Commercial Referral Partner (Independent, Commission-Based)

Remote

Do you know business owners or decision makers who need help managing rising and uncertain electricity and natural gas costs, or are seeking ways to achieve sustainability or resiliency objectives? This is a simple way to help them while earning additional income.

We’re looking for Referral Partners to introduce us to businesses that could benefit from expert energy cost management.

About the role:

  • This is not a direct hire or salaried position. Referral Partners are independent and earn commission for introductions that lead to new clients.
  • There’s no requirement to leave your current role or take on a full-time commitment.

What you’ll do:

  • Leverage your network to introduce us to business owners or decision makers
  • Facilitate an initial introduction or call
  • We handle the rest of the process

Why it’s worth it:

  • Flexible and low time commitment
  • No change to your current job or business
  • Ongoing commission potential
  • High relevance, as companies are actively looking to better manage energy costs

Great fit for:

  • Entrepreneurs
  • Accountants
  • Lawyers
  • Commercial insurance brokers
  • Engineers
  • Former utility account managers
  • Commercial real estate brokers or asset managers.

If you have a strong network and want to create an additional income stream without taking on a new role, we’d love to connect.
