Referral Bonus Details:
Bonus Structure:
Our referral program rewards you based on the value of the first project with the referred company. Here’s how it works:
Project Value | Your Bonus |
---|---|
Up to $10,000 | 6.5% |
$10,001-$40,000 | 8.25% |
Over $40,000 | 10% |
Examples:
- Sales up to $10,000: For any referral that results in a Statement of Work (SOW) totaling up to $10,000, a commission of 6.5% is given. This means if you refer a staff augmentation contract worth $10,000, you’ll earn a commission of $650.
- Sales from $10,001 to $40,000: For any referral that results in a SOW totaling between $10,001 and $40,000, the commission rate increases to 8.25%. For example, if you successfully refer a staff augmentation contract worth $20,000, you would earn a commission of $1,650.
- Sales above $40,000: For any referral that results in a SOW totaling over $40,000, you’re at the top commission bracket of 10%. So, if you refer a staff augmentation contract for a project manager working 40 hours a week for a year, and we charge approximately $250 per hour, the contract value would be approximately $520,000, and you would earn a commission of $52,000.

- Bonuses are paid once the referred company signs a contract with Acute PMC and provides a 15% non-refundable upfront payment for their first project.
