Results with Cbeyond

Alan Rubenstein became a Cbeyond customer to upgrade his Internet service. Pleased with his experience at Cbeyond, Rubenstein began to recommend Cbeyond to clients - and then he had an idea. He convinced the members of his Hebrew Order of David chapter, a social and community service group, to enroll in Cbeyond's Association Partner program as way to achieve the group's fundraising goals:
- Raise funds to donate to non-profit organizations. As a non-profit group, the Hebrew Order of David relies on fundraising to support its work.
- Help area businesses cut their telephone costs. Rubenstein was pleased to recommend Cbeyond to other businesses and organizations who could benefit by upgrading to its service.
"The companies we have referred are very happy. They have gained, any way you look at it - saving money, getting better Internet service and helping their community."

The Cbeyond Solution
The Hebrew Order of David chapter signed up with Cbeyond's Association Partner program, which rewards the group for every new customer it refers.
- As an Association Partner, the HOD chapter doesn't have to sell Cbeyond service. The group simply provides Cbeyond with the names of prospects. Cbeyond invites those companies to evaluate its products and services.
Results and Benefits
As an Association Partner, Alan Rubenstein's Hebrew Order of David chapter earns thousands of dollars in rewards. They used the money to purchase a new van for Jewish Family and Career Services - a van that helps the community's seniors and adults with disabilities get to work, doctor's appointments, and other critical destinations.
- Ongoing referrals bring a steady stream of funds to the HOD chapter. "The companies we have referred save a lot of money and get a better product, and in turn, Jewish Family and Career Services has the new van it needed."
- Rubenstein's referrals see dramatic decreases in the cost of their telephone service. "We talked with one organization that was closely watching its money," says Rubenstein. "We recommended Cbeyond which gave them their local, long distance and better Internet access, and their bill is now $650 a month" - $500 less than with their previous provider.
