BluePanda Partner Program

Your deal. Negotiated with the founder. Honored as written.

The BluePanda AI Partner Program for solutions reps, independent reps, and staffing pros. No comp plan, no fine print — a fair deal agreed one-on-one and put in writing before you refer.

We’ve heard the stories

Commissions capped after the deal closed. Plans rewritten mid-quarter. Accounts suddenly “house.” Clauses nobody mentioned. If you’ve lived any of that, you deserved better. That’s why there’s no one-size plan here — just a direct, written deal with the person who signs the checks.

Clear terms. Kept promises.

The Partner Promise

Negotiated with the founder.

You deal with Mark directly — not a comp committee, not a portal.

Written before you refer.

No verbal ‘we’ll take care of you.’ The terms are on paper first.

Honored as written.

What’s in the memo is what you get.

No surprise caps.

If a limit isn’t in the memo you signed, it doesn’t exist.

No changing terms after the fact.

Once signed, the deal doesn’t get ‘updated.’

No loopholes.

Plain language. If something’s unclear, it gets clarified before signing — not used against you later.

Honest and fair.

Mark will tell you straight what works for a given deal and what doesn’t.

Respect for your employer.

If your employer restricts outside referral fees, say so and we’ll work within that — or not do the deal.

How it works

  1. Reach out.

    Tell Mark who you sell to and what kind of arrangement you’d like.

  2. Talk it through with Mark.

    One-on-one. Every opportunity is different — an intro, a co-sell, a recurring account — so the deal is shaped around it.

  3. Get it in writing before you refer.

    A short deal memo, signed by both of you, before any intro.

  4. Make the intro.

    Stay as involved as you agreed.

  5. BluePanda sells and delivers.

  6. You get paid exactly as the memo says.

Why there’s no rate card

Every opportunity is different. A quick intro to a small business isn’t the same as co-selling a multi-phase engagement with a credit union. So rather than a rate card full of exceptions, Mark works out each deal with you directly — honestly and fairly — and writes it down before you refer.

Who we help (what to listen for)

Banks, credit unions & fintech · Mid-sized companies stuck in AI pilots · Utah small businesses · Teams needing AI governance, automation, or custom AI.

Listen for: “the board asked about our AI plan,” “our pilot stalled,” “staff are using ChatGPT and compliance is nervous,” “we can’t hire AI talent.”

Frequently asked questions

What do you pay?

It depends on the deal. Mark negotiates each one directly with you based on the opportunity and your involvement, and puts it in writing before you refer.

Why not a standard rate?

Every deal is unique. A one-on-one agreement fits the real situation better than a plan full of exceptions.

Will the terms change later?

No. Once signed, the deal is honored as written.

Are there caps?

Only if you both agreed to one in writing. No surprise caps.

Do I need to sell?

That’s up to you — an intro, co-selling, or something else. It’s part of what you agree on.

When do we put it in writing?

Before you make the referral. Always.

I work for a company / staffing firm. Is this allowed?

Check your employer’s policy. Tell us any restrictions and we’ll work within them — or not do the deal.

Taxes?

You’re responsible for your own; US partners may receive a 1099. Ask your tax advisor.
