Partnership model

Performance Partner Program

For businesses that want shared upside with clear rules — base monthly fee, 90-day measurement window, baseline before work starts, and written scope on what counts as performance.

Shared upside with written attribution rules

Monthly agency retainers rarely tie fees to measurable outcomes. Performance partnerships need a base fee for systems work, a 90-day measurement window, baseline captured before launch, and written scope on what counts as a attributable lead or booking.

Partnership fit assumes tracking infrastructure exists or will be built — CRM outreach, analytics, referral attribution, and owner dashboards from the business-growth-systems lane.

Three live Tampa Bay growth-system clients prove the stack at different scales: Knight Group (97 handyman pages, kg lane), Faith Works (82 land-clearing pages, faithworks lane), and Screen Team (36 enclosure pages, st lane). Documented baselines on all three clients exemplify the measurement foundation performance terms require.

The problem

Agency retainers rarely tie fees to measurable outcomes

Owners pay monthly without knowing what changed. Performance promises stay vague. Attribution fights start when leads increase but nobody documented the baseline.

  • No baseline captured before work begins
  • Performance metrics undefined or unmeasurable
  • Reporting is vanity traffic instead of calls and bookings
  • Cancellation and dispute terms unclear upfront

What this includes

Built from live Knight Logics workflows — not generic agency checklists.

Structure

Base + performance fee

Predictable base for systems work with a performance component tied to agreed metrics.

Window

90-day measurement

Baseline captured before launch; results measured inside a defined window — not moving goalposts.

Metrics

What counts

Defined lead, call, booking, or revenue signals with attribution documented in writing.

Reporting

Monthly dashboard

Tracked outcomes, caps, failures, and next actions — readable by ownership.

Terms

Limits & disputes

Minimum term, cancellation, monthly cap, and dispute process agreed before work starts.

Systems required

Performance needs tracking infrastructure

Partnership fit assumes growth systems exist or will be built — CRM, analytics, referral attribution, and reporting from the Business Growth Systems lane.

  • Knight Command-style visibility for queue and lead sources
  • Outreach and referral attribution for defensible metrics
  • Monthly owner review tied to real ops data

Typical deliverables

Scoped to your trade, territory, and ops maturity — not a one-size package.

Partnership structure

  • Base monthly fee for systems and maintenance work
  • Performance component tied to agreed metrics

  • Minimum term, cancellation, and dispute terms in writing

Attribution infrastructure

  • Call, form, booking, or revenue signal definitions
  • CRM and referral attribution wiring
  • Monthly owner dashboard with caps and failures
  • Knight Command-style visibility for queue review

Reporting cadence

  • Monthly review with tracked outcomes
  • Prioritized next actions from ops data
  • Vanity metric exclusion from performance counts
  • Written changelog when scope or metrics adjust
Systems prerequisite

Performance requires measurable lanes

We do not offer performance-only deals on brochure sites without tracking — foundation and systems lanes deploy first or in parallel.

  • business-growth-systems as typical partnership stack
  • website-growth-audit for baseline documentation
  • referral-network-systems for partner attribution
  • crm-outreach-lead-generation for pipeline metrics

How we build it

A clear path from intake to launch — scoped to what your team will actually use.

1

Fit & baseline

Audit current leads, tracking gaps, and whether metrics are measurable.

2

Written terms

Define base fee, performance component, attribution, caps, and window.

3

Systems launch

Deploy or fix tracking, outreach, and reporting before performance clock starts.

4

Monthly review

Report outcomes, adjust tactics, and document next 90-day priorities.

Outcomes we design for

Measurable operator results — not vanity dashboards.

Aligned incentives

Both parties know what counts before work starts — reducing attribution fights later.

Defensible metrics

Leads and bookings tracked in systems — not guessed from analytics spikes.

Predictable base

Systems maintenance funded while performance component rewards shared upside.

Exit clarity

Cancellation and dispute process agreed upfront — not negotiated under pressure.

Best fit for

Owners who want accountability beyond a standard retainer

Businesses with measurable call, form, or booking volume

Teams willing to implement tracking and follow-up discipline

Growth system clients ready for a long-term partnership lane

Common questions

What metrics qualify for performance?

Typically tracked calls, form submits, booked consults, or attributed revenue — defined in writing before the 90-day window starts.

Is there a minimum term?

Yes — partnership terms include minimum term, cancellation rules, and monthly caps documented in the agreement.

Can I start with a standard project instead?

Absolutely — many clients begin with website-growth-audit or business-growth-systems before exploring performance partnership fit.

Base monthly fee plus performance component — terms, caps, and attribution defined in writing before launch.
