Why Partner With Us
Refer with confidence. Earn without the lift.
Vetted Excellence
We only match your clients with top-tier, proven talent. Every referral reflects back on you — so we treat it with the same care you would.
Zero Fulfillment
We handle the scoping, the close, and the execution. You stay focused on what you do best and never worry about delivery quality or project management.
True Passive Income
You make the warm intro; we send the weekly payouts. No tracking, no invoicing, no follow-ups required.
At Capacity? We've Got You
When you're fully booked and can't take on new work, refer fractional leadership engagements to us. Your clients stay in good hands, and you still earn on the introduction.
The Process
Three steps from intro to income.
Spot the Gap
You identify a client need during your normal fractional engagements — an area that falls outside your scope but screams for expert help.
Make the Warm Intro
Submit a brief form with client info and make an email introduction. It takes five minutes, and we take it from there.
Collect Your Share
Once they sign, you earn 5% of their monthly retainer for the first 12 months. We pay you as soon as we get paid — payouts go out every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Most client payment terms are net 30, but may vary.
The Math
Warm intros add up — fast.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Do I have to manage the client relationship?+
Absolutely not. Once the intro is made, our team takes over the sales process and fulfillment. You can be as involved or hands-off as you want.
When do I get paid?+
We pay you as soon as we get paid by the client. Payouts are distributed every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, excluding holidays.
What if the client churns?+
You are paid 5% on all collected revenue. If a client stays for 3 months, you get paid for 3 months. If they stay for 12, you get paid for 12.
Is my network exclusive to you?+
No. We don't demand exclusivity. We just want to be your preferred partner when the right fit arises.
What kinds of clients are the best fit for a referral?+
Any business that needs mid-to-senior marketing, creative, or operational talent. Our sweet spot is companies spending $5K–$50K+ per month on services like paid media, brand strategy, UX/UI, SEO, fractional leadership, and more. Early-stage startups to enterprise — if the need is real and the budget is there, it's a fit.
