Earn referral fees by joining the

Door4 Partner Program

The Door4 Partner Program rewards our friends and partners, who can introduce us to prospective clients.

We pay a financial incentive for introductions to businesses that turn into paid contracts. We get paid, you get paid.

We have many partners currently working with us (and receiving payment) on the scheme, and are always looking for new partners to bring on-board.

GET STARTED

What kind of clients do Door4 look for?

Our performance framework is particularly suited to “digitally reliant” e-commerce and lead-generation businesses.

That is, companies that either trade online (selling goods and services, and usually taking online payment) or are looking to create a volume of leads/enquiries.

What is an ideal referral?

We really look for businesses that want to grow, ambitiously.

These will usually invest in most aspects of digital performance marketing. For Door4, that includes:

SEO – organic search, technical SEO and content
Paid media – Google Adwords, PPC, paid social, Google Shopping
Conversion Rate Optimisation/UX– continually improving transactional and lead-generation website performance
Web development – lead-generation and e-commerce businesses

Of course, every business has different needs, but this gives our prospective Partners a good indication.

That makes sense – but what size do referrals need to be?

Most of our clients invest in digital marketing as a core operational expense.

Usually, we’re looking to engage clients who generate annual sales of >£3 million, and spend £3000+ per month with their digital agency.

That’s not to say we don’t consider smaller challenger brands, but to ensure we’re on the same page, we don’t typically work with start-ups and micro-businesses.

Any specific sectors?

We work well with clients in:

home & garden (furniture, garden equipment, etc)
aftermarket automotive (paint and vehicle resale)
renewables (solar, renewable energy projects)
family sector (fostering)
medtech (healthcare equipment)
legal services (lawyers, barristers)

We are happy to consider most sectors*, as long as the client has marketing ambition.

* we avoid gambling/tobacco/vaping.

Do I get paid in cash?

We regularly update our Partners with commissions due, and we request an invoice for that amount which is paid promptly into a bank account of your choice.

Payments are made quarterly in arrears.

If you prefer your commission payments to be paid to a charity of your choice, we are happy to arrange that.

Go on, what’s the catch?

No catch. Honest.

Door4 Partners is a scheme to reward you for referring opportunities to us.

Nothing more complex than that. You don’t need to sign exclusivity arrangements, there is no ‘reciprocal’ requirement – and we don’t nag/bother you.

What are the rewards?

We pay you £100 for an introduction to a relevant prospect company. (Payable when we get a meaningful face-to-face or telephone meeting to discuss a project.)

We pay £500 if they become a billable client, at any level. (Payable to you upon receipt of first payment.)

We pay a further £500 if they are still a client, at any level, after 12 months. (Payable to you upon receipt of first payment after 12 months.)

(Up to £1100 payable to you.)

The Door4 Partner Program is particularly suitable for creative, IT and PR agencies who offer complementary services.

What do I have to do?

You just need to introduce us to a decision-maker within the client business (in writing – email is fine and we have a form).
There are no further obligations, and you are not required to participate in any sales or pitch process.
We formally request an invoice from you, when referral payments to you are due. (We remind you, not the other way around.)
You send the invoice, and you get paid within 30 days.

How long does the scheme last?

The scheme technically lasts for 12 months for each referral. (The final payment is paid after 12 months.)

Do I have any obligations?

There is no catch. You are not obliged to refer any clients to us, and there is no exclusivity clause. You can refer work to other agencies as well.

Is this open to 'competitors'?

Door4 Partners is particularly popular with other digital agencies, some larger, some smaller.
If you have opportunities that you can’t work on, that fit us, Door4 Partners is a chance to capture revenue by way of commission.
Several ‘competitors’ are members of Door4 Partners and receive commissions from us.
We don’t see competition, only collaboration.
