CONDITIONS OF USE

General terms and conditions preamble

The Future Key Group GmbH has the function of a marketplace and the task of bringing customers and producers or services together. The primary mediation medium is sales, here called network partners.

In the network partner, customers have a direct contact and advisor for the products and services in the Future Key Group network. The Future Key Group acts as an intermediary here, the contractual relationship is created directly between the customer and the product partner/supplier. The Future Key Group looks for special products for the customers of the network on the market and provides the added value of the consulting service through its network partners.

Network partners are familiar with the portfolio of the Future Key Group and provide their personal customers with the products for which there is a need. The network partner can access all products and services of the Future Key Group or specialize in a brand or an industry. Due to the diversity of the product portfolio with a simultaneous specialized presentation, this business model is extremely suitable as a second income in home business.

All products in the portfolio are assigned to different brands or subject areas. Thus, the customer does not find all products in one shop, but in different shops, which all run on one system in the background. The focus remains on the topic that interests the customer. Brand providers are responsible for a subject area, the shop maintenance and the support of the network partners and product providers of this brand. He takes care of information and training material for all products in his brand. And looks after the product providers of his brand, if he is not the brand provider and product provider in one person. A particular advantage for brand givers is that you get an independent MLM system without having to rebuild it and at the same time have access to an existing sales organization. In relation to an independent sales structure, he only invests a tiny fraction in his project.

The product provider / supplier can be a manufacturer or service provider who would like to seize the opportunity to have their products or services sold through a distributor. The product provider is listed in the respective brand and can have all of their products entered there. In addition to the one-off listing fee for the product provider and its products and an annual membership, the product provider only pays a jointly negotiated success fee to the network in the event of success, i.e. if its products have been brokered. He also benefits from the entire network and receives optimal support for the marketing of his products. Product providers and brand providers receive special discounts on the production of digital products, advertising films and training films. The product provider is the direct contact person for the mediated customer. The contractual relationship is established directly between the product provider and the customer.
