Partnership guide for consultants
For SEO, PPC and marketing consultants who want to offer clients PR articles, links and mentions without their own publisher network. You stay the face and the expert, we are the supplier behind you. We will not approach a client you look after.
We never tell the client your purchase price or margin, and we never offer them a lower price than you do.
We talk about what clients you have and how much time you want to spend on delivery. Two ways have proven themselves for consultants:
How to price link building: How much to charge for link building.
We sign a short agreement, the same as with agencies. We commit not to approach your clients, you commit not to deal with publishers from our catalogue directly. We send you the text after the introductory call, before signing. What the agreement guarantees.
Client protection lasts 12 months from the first order and is extended for as long as you look after the client.
You register as an advertiser and get access to the catalogue with parameters and prices upfront. One account covers all your clients.
Send us the client's company name, company ID and contact person by e-mail. We confirm the registration within 10 working days. From the confirmation, the client is protected even before their first order, for up to 6 months.
Register clients you are only talking to as well. Protection runs from the confirmed registration.
You have an advantage: you already know the client's website, keywords and campaigns. From an audit or PPC data you know where authority is missing and which queries competitors hold the top spots for. Build your recommendation on that: how many publications, in which fields and why.
For PPC consultants: PR articles as an additional service for PPC consultants.
You choose in the catalogue by industry, audience and price, without calling newsrooms. For narrow niches, the AI agent helps: based on the brief, it finds and contacts further suitable media and returns a shortlist for approval. We are opening the agent gradually from 1 October 2026.

You are not selling the client "links" but a result: website authority, mentions in their field and visibility in search and in AI answers. Base the price on the full cost and do not forget to include your own work on selection and checks.

You top up credit through the GoPay payment gateway or by bank transfer; on working days a transfer usually arrives by the next day. You get one invoice per top-up. With a referral, the client pays for credit from their own account.
You post a request and publishers with suitable space send offers. When you accept an offer, its price is reserved in your credit. It is only deducted after the publication is completed and checked.
You write the text yourself, the medium writes it, or a copywriter does. The client approves it before it goes to the publisher. A paid publication is always labelled as sponsored content.
The publisher publishes and submits the article URL. We check that the publication matches the order and only then pay for it. You get the link for the client.
Put publications into your regular report next to the SEO or PPC numbers: full cost, cost per conversion and long-term benefit, for example branded search. The client will see that PR works together with the other channels.

Be the client's contact person: get in touch at least once every 90 days and answer questions within 2 working days. As long as you do, the client protection is extended automatically after the 12 months.
If the care slips, the protection does not end straight away. First comes a written notice, and there are 30 days to put things right.
Repeat the same process with other clients: purchases and the history of publications are in one place. If a client contacts us directly, we let you know within 3 working days and handle the deal through you.

The most common worry of partners is that the marketplace will take their client. That is why we build the partnership on a non-disclosure and client protection agreement. This is what we guarantee in it:
What we ask of you: not to deal with publishers from our catalogue directly (during the partnership and for 12 months after it) and to look after the client: contact at least once every 90 days and a reply within 2 working days. Publishers you already worked with before can be excluded from this obligation.
Based on the non-disclosure and client protection agreement and the partner programme terms.
| What | Value | Where it applies |
|---|---|---|
| Confirmation of client registration | within 10 working days | step 4 |
| Client protection before the first order | max. 6 months | step 4 |
| Client protection from the first order | 12 months + extension | steps 2 and 13 |
| Contact with the client | at least once every 90 days | step 13 |
| Reply to the client | within 2 working days | step 13 |
| Remedy after a notice | 30 days | step 13 |
| Notice of direct contact by the client | within 3 working days | step 14 |
| Reward when reselling | min. 5 % of the price excl. VAT | step 1 |
| Referral commission | 10 % for 24 months | step 1 |
Yes, that is exactly what the catalogue is for. You choose media by industry and price and we take care of the publication. Your value lies in judging what the client needs, not in a list of contacts.
No. We will not approach a registered client for 12 months from their first order, and the protection is extended for as long as you look after them. We will not tell them your purchase price or margin either. It is in the agreement you get after the introductory call.
Reselling suits you when you want control over delivery and to invoice it as part of your service. Referral suits you when you want to focus on strategy only and the client buys publications themselves.
One publication through the marketplace takes roughly one to two hours of your work: selection, ordering and checking. Searching for media and negotiating with newsrooms falls away.
