§ 01 · How it works
Three steps, zero friction.
Submit the form below
Tell us who you're referring and why you think they're a good fit. A name and a line of context is enough — we'll take it from there.
We reach out within 48 hours
Daniel contacts the founder directly for a 20-minute growth diagnostic call. No hard sell — just an honest look at their constraint.
You get paid £500
When the founder signs any WSS engagement, we pay your £500 referral fee via bank transfer within 14 days of their first invoice.
§ 02 · Who can refer
This works for anyone in the startup ecosystem.

Advisors & angels
Portfolio founders stuck on pipeline and still doing everything themselves — this is the call they need.
🏦
VCs & investors
Post-PMF SaaS companies in your portfolio where the product works but pipeline is still founder-dependent.
🎙️
Podcast listeners & followers
If you've consumed the content and know someone who fits — founders doing £1–10M ARR — you're qualified to refer.
§ 03 · Make your referral
Send us the intro.
Takes about 2 minutes. We'll confirm receipt by email.
§ 04 · Questions
A few things people usually ask.
Does the founder need to know I'm referring them? +
Yes — a warm intro always converts better than a cold one. We recommend giving them a heads-up before you submit. If you'd prefer a blind referral, note that in the context field and we'll handle it carefully.
Which engagements qualify? +
Any paid WSS engagement counts — Growth Diagnosis (£4k), 90-Day Sprint (£15k), Acquisition System Build (£30k), or Fractional CMO (£8k/mo). The £500 reward is fixed regardless of engagement size.
How long is the referral window? +
If the founder you refer signs within 12 months of your submission, you're eligible for the reward. If they come back after a gap, just re-submit to refresh the attribution.
Is there a limit to how many referrals I can make? +
No limit. Refer as many qualified founders as you like — £500 per conversion, every time.
What if the founder isn't a good fit? +
No problem — Daniel will give them an honest read on the call. If they're pre-PMF or not ready, we'll say so and point them somewhere useful. You won't be penalised for referring someone who turns out not to be the right fit.
