You already know them

Qualifying companies are not rare. If your work has touched established businesses — as a consultant, advisor, agency, investor or employee — you already know companies that fit.

The recognition checklist

  • 50+ full-time employees at peak headcount.
  • Several years in operation.
  • Structured systems: helpdesk, CRM, document stores, communication platforms.
  • Knowledge-work heavy operations.

Tools that help

  • The fit checker tests a company against the criteria in two minutes.
  • The network finder helps surface qualifying companies in your own contacts.
  • The email builder drafts the introduction.

The first step

Pick one company you know well and make the introduction. If a deal closes and SourceX collects its fee, you earn 25% of that fee, up to $100,000 per company.
