What we promise
Referring us should never cost you a client. We work closely with a small number of partners.
We stay in our lane
We never sell your service to a client you introduce, and we never go around you.
They stay your client
If you'd rather lead, we work under your name and you keep the relationship.
We send work back
When one of our clients needs what you do, you're the first we tell them about.
You'll always know
We tell you what happens with every introduction you send us, whichever way it goes.

FAQ
What partners ask before they refer.
Who can refer a client?
Anyone who knows a business that needs the work we do. Accountants, fractional CFOs, agencies and consultants are often closest to the problem.
When do I get paid?
Within 30 days of each payment the client makes in their first year. After the first year, you get 5% of their retainer every month they stay.
What if you were already talking to them?
Then it doesn't count as your introduction. If we've spoken with them in the last six months, we'll tell you as soon as you email us.
How long does an introduction stay mine?
Twelve months. If they start working with us within a year of your introduction, the fee is yours.
What if two people introduce the same business?
The first introduction we receive counts, and we tell the other person straight away.
My professional rules don't let me take a fee.
We can pay it to your firm, give it to a charity you choose, or take it off your client's bill. Whichever you pick, we tell your client about it in writing.
