|
At Flashmaps, caring about web builders is our main concern. We know that listening to you and understanding your needs, making your life easier (and more profitable) is our key to success.
In fact, you'll see that nearly all topics in this Stay Tuned issue do go in one way: protecting and helping you web builders.
Your point of view is important for us. |
|
Please write us to buildercare@flashmaps.com whenever you want to share your thoughts, complaints, suggestions or feel we can help you in any way. Your Success is Our Success!
Remember that all of our technologies are built from scratch, not based on any third party mapping or GIS technology. So we're able to do nearly everything that comes to your mind. Don't hesitate to share with us the "perfect mapping" features in your mind. Many of you have already, and are using them now! |

02. The new Flashmaps: for web builders only |
|
Many of you told us you don't want your clients to know the low cost and easy of creating a map. We've made some changes to make you feel more safe about this.
Now we are making pricing and purchasing available only to verified web builders. We visit your web site and grant access only if we can confirm him/her to be a web builder. We do not grant access to final clients. |
|
Although this new procedure may be a bit annoying (you haven't instant access to pricing and purchasing), we do our best to confirm you as a qualified web builder ASAP! (12 minutes average), and it's all for your benefit. |

03. Replace Flashmaps logo with yours |
|
Another concern from many web builders was to prevent your clients from getting to know how you created these amazing maps. Several web builders are making a substantial investment on our products, and also incorporating the maps into their standard products and services. This is our way of helping you maintain your clients on a long term basis. |
|
|
|
|
Now you can build your own toolbars, replacing our logo with yours. Of course, as we loose a lot of exposure (building our brand is a big issue for us), we have to charge more per map. You can always decide if 'branded' or an 'unbranded' map is best for you and your clients. |
