Hi,
I work for a company that sells a digital mileage capture system to organisations with car fleets (company, pool and grey fleet). The system is HMRC compliant, cost neutral and streamlines the complete (from driver to admin) manual process of keeping mileage documentation. We have a software only solution or software and hardware solution. At the recent AccountEx 2017 show we generated lots of interest.
Anyway, enough of the pitch. We are selling to companies with car fleets of 5-300+ but would like to increase frequency. This technology is quite new, niche and lacks general awareness but once in front of clients, the benefits are quickly realised. Therefore, we are looking for quality leads and one way we want to do this is by 'partnering' with Accountants . Their leads would allow us an opportunity to demonstrate our system and leave a quote for which we will pay the accountant a lead referral fee. My questions:
1. Are there any ethical issues with our plan?
2. Besides word of mouth/networking, is there a place where I can find potential accountants? (I.E. A service, forum etc.)
3. Is anyone interested in knowing more? (ABC)
