The Partnership Programs offers the opportunity for creators, entrepreneurs, and business owners to help others build an amazing SaaS product or tool (and earn in the process).
Why a SaaS Product/Tool?
Here are just a few of the reasons your audience/clients could benefit from a custom-tailored SaaS product/tool.
- Recurring Revenue Streams: SaaS products generate sustainable income through subscriptions and premium features, unlike one-time payment models like online courses.
- Higher Engagement: Dynamic and interactive experiences keep users engaged longer than static content, leading to improved customer satisfaction and retention.
- Enhanced Problem-Solving: SaaS tools provide immediate solutions to users’ challenges, making them indispensable for anyone who uses them.
- Competitive Edge: Positions individuals as innovators in their industry, helping them stand out and attract more customers.
- Scalability: SaaS products grow alongside a business, adapting to new demands and markets with ease.
- Dual-Purpose Value: Engage audiences while simultaneously generating leads and sales, offering unmatched efficiency.
- Custom Tailored for Unique Needs: Solutions are designed to align perfectly with clients’ business goals and processes, ensuring maximum impact.
- Long-Term Business Growth: Transitioning to a SaaS model helps scale businesses over time, fostering sustainable growth.
Earning Potential
The industry standard for a “finder’s fee” or referral for most design or development services is in the neighborhood of 10% with 15% being on the higher end. Thomas, however, offers 20% commission on all referrals from partners for new clients.
Every project is custom tailored and as such, varies pretty widely based upon their size and scope. That being said, most projects fall in the range of $10k-$100k based upon their complexity.
For reference, that means you could earn anywhere in the ballpark of $2,000 to $20,000 for a single referral.
How it Works
- As a partner, you’ll receive a unique referral link to SaaS Planner.
- Each person who signs up for a free account through your link will have you added as the referrer within their account information.
- SaaS Planner signups are automatically enrolled in a simple and useful Email drip sequence that provides a number of other useful tools while at the same time upselling to Thomas’ SaaS building services.
- If at any point, either through the SaaS Planner site, or via the Email drip sequence; someone submits a request for project proposal, you as the referrer will automatically be listed alongside their submission.
- When a referral successfully converts to a new project with Thomas, you’ll be notified via Email.
Note: using a referral link isn’t a requirement to get credit for a referral. If you know someone personally or would rather refer individuals via Email or another method, each would count as a referral as long as we can confirm who the referrer of the new client is.
Payment
Every project is different, however, many have two phases on which payments toward the project are made (typically 50% of the total prior to the project starting and the remaining 50% after launch).
Upon receiving payment from a client from whom you referred, a payment will be submitted to you for 20% of the amount they paid for that phase and the same for each phase that follows up to the project’s completion.
Payments will be initiated within 7 days of the referred client’s payment completing processing.
