What this structure costs on your numbers

Take a plan of $50 a month: $600 in the first 12 months, at a 70% gross margin. Keeping half of the gross profit leaves a reward budget of $210 for each referred customer. These are example figures, not HubSpot's.

With HubSpot's structure, the rewards for one referred customer cost $180. For 100 referred customers, if 50% would not have bought anyway, the program returns $3,000 of net contribution (16.7% ROI). It breaks even when 42.9% of referred customers are new because of it.

Start from the “Revenue share for partners” template

Partners earn a percentage of what the customers they send pay, for a fixed number of months.

  1. Create a free RefRef account and add your Project.
  2. Create a Program from the “Revenue share for partners” template.
  3. Set the rewards: 30% for 12 months for the partner, or your own amounts.
  4. Install the landing script and send the signup and purchase Events. RefRef connects each customer to their referrer and records the Rewards.
