier 2 or 3 now, you will get access to white-label when it’s ready. I can’t provide timelines just yet.
What are the next steps?
If you are happy with the multi-brand setup and will start selling to your clients when it’s ready, please fill in this form. Make sure you have your AppSumo plan purchased too: https://swftconnect.fillout.com/t/nt8kS9thW2us
If the multi-brand setup is not sufficient and you’d prefer to only start when full white-label is ready, please fill in this form: https://swftconnect.fillout.com/t/7L1zNLAjbvus
We feel the introduction of sub-brands is the perfect entry point for agencies to start offering this to clients, and hope it helps get the ball rolling for you too. We’ve paused development on other features for existing clients just to have this ready especially for Sumo-lings as fast as possible.
Sorry for the long post but felt like it was all necessary! I hope that provides clarity on where we’re headed, and we’d absolutely LOVE for you to be part of that journey.
