How to refresh a buyer program comparison when terms change

Buyer program requirements and terms can evolve as AI buyer needs shift, technologies advance, or market conditions change. As a SourceX referral partner, your primary role is to introduce eligible companies. SourceX handles the ongoing management of buyer programs, including any term adjustments.

SourceX manages program updates

SourceX is responsible for maintaining current information on all buyer programs. When terms change, our internal teams update the relevant criteria and matching algorithms. This ensures that any referred company is evaluated against the most current requirements. You do not need to manually track or compare specific buyer program term changes yourself.

Your focus: Qualified introductions

Instead of refreshing detailed buyer program comparisons, focus on understanding the general eligibility criteria for companies with valuable proprietary operational data. SourceX's tools and processes are designed to take your referral and match it to the most suitable current buyer program.

A useful initial screening profile includes:

Operating maturity: Often 20+ full-time employees and several years in operation, though specific programs vary. Original documentation: Proprietary SOPs, internal knowledge bases, project histories, etc. Rights to license: The company must own the material or have the right to license it. An authorized sponsor: A decision-maker who can approve the discussion.

For a preliminary assessment, use the company fit checker. This tool reflects current, high-level suitability indicators, which are updated by SourceX internally.

How SourceX handles changes for existing referrals

If you have an active referral in process and buyer program terms change, SourceX's evaluation team will automatically apply the updated criteria. Your referral's eligibility is continuously assessed against the most relevant program requirements. In some cases, a company not fitting one program may become suitable for another due to term adjustments.

Staying informed

While you don't need to perform direct program comparisons, staying aware of general trends in AI buyer demand can be beneficial. SourceX communicates updates that impact the referral program or broad eligibility criteria through partner dashboards or direct communications. Review your dashboard regularly to see the status of your referrals and any program announcements.

What does not trigger a reward

It is important to remember that a reward is tied to a completed licensing deal, not merely an introduction or a discussion. Changes in buyer program terms do not alter the reward trigger conditions. Your reward becomes eligible only after the company completes a qualifying licensing deal, data is accepted, and buyer payment is received by SourceX.
