I'm interested about Ubuntu Reseller partnership (http://www.canonical.com/partners/reseller), but I'm not getting full info for this; like

How I need to pay them (will it be case to case, annually or monthly)?
When I'll sale their Ubuntu Advantage Support, then how I'll be benefited?

When I'm clicking on the "contact" button of canonical website it takes me to "becoming a partner" page, but fact is that before apply for a partnership I need to know about this fully.



Please help anyone. Thanks in advance.

The best people to talk to are at Canonical. This website is about Ubuntu, not Canonical's business services. While I'm sure there are some people, I don't think there are many people here who could give you a particularly credible answer. It looks to me like their Become a Partner page really is just a detailed (and perhaps unfortunately named) contact form. From a quick read of that page, I don't think they're going to launch you into any kind of agreement without getting in touch first. I think they just want to talk to you in person, because they're cool that way ;)

Thanks for your reply & suggestion. I'm also trying in that way to make contact with Canonical, but I was worried because "Apply to become a partner" button of this page (http://www.canonical.com/partners/reseller) also leads to the same form. Whatever, may be they will rethink about this in future.

Let them know that their description is lacking severely in detail and that you want more information to be available. Or just have a chat with them. Before calling or filling in the form, write a list of all the questions you will ask them, and then make sure that list is with you.

Yeah!!! chatting is a great way to contact with them. Please tell me that how can I do chat with them any link of any website or anything. All I'm getting by internet searching is the community chat (http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community/chat) , I think that's not their official chatting channel. I'll be really happy, if you suggests that what I can do.

That took a few seconds ...

As Mr. Picklesworth mentioned, your inquiries should contact Canonical directly as this is a support forum for Ubuntu, the operating system and users. Good luck.
