Partnerships · Three Ways to Work Together

Build more for your clients. Earn more from your network.

Grant & Graham partners with professionals, firms, and tools that share our standard of quality. Three distinct models, referral, co-delivery and technology, each designed to create real, measurable value on both sides.

01 · Referral Partners

Refer clients. Earn commission. Stay focused on your own practice.

The simplest partnership model. When your client has a problem you’re not placed to solve, such as interim leadership, transformation, GaaS or company formation, introduce them to Grant & Graham. If the engagement converts, you earn commission.

Best fit for
  • Accountants seeing clients face CFO or transformation gaps
  • Lawyers advising on restructuring, M&A, or market entry
  • Executive coaches whose clients hit organisational limits
  • Corporate finance / M&A advisors pre- and post-transaction
  • Wealth managers & family offices with portfolio company exposure
  • Senior recruiters who sometimes hear “interim first”
  • VCs & PE firms needing post-investment operational support
How it works
1

Sign the partner agreement

A short, plain-English agreement. Commission rate, terms, and scope agreed up front.

2

Introduce a client

A warm email introduction to Andrew or a regional partner is all it takes. No portal, no paperwork per client.

3

We take it from there

We qualify the fit, run the scoping call, and manage the client relationship end-to-end. You stay informed but not involved.

4

Earn commission on conversion

Commission is paid on invoice settlement, typically a percentage of first-engagement fees or a recurring share over twelve months, exact structure agreed per partner.

02 · Consultant & Firm Partners

Co-deliver larger mandates. Keep your own brand.

For boutique consultancies, specialist firms, and individual senior practitioners with their own established practice. Rather than absorbing you into our bench, we co-deliver: your brand on your work, our brand on ours, revenue shared based on contribution.

When it makes sense
  • Boutique consultancies bidding on mandates bigger than their own bench
  • Training providers wanting to bolt on senior advisory
  • Regional firms needing UK, NL, US, or MEA delivery capacity
  • Specialist domain firms in AI, security or M&A needing broader business context
  • Senior independents wanting a partner for multi-workstream work
  • International firms entering a new geography where G&G has presence
How the model works
1

Partnership scoping call

30 minutes. What you do, what we do, where the overlap creates value. Honest appraisal of whether this is a good fit. We don’t force partnerships that aren’t natural.

2

Co-delivery framework

Master Collaboration Agreement covering IP, client ownership, commercial split principles, and confidentiality. Signed once, then each engagement gets a lightweight scope letter on top.

3

Joint pursuit or introduction

Either side can bring an opportunity. Client relationship sits with whoever holds the primary contract; revenue shared per the split agreed upfront.

4

Delivery & revenue share

Workload and commercials aligned through each engagement. Typical structures: proportional to delivery contribution, or a finder’s component plus delivery rates. White-label arrangements also available.

03 · Tools We Use & Recommend

Four platforms we rely on ourselves and recommend to clients.

These are not arm’s-length endorsements. Grant & Graham uses each of these tools internally, recommends them to clients setting up or scaling, and earns a referral fee when you sign up through the links below. Signup incentives pass through to you where available.

Company Formation

Rapid Formations

Company formation made easy · from £2.99

UK company registration in hours, including business bank account setup and ongoing compliance monitoring. The service we default to for clients incorporating a UK Ltd or LLP. Quick, reliable, well priced.

Accounting

QuickBooks

Small & medium business accounting, handled

Invoicing, expense tracking, payroll, VAT, and tax preparation in one place. The accounting platform we default to for small-to-mid-sized clients who want proper financial reporting without a full finance team. Real-time dashboards, bank integrations, and audit-ready exports.

Sign up to QuickBooks →
CRM · Marketing · CMS

HubSpot

The platform that runs grant-graham.co.uk

A full CRM, marketing automation, sales enablement, and CMS platform in one. We run the Grant & Graham website, client database, newsletter, and sales pipeline on HubSpot, and recommend it to any client building a real commercial engine rather than stitching point tools together.

Transparency note: Grant & Graham earns a referral fee when you sign up for any of the four platforms above through the links on this page. These fees do not affect your pricing. We only list tools we use ourselves and would recommend whether affiliate income existed or not.

Frequently Asked

Straight answers on the partner models.

What commission do referral partners earn?
Agreed in writing before any introduction is made. The common structures are a percentage of first-engagement fees (paid on invoice settlement) or a recurring share over 12 months for engagements that become ongoing. Specific numbers vary by partnership profile and engagement type. We’ll send you our standard terms on request.
Can I refer a client without a formal partnership in place?
Of course. We honour introductions even without a signed partnership agreement, but a formal agreement locks in commission terms in writing, which protects both sides over time. For one-off introductions it’s not strictly necessary; for anything recurring, we’d recommend it.
How is the revenue split on a consultant co-delivery engagement?
Proportional to delivery contribution by default. Each side invoices for its own day rate plus a small finder’s share if one side sourced the client. For more substantial white-label or branded-partnership work, structures get bespoke. Nothing in the commercial model is left to assumption. Everything is agreed in writing in the Master Collaboration Agreement before any client-facing work.
Can I keep my own brand on the delivery, or does it all go under Grant & Graham?
Both are available. Default is dual-brand presentation where both firms are visible to the client. White-label (your brand only, we deliver quietly) and reverse white-label (our brand only, you deliver in the background) are both options, chosen per engagement, not per partnership.
Do your tool partners cost extra when signed up through the site?
No. The referral fee we earn from Rapid Formations, Revolut, QuickBooks, and HubSpot is paid by the platform, not by you. Your pricing is the same whether you sign up via our link or directly, and occasionally better, because we pass through any signup promos we have access to.
How is confidentiality handled across partner relationships?
Mutual NDAs as standard, signed before any client data is shared in either direction. Client-specific NDAs respected and layered on top where relevant. No partner relationship requires disclosure of your other clients or engagements.
How do I become a partner?
Download the Partnership Application Form, complete it in any PDF reader and email it to partnerships@grant-graham.co.uk with the subject line Partnership Enquiry. It takes around 15 minutes. We reply within five working days and arrange a 30 minute scoping call with Andrew or the relevant regional partner.
Do I have to use the form, or can I just email?
The form is the quickest route because it answers the questions we would otherwise ask on the first call, so the scoping conversation can go straight to substance. If you would rather start with a short email, that is fine too. We may send you the form afterwards so we have your details on file.
Can I partner in more than one model at once?
Yes, and some of our best partner relationships combine models. A corporate finance advisor might refer clients (referral model) and co-deliver on M&A mandates (consultant model). Each model has its own commercial structure, so we just layer the agreements.
