I think the key takeaway is that they're going to make that call anyways. You might as well get *something* out of the deal besides a nightmarish opinion of the caller.

We opted not to do anything with the free wireless we give out beyond shutting it off if they have problems. Too many customers who want the equipment installed in their basement and coverage to their detached garage, inside their refrigerator, up in the attic, through 7 walls and a TV.... no thank you On Wed, Jun 1, 2016 at 2:26 PM, Sean Heskett <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: we charge a $99 "setup fee" for our "managed wifi service" which costs $12/mo. the router remains our property and we replace it if need be. At that price i expected the take rate to be lower than what it is (we priced it high so that we could run specials ;-) but we've been very pleased with the take rate.

What pricing models are others using for the R200/R201/844E managed home routers? Do you sell the customer the router, lease it, just give it, charge for management, sell it without management, etc? [During a promotional time, I have been using the R200 and sell it to new customers for $50 (at a loss to help adoption). Then, I don't charge for remote management. I've been pretty pleased, but I'm debating whether to sell the router (since it requires convincing the customer) or just including it. Also, I want to start charging for management, but I'm not sure what a reasonable rate is. I recognize it will vary by area, but I'm looking for some ballpark numbers.] Thank you, Chris -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
