Charities & Telecoms in Partnership
The Charity Affiliate Program itself is very simple and can be tailored to your charities individual needs to ensure that, with very little effort, the program is successful.
The scheme requires absolutely no financial outlay from your charity – it is based purely on revenue generated through our telecoms network on incoming calls, alongside additional donations from Core Telecom.
In simple terms, by using an allocated 08 number your charity would earn money for every call received.
Core Telecom Proposal to your charity
Summary:
- Provision of ‘platinum number’ e.g. 087 20 30 40 50 free of charge.
- Provision of 08 numbers to affiliate companies, free of charge.
- Provision of associated services, free of charge.
- Sponsorship opportunities for affiliate companies.
- Statistical report access, free of charge.
- A guaranteed annual donation from Core Telecom of an additional percentage of the revenue already earned.
1) Core will provide your charity with a platinum number free of charge (market value of £10k). Core would not have expectations that this would replace the high profile numbers that your charity already uses, on the contrary, it would be used in conjunction with your current arrangements. your charity will be paid 5p per minute on all incoming calls. Core Telecom are happy to advise as to how this number could be used by your charity to generate the highest possible revenue.
In addition to the aforementioned 087 number, Core will provide your charity, free unlimited access to our full range of 08 numbers.
The revenue possibilities of each number will be supplied on request by your charity.
2) Core will provide revenue generating 08 numbers to companies of your choice, free of charge. The company in question will have the option of either 0844, 0871 or 0872 numbers (or a combination). Revenue generated on each number is as follows:
0844:
Incoming calls to 0844 will generate 2.5p per minute. Companies can choose to donate the full 2.5p to your charity or alternatively they can split the revenue between themselves and your charity (e.g. 1p per minute can be kept by the company and the remaining 1.5p per minute would go directly to your charity).
0871 / 0872:
Incoming calls to 0871 and 0872 will generate 5p per minute. As mentioned above, this can be split as required between the company and your charity
3) To compliment the 08 numbers, Core will also provide the associated support services to your charity and the companies involved in the scheme, free of charge. These include:
- Call Attendant IVR service
- Fax to email
- Voicemail
- Disaster Recovery
4) We are currently running a new sponsorship initiative with a small number of charities, although in its infancy, we believe that it could also be of benefit your charity. This is something that we would like to discuss with you in the near future.
5) Core will provide your charity full and free access to statistical reporting software relating to all the numbers that have been allocated to you and the companies involved in the programme. These report pages can be accessed by your charity via a secure online website.
your charity will be able to track the incoming volumes of calls to their allocated numbers, so therefore will be able to monitor the level of revenue being generated at any time. An invaluable tool for accounting purposes, and monitoring the trends of incoming calls.
