So what does a Group do?

Groups earn funds by recruiting local businesses to purchase Coupon Spaces on Here Is My Coupon (HIMC). Each Group has at least one registered Sales Representative who recruits local businesses to purchase Coupon Spaces. For every Coupon Space sold, HIMC pays that Sales Rep$30 in commission and pays the Group that they represent $45.
Sounds great, right? It doesn’t stop there.Sales Reps earn an additional $10 per year when a Merchant who they recruited renews their Coupon Space and re-credits said Sales Rep. Plus, the Sales Rep’s Group earns an additional $45. That means annual income for all of you!

Convinced yet? Let’s say that you’re part of a Group with one Sales Rep working for you. In one year, you could make:

Merchants Recruited	Sales Rep Makes	Group Earns
10 Merchants	$300	$450
25 Merchants	$750	$1,125
50 Merchants	$1,500	$2,250
100 Merchants	$3,000	$4,500
150 Merchants	$4,500	$6,750
200 Merchants	$6,000	$9,000
250 Merchants	$7,500	$11,250

You’re right, it does sound great. But why should my Group participate?
HIMC is a fundraising platform like no other. Sure, you might be earning decent funds from your bake sales, dance-a- thons, and fun runs, but HIMC gives you the opportunity to get more involved in your community and support the small, local businesses that you frequent while earning annual income at the same time.
In addition to raising money , the people who are involved in your fundraising will gain business and communication skills that can serve as > valuable resume boosters.
So how many Groups can participate in HIMC?
Each community can have an unlimited number of Groups to match the countless merchants near you who are excited to use a platform like HIMC!
Alright, count me in! Are there any requirements for forming a Group?
Group members have to be of legal age (18+) to represent and be eligible to partner with HIMC. Groups must also abide by our Code of Conduct while fundraising through HIMC.
I’m ready to launch my Group! What do I do next?

1. Identify your Group’s 2 executives and your treasurer. These 3 members will work together to decide where the money that you raise will go in order to meet your fundraising needs.
2. Identify your Sales Representatives. Groups must register at least one Sales Representative (preferably 3 or more). Sales Reps can also serve as one of their Group’s executives or as the treasurer (but only for one Group).
3. Choose a representative from your Group to follow these signup steps:
   
   1. Visit our website: HereIsMyCoupon.com.
   2. Click on the “Sign Up” tab and click on “Groups.”
   3. Follow the online registration process and complete all mandatory fields.
   4. Make sure to include your Group’s registered mission statement!

Once you’ve signed up, we’ll send emails to your Group’s executives to officially confirm your signup. Once your executives have activated their Group account, your Group will be active! Hurray! Now you can start fundraising with your own Sales Reps or with Sales Reps who have previously signed up (in that case, we’ll send ‘em your way).
So how will we get paid?
Secure payments to Groups will be processed through Braintree or through direct bank transfers. The transaction can take up to 45 business days.
What if no one in my Group wants to be a Sales Rep?
If that’s the case, then we may be able to provide you with a Sales Rep in the area who has previously registered. However, we highly recommend that your Group has its own Sales Reps. There’s more potential for higher income, more credibility with merchants, and more opportunities to support local businesses in greater numbers.

What exactly does a Here Is My Coupon (HIMC) Sales Representative do?

Sales Representatives recruit Coupon Spaces to HIMC by approaching local businesses and sharing the benefits of using HIMC: increased traffic and revenue from creating and posting coupon deals online. Sales Reps earn $30 in commission when the merchant who they’ve recruited to HIMC signs up, credits them, and purchases a Coupon Space.

In addition to earning $30 in commission, Sales Reps can also fundraise for local community and college student Groups. A Sales Rep can represent a local Group regardless of whether or not they’re a member of said Group. Sales Reps who fundraise for a Group earn that Group $45 when the merchant who they’ve recruited to HIMC signs up, credits the Sales Rep and the Group, and purchases a Coupon Space.

Sounds great, right? Actually, you can make even more! Sales Reps earn an additional $10 per year when a Merchant who they recruited renews their Coupon Space and re-credits said Sales Rep, and the Sales Rep’s Group earns an additional $45. That means extra money for all of you!

Convinced yet? Let’s say that you’re part of a Group where you’re the only Sales Rep. In one year, you could make:

Merchants Recruited	Sales Rep Makes	Group Earns
10 Merchants	$300	$450
25 Merchants	$750	$1,125
50 Merchants	$1,500	$2,250
100 Merchants	$3,000	$4,500
150 Merchants	$4,500	$6,750
200 Merchants	$6,000	$9,000
250 Merchants	$7,500	$11,250

You’re right, it does sound great. Why should I become a Sales Rep, though? Make money based on drive and skill! As a HIMC Sales Rep, we don’t just give you the opportunity to make money based on your efforts and your drive to succeed, but we also give you a chance to learn and develop valuable sales, business, and interpersonal skills that you can apply to the business world.

Learn how to sell! First, you’ll learn how to pitch our services and set up sales appointments over the phone. Next, you’ll learn how to conduct a professional sales meeting as you meet in person with a business owner/manager, discuss our services, and finally, sell to them.

Learn how to develop business relationships! The Sales Reps who build relationships with the merchants who they sell to naturally benefit, as the merchants who renew their Coupon Space(s) for an additional year are more likely to once again credit the Sales Rep who originally recruited them. Thus, our sales cycle encourages our Sales Reps to reach out to merchants who they’ve met with before, ensuring that said merchants are happy with our services and want to renew for an additional year. This communication enables our Sales Reps to build or improve their interpersonal skills.

Learn how to network and market our services! The Sales Reps who choose to network and market our services prove to be more successful than those who don’t, as they generate the most leads and sell the most. Learn how to fundraise! Sales Reps who choose to fundraise for a Group build the skills required to discuss the purpose of a fundraiser and to ask for money. Earn a spot on our core team! The Sales Reps who prove to be the most hardworking, dedicated, and driven are frequently offered the opportunity to work for HIMC on a larger scale with our core team of executives.

Do I have to partner with a Group in order to work as a Sales Rep?

It’s not a requirement, but we highly recommend that you work with a Group. There’s more potential for higher income, more credibility, more Sales Reps to partner with, and more opportunities to support local merchants in greater numbers.

What’s the time commitment for Sales Reps?

You’re not required to commit a minimum or maximum amount of time to recruiting merchants to HIMC. We designed the incentive of $30 per merchant who signs up, credits you, and purchases a Coupon Space to motivate you in your sales efforts.

Scheduling a sales appointment with a merchant takes about 2-3 minutes. Sales visits take about 6-10 minutes. Thus, about 15 minutes of “selling” our services (with a phone call and an in-person visit) could earn you $30.

As a reminder, sales is always a numbers game: the more sales calls and visits that you do, the more money that you can make. Additionally, the more that you practice, the better that you’ll become at selling HIMC!

How do I get paid?

When you sign up as a Sales Rep, we’ll ask you to provide us with your bank account information or PayPal account information so that we can automatically transfer the money that you’ve earned directly to you.

Is there a limit to how much I can make?

Have we got good news for you! Sales Reps can recruit an unlimited amount of businesses to our website. Therefore, Sales Reps can earn their Group an unlimited amount of funds.

What territory can I cover?

You can approach merchants anywhere in the country (and even abroad)! We encourage Sales Reps who are fundraising for a Group in addition to earning commission for themselves to approach merchants in nearby communities.

We encourage Sales Reps who are working individually to approach merchants wherever it’s most convenient for them. For example, during the academic school year, student Sales Reps would approach merchants near their campus. If student Sales Reps are living at home or in a different part of the country during the summer, then we encourage them to approach merchants where they’re currently living. They can represent a group in their hometown or even abroad.

What’s a Referral Source?

A referral source is any registered individual who refers Groups to sign up with HIMC.

What’s in it for me or my Group?

Once the Group that you’ve referred to HIMC has recruited 25 paid Coupon Spaces to our site, you’ll earn $100 and your group will receive $100. If you’re not part of a Group, then you’ll earn $100 and a group that you select will also receive $100. You can refer as many Groups as you want to HIMC, so the possibility to make extra money is limitless!

In addition, if you refer 10 Groups to HIMC and each Group recruits 25 paid Coupon Spaces to HIMC, then you’ll earn a $1,000 bonus! If you’re part of a Group, then you’ll earn $500 each! We like to say that HIMC also stands for “Hey, I Made Cha-Ching.”

Convinced yet? Let’s say that you’re part of a Group. In one year, you could make:

Groups Referred	You Earn	Your Group Earns
5 Groups	$500	$500
10 Groups	$1500	$1500

Don’t forget to remind them that they MUST credit you as their referral source when registering their Group. If they don’t credit you, then you (and your Group) won’t receive payment.

How many Groups can I refer?

There’s no limit! However, you can only refer up to 100 Groups that are affiliated with the same organization of which you or your Group belongs. For example, a national organization can only refer up to 100 chapters from the same organization, or a sorority or a sorority member can only refer up to 100 chapters from the same sorority.

What qualifications does my Group need to have to be eligible for referral?

You can refer a Group from anywhere around the world to HIMC, although you can’t earn money by referring your own Group to HIMC. Each referred Group must meet the criteria outlined on the Group FAQ page.

How do I get paid?

Once the Group that you’ve referred recruits 25 paid Coupon Spaces to HIMC, we’ll send you and your Group $100 each. You’ll receive this payment through Braintree or via bank deposit an estimated 35 days after the referred Group has recruited their 25th paid Coupon Space to HIMC. The same process will occur if you refer 10 Groups to HIMC.
