    /02How it works

    Four steps. You only do the first one.

    From introduction to payout — here's the whole flow, and the only part you touch is the intro.

    01

    Make the intro

    Email us together, send us their details, or point them our way. Pick whichever is easiest — there's no form to fill out and nothing to sell.

    Your only step
    02

    We lock your credit

    Within 10 business days we confirm in writing that the referral is registered to you. First-touch wins, and your credit never expires — you're paid for as long as they're a client.

    03

    We qualify, scope & close

    We respond to the prospect within 24 hours, figure out the right fit, and close. You never have to sell, scope, or manage the deal.

    04

    You get paid

    A flat 15% of the client's revenue, paid monthly as we collect — for as long as they stay with us, not just year one. We keep you posted at every stage.

    /03What you earn

    Fifteen percent. For life.

    One flat rate on everything your client ever pays us — paid monthly, as we collect, for as long as they stay. Plus a path even if you can't take cash.

    15%

    Flat, on everything

    Fifteen percent of all eligible revenue from your client — Authority Engine, Badge Labs builds, AI Sprints, Tech Audits. No tiers, no fine print.

    For life

    Not just year one

    You keep earning for as long as they're a client — every renewal, every follow-on project — with no cutoff and no expiry on your credit.

    Custom

    Renegotiable when it counts

    Fifteen is our standard, and it's simple on purpose. For a strategic client or a bigger relationship, tell us — we'll talk terms that fit the deal.

    Worked example

    You refer a client who signs a $28,000 build → $4,200 to you, up front. Then they keep us on at $6,000/mo$900 to you every month, for as long as they stay.

    For investors & accelerators

    Non-cash value exchange

    Can't accept a commission? Take value of roughly equivalent worth instead — reciprocal referrals, free or discounted services, co-marketing, or public promotion. Agreed in writing, up front.

    For agencies & studios

    White-label & co-delivery

    Resell our work under your own brand at 15–20% off standard pricing. Mark it up however you like; we deliver behind the scenes, co-branded or invisible — your choice.

    /04Earning potential

    One referral. Years of income.

    Pick a build and support level to see what a single successful referral pays you — up front, every month, and over its lifetime as a client. These are our real Badge Labs prices, at your 15%.

    From one referral. And every follow-on project they sign pays you 15% again.

    Why “for life” is real

    We only build bets that last.

    A lifetime payout only pays if the company survives — so we're deliberate about the bets we make. Every build starts with an idea-validation report, and we take on operators and projects we believe can sustain for years, not just launch. We'd rather turn a build down than put your name on something that won't last.

    Even more upside

    Negotiate for a piece of the equity.

    When Badge takes an equity stake in a company we build, partners can share in it — by coming on as an advisor under a FAST agreement, subject to terms. Bring us an operator we back and you're not just earning commission for life; you can hold a stake in what we build together.

    /05Who to introduce · our #1 ask

    Operator-founders who want to build.

    The single most valuable intro you can make is an operator-founder — someone with the domain expertise and drive to own a business, who needs a technical team to build the product. If they have an idea, we build it. If they don't, we hand them a vetted one. If they already run a company, we build the product and growth engine that makes it take off. You bring the person; we build the company and stay in it with them.

    They have an idea

    We make it real

    Bring us someone with a concept and the drive to own it. We pressure-test the idea, then design and build the whole company around it — product, brand, and pipeline — and stay in it with them.

    They don't have one yet

    We hand them one

    No idea? That's fine. We give them a vetted, de-risked opportunity from our own origination bank — a real business worth building, ready to go — then build it with them.

    They already run something

    We help it take off

    Already have a company? We build the product, automation, and authority engine that turns it into a category leader — the growth layer most operators can't build alone.

    When to think of us
    • “I'm done working for someone else.”
    • “I want to own something — I just don't know what.”
    • “I've got an idea but no clue how to build it.”
    • “I've always wanted to start a company.”
    • “We're running the whole business on spreadsheets.”
    • “I need a real product, not another prototype.”
    /06Who partners with us

    If your clients ask “who actually does this?” — that's us.

    The best partners serve the same founders we do, but don't compete on what we deliver.

    Fractional CMOs

    You diagnose authority and pipeline gaps daily — but you advise, you don't build. Hand off execution you can stand behind.

    Dev & design agencies

    You ship the product, then the client asks “how do we get traffic?” That's not your lane — it's ours.

    Coaches & consultants

    You set the strategy. When a client asks “okay, but who actually does this?” — give them a name that makes you look good.

    SaaS vendors & platforms

    Your customers own the tool but need the strategy and execution to win with it. We make your product look great.

    Investors & accelerators

    Your portfolio needs to build and get seen. Can't take a commission? Take non-cash value of equivalent worth instead.

    Operators with a network

    You know founders with budget and a problem. One warm intro is all it takes to start earning.

    /07Why partners trust us with their name
    Your reputation is on the line every time you make an introduction. We treat it like ours.

    We move fast

    Every referral gets a response within 24 hours, and you get a status at each stage — intro, conversation, proposal, won or lost. You're never left wondering.

    24-hour response

    We protect your contacts

    Client confidentiality is our highest priority. We never share a prospect's identity or details, and we treat the people you send us the way you would.

    Confidential, always

    We ship verifiable work

    Every claim is traced to a primary source, deploys are health-gated, and engines are golden-tested to the dollar. Speed without proof is noise.

    Golden-tested to the dollar
