The Partner Fleet Referral Program

Effective: September 8, 2023

As you likely already know, Partner Fleet has been dedicated to providing innovative and reliable marketplace software solutions that drive success for businesses looking to implement an ecosystem business model. In the past two years, we’ve helped partner teams, marketers, product managers, customer success teams, and leadership teams drive more value from their integrations and partnerships. 

Now we're inviting you to be a part of this story! We’ve launched our referral program, and you’re one of the first in the door.

If you’re already referring people to Partner Fleet, this is now an opportunity to share in the revenue generated by the deals that come out of them.

But this is not just an opportunity to earn. It’s a chance to provide value to your network by connecting them with our proven and effective ecosystem marketplace tool. 

As a part of this program, we’ll give you sales resources and keep you up to date on all new feature releases.

How it works:

Opt-in: Let us know you’re game! And sign our referral agreement.

Refer: Recommend our services to businesses that could benefit from Partner Fleet. It could be anyone in your network – customers, clients, partners, followers, or even friends. If you tell your audience about Partner Fleet, remind them to mention your name when they sign up for a demo or free trial.

We will help you identify good companies to refer, too. We can screen your audience, connections, and current partners for ideal opportunities. Then, just give us a warm intro via email and we’ll do the rest.

Earn: For each successful referral – i.e., a business that becomes our customer based on your referral – you will receive 10% of their platform subscription fee for the first year.

Repeat: There's no limit to the number of businesses you can refer, meaning your earning potential is limitless.

Naturally, we believe in the power of partnerships and the immense value they can bring. We're thrilled about the prospect of working with you and eager to see the growth that our combined efforts can deliver.

FAQ:

Who qualifies for the program?

Anyone who believes in the power of the ecosystem business model and how Partner Fleet can help.

Anyone who interacts with partnerships professionals, product teams, CMOs, CROs, and/or marketing teams regularly.

If you’ve used Partner Fleet in any way, that’s even better.

At this date, we aren’t offering affiliate links, so this program is not ideal for affiliate content.

Businesses might be a good fit if any of the following pertains to them:

  • Are looking to create or update their partner marketplace or directory
  • Have a partnership program of any size
  • Plan to build a partnership program

Who do we incentivize – you or your company?

The Partner Fleet referral program incentivizes the individual, not the business.

By default, agreements will be with the individual.

If there is a conflict with your employment, please reach out. We’re happy to make exceptions on a case-by-case basis, as long as the employee receives at least partial compensation for referrals made.

What does Platform Subscription Revenue include?

We always charge a platform fee on an annual or multi-year basis, but customers may also have a cost based on the number of partners in their marketplace, which is dynamic and nature and thus not eligible for revenue sharing. We also have service fees which are one-time fees and therefore not eligible for revenue sharing.

Why refer to Partner Fleet?

  1. You want to help people find an excellent marketplace solution for their needs.
  2. You earn a 10% commission on the first year platform subscription contract when your referrals turn into a customer (in most cases you’ll earn >$1000).

How can I send referrals?

You can refer people to Partner Fleet by giving us a warm introduction via email or LinkedIn. If you mention Partner Fleet to your audience, make sure they tell us how they heard about you.

How do we pay your commission?

We will make a payment to your checking account via wire or ACH. 

How will we track your referrals?

We’ll track your referrals in PartnerStack. You need to create a PartnerStack account and make sure the referral you send is submitted there around the time they're introduced. We run all our closed deals against the PartnerStack list monthly and will pay out if your referral closes.

Are there exceptions when a referral made won’t be eligible for a reward?

If a company has an active deal with us at the time the referral is made, they will not be eligible for reward should the deal close. We’ll let you know when you make the referral whether this is the case.

Referrals are eligible for rewards for 6 months from the referral date.

A note on taxes

If your payout exceeds $600 in any given year, we’ll need to collect a W-9 form from you so we can issue you a 1099 in December.

Are you in? Great!
