Why this exists
Your clients ask for more than you sell
Every agency has a line: the services it delivers brilliantly and the ones it would rather not touch. When a client asks for a new website, better rankings, or help with ads, saying no costs you goodwill and saying yes can cost you margin.
This program is the third option. You introduce the client to cantandoDigital, we deliver the work under our name, and you earn a 15% referral fee on their first-year spend. Your client gets served, your relationship stays intact, and the introduction pays for itself.
The partnership
How the referral program works
Simple terms, real money, and no games with your client relationships.
A 15% referral fee
You earn a 15% referral fee, calculated as 15% of the referred client's first-year spend with us. One introduction, real compensation, no cap on how many clients you refer.
Your client, treated well
A referral is your reputation on the line. We respond fast, scope honestly, and do the work the way we would for a client who found us directly.
You stay informed
You hear from us when the client signs, and we keep you posted on progress. No black box, no chasing us for an update on your own introduction.
No territory games
We do not compete with your agency's core services or market ourselves around you. The relationship between you and your client stays yours.
Full service coverage
Websites, SEO, Google Ads, Google Business Profile work, review automation, and AI automation. If your clients ask for digital work you do not offer, we cover it.
Straight answers both ways
If a referral is not a fit, we say so quickly and tell you why. You will never look bad for making the introduction.
The honest part
A referral only works if your client is looked after
You are putting your name behind an introduction. If we do a poor job, that reflects on you, and no referral fee is worth that. So the standard is simple: referred clients get our best work, honest scoping, and fast communication, exactly as if they had found us on their own.
And if a referral is not a fit for what we do, we will tell you quickly and explain why, rather than taking on work that would end badly for everyone.
The process
From introduction to referral fee
02
We scope the work
We talk to the client, figure out what they actually need, and put together an honest proposal. You are credited as the referral source from day one.
03
The work gets done
We deliver the project or ongoing service and keep you updated at the milestones that matter. Your client gets our full attention.
04
You get paid
Your 15% referral fee, based on the client's first-year spend, is paid as their payments come in. No paperwork marathon, no chasing invoices.
What to refer
The work we take on for your clients
Referrals fit best when the client needs a website that converts, SEO, Google Ads management, Google Business Profile work, review automation, lead generation, or AI and automation.
Most of our clients are service businesses, contractors, restaurants, and professional firms. If that describes the people your agency serves, there is a good chance we can take the work you do not want off your plate.
FAQ
Common referral questions
How does the 15% referral fee work?
When a client you refer signs with us, you receive a 15% referral fee based on 15% of that client's first-year spend with cantandoDigital. It applies across services: websites, SEO, Google Ads, review automation, and AI automation.
Who handles the client relationship?
We do, end to end: the proposal, the work, the communication, and the results. You make the introduction and stay as involved or as hands-off as you want. The client hears from us, and we keep you informed.
What kinds of clients are a good fit to refer?
Service businesses, contractors, restaurants, and professional firms that need a website that converts, more leads, more Google reviews, or less repetitive manual work. If your clients ask for services outside your core offering, that is exactly what this program covers.
What if the referred client needs something you don't do?
We will tell you and them. We do not take on work we cannot deliver well, and we would rather send a bad-fit referral back with a straight answer than damage your relationship with your client.
Will you sell other services to my client?
We serve the referred client's needs. If they ask us directly about additional services, we answer honestly and keep you in the loop. We do not poach accounts or go around the agency that made the introduction.
How do I make a referral?
Send us the client's name and the best way to reach them through the form on this page, by email, or by phone. We take it from there, mention that you sent them, and confirm the referral with you once they become a client.
