Introducing the ReviewSimple Partner Program: Earn 20% Recurring

If you work with local businesses (SEO, marketing, web design, bookkeeping, consulting), this is for you.

We're launching the ReviewSimple Partner Program. The short version: earn 20% recurring commission on every client you refer, no caps, no limits, paid monthly.

Here's why we built it and how it works.

Why a Partner Program?

I've been building ReviewSimple for a few months now. The product works, the price is right ($19.99/month vs. competitors at $249-299), and customers who use it are happy.

But here's what I've learned about local businesses: they don't search for "review automation software."

They're running their business 60 hours a week. They're not on Twitter reading about SaaS tools or Googling solutions to problems they don't know they have.

But they do trust their advisors. When their accountant recommends something, they listen. When their marketing person suggests a tool, they try it. When their web designer says "you need this," they believe it.

So instead of fighting for attention with cold outreach and ads, I'm partnering with the people who already have it. Distribution through trust, and that's the thesis.

Who It's For

The partner program is designed for professionals who work with local businesses:

• SEO agencies who know reviews are a top ranking factor for local search and want to help clients fix it
• Marketing consultants who need a tool to recommend as part of any local marketing strategy
• Web designers who build online presence and know reviews are part of that
• Bookkeepers and accountants who see the numbers and know which clients could use more customers
• Business coaches who are already advising on growth
• POS and software providers who are already integrated into their clients' businesses

If you regularly talk to local business owners and they trust your recommendations, this program is probably for you.

How It Works

Simple structure, no complexity:

1. Apply. Takes 2 minutes. We review every application personally. Apply here.

2. Get approved. You'll receive a unique partner code and a free ReviewSimple account to use and demo to clients.

3. Refer clients. When clients sign up with your code, they get the standard 14-day trial and you're credited for the referral.

4. Get paid. Earn 20% of every payment, every month, for as long as they're a customer. Paid via PayPal or Venmo, no tiers, no minimums, no caps.

What You Earn

ReviewSimple is $19.99/month. 20% of that is roughly $4 per customer per month.

Doesn't sound like much? It adds up:

• 5 referrals: $20/month, $240/year
• 15 referrals: $60/month, $720/year
• 30 referrals: $120/month, $1,440/year

And it's recurring. Refer someone once, earn every month they stay a customer with no additional work required.

If you work with 50 local business clients and 10 of them sign up for ReviewSimple, that's $40/month in passive income. Not life-changing, but not nothing either, especially for recommending something that actually helps your clients.

What Partners Get

I'm a solo founder, so I'm keeping this simple. No fancy dashboard yet, just the essentials:

• Free ReviewSimple account to use yourself, demo to clients, and see how it works
• Monthly earnings report emailed to you with your referral count and payout
• Direct line to me for questions, ideas, or concerns. I'm building this with partners, not just for them.

As the program grows and I get feedback from actual partners, I'll build more. But I'd rather promise less and deliver more than the other way around.

Why Your Clients Need This

You're not just earning a commission. You're recommending something that actually helps.

Google reviews matter for local businesses:

• Local SEO: Reviews are a top 3 ranking factor for Google Maps, so more reviews means higher visibility
• Trust: 81% of consumers check reviews before choosing a local business, so no reviews means no trust
• Revenue: Harvard Business School found a 1-star rating improvement leads to 5-9% more revenue

Your clients are probably sitting on dozens of happy customers every month who would leave a review if someone just made it easy.

ReviewSimple makes it easy. $19.99/month with no contracts. Competitors charge $249-299/month for the same core functionality.

When you recommend ReviewSimple, you're not pushing software. You're helping clients grow their business, and that's what matters.

Why 20% With No Customer Discount?

Some partner programs give customers a discount when they use a partner code. We don't.

Here's why: at $19.99/month, a $4 discount is meaningless. Nobody's making a business decision based on saving $4/month.

What actually drives the sale is your recommendation. Your clients trust you, and that trust is worth more than any discount.

So instead of splitting the value between you and the customer, we give it all to you. 20% recurring, no games.
