Overview of a Business Referral Agreement
What is a Business Referral Agreement?
A Business Referral Agreement is a contract that outlines how a business that refers work to another business or individual will be paid.
It makes good business sense to reward people or businesses for referring work to another business using a Business Referral Agreement. Incentivising referrals may also help bring in new clients or customers.
Rather than relying on an informal understanding, it is best to use a Business Referral Agreement, which sets out how much, when, and how the referrer will be paid.
