SourceXIllustrative case study: a repeat referral partner
A hypothetical example of a partner who makes several careful introductions over time. Not a real person or result.
The partner
A management consultant works with a dozen established clients across manufacturing and professional services.
A consent-first routine
- Mentions SourceX only when a client talks about documented processes or archives
- Asks permission before every introduction
- Discloses that they may receive a referral reward
Screening before introducing
They run each company through the company fit checker and only introduce those that look promising. Some companies are not a fit for current programs, and the consultant tells them so honestly.
Tracking outcomes
In the partner dashboard they follow each referral's stage. Some are declined, some stay on hold, and one progresses to an active partnership. Rewards are shown as estimated until fees are collected, and only as paid after a payout is recorded.
What they learned
- Fewer, better introductions beat volume
- Decision makers matter more than enthusiasm
- Every company's reward is capped at $100,000
