I can think of two kinds of ideal partners:

-  Folks with a website and a strong following (Thought Leaders), and

-  Folks who'd like to make some seed capital to get their own micro-business going (MBizzers.)

In both cases, the partnership works the same:  you refer friends and followers to MBF and I give you 30% of all revenue. Our most popular coaching level is the "Supremo" level and that costs $99 a month.  So, you'd be making $29.70 per month, each time one of your referrals works with our coaches (i.e. 30% of $99.) Obviously, that adds up fast.

1. Thought Leaders. A "Thought Leader" is a Seth Godin term and it means "someone who leads a tribe." If you’re a thought leader on the internet – if you’re someone hundreds or thousands of people listen to about some area of expertise – then you’re probably sitting on a gold mine of folks who would love to get their own small business started.  They just don’t know where to start.  We’ll help them start.  Then, they’ll pay us both for doing them the favor.

In other words, if you’re a person that hundreds look to for info regarding Star Wars action figures -- or hamsters, or crocheting, or scrapbooking, or auto wax or whatever your cool thing might be into -- most of your followers will also have some interest in pumping up their income by turning their passion into a micro-business.  That’s what we do.  We help people turn their desire to start a business into reality.  You can help and make some bank in the meantime.

One problem with being a Thought Leader on the internet is that it doesn't usually pay squat.  Sure, you can put a Gerber baby food banner on your Mommy-blog, or you can slap up some Commission Junction affiliate banners on your baseball card blog, but you're probably not making the kind of money that you deserve, considering all the time and expertise you put into it.

I'm utterly convinced that I have the mega-partnership for Thought Leaders.  Here's why I think this partnership's special:

a. The vast majority of websites are frequented by people who would like start their own business because the vast majority of people want to start their own business. More than 72% of adults said they'd considered starting their own business.  In this economy, the number's probably lots higher. Launching a business is a thought that appeals to most people.  It's not baby food.

b. I pay 30% of revenues. If you've already shopped for affiliate deals, I don't need to say any more.  30% is a huge payout and it makes it a hell of a lot easier to make respectable money.

c. The content here rocks. The Showdown Game. Micro-business Fanatic TV. Free biz tools. Piles of naked celebrities eating creme danishes.  What more could your followers want?

'Nough said.  Click here to upgrade (for free) your MBF membership to a MBF partnership.  You'll then be taken to a page with all the goodies you'll need to start referring people. 

2. MBizzers. "MBizzers" is a term pioneered by ME that means "a person who'd like to start their own micro-business and make some bank."

If you have a bunch of friends who think that starting a micro-business might be cool, then you could make some nice seed money for your own micro-biz by turning them on to this website and my coaching service. 

If you have hundreds or thousands of friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter, you could make more money even than that.  It’s very simple:  when you groove on something I say, pass it along to your friends.  If they groove on it enough to purchase some coaching and mentoring from my team of micro-business fanatics, I’ll give you 30% of our revenues (“revenues” means “every dollar I’m paid.”)

By talking to your Facebook friends and your Twitter followers about the stuff you think's cool on this website, you can turn a decent amount of money and then use it to get your own business started. 

Um.  There's not much to it:  when we make a dollar, you get 30 cents.

Sign up HERE as a partner, and I'll give you tools to send your referrals to the site.  When your friends and followers come to Micro-business Fanatic through an email, link, Tweet, Facebook page, or banner that you've placed, we'll "flag" them as referrals from you.  Then, when we get paid, you get paid.

To keep processing costs reasonable, I'll send you a check whenever your split exceeds $60 in any given month. Again, this is a "revenue split," meaning that you get paid right off the barrel-head. We don't back out costs, etc. before your split is calculated.

Primarily, we'll both be making money by providing business coaching services.  It's a lot more exciting than it sounds at first. Check out our stunningly-great business coaching. We have a variety of levels of coaching, but we'll primarily recommend our $99 a month, "Supremo" level. That means you'll make $29.70 each time a referral of yours gets our help (i.e. 30% of $99.)

We'll give you a bunch of tools to help your friends and followers hook up with us -- sample Facebook posts, sample Tweets, sample emails, banners, and you can always talk up new blogs, games and M-Bizz Fanatic TV shows on your own blog, website, Facebook page, Twitter, etc.. 

If you're like me, you'd never consider promoting junk just to make money.  I'm doing my very best to provide the most amazing content possible so that you and your friends really dig MBF. I want you to talk it up because you're crazy about the content and the ideas.

Let me know how I'm doing.

I can't believe you're even asking this.  No sooner do we become business partners and you start laying stuff on me like this.  (Heavy sigh.)

I’m convinced that we have the “silver bullet” to getting a micro-business going.  Basically, we’ve seen that two monsters kill the average micro-business and we have the goods to take them both out:

First Monster:  They don’t know where to start. We know exactly where to start and where to go from there, each step of the way. (How so?)

Second Monster:  They can’t get off the couch.  We’re jedi-masters at inspiring people to get off the couch. Seriously, we have wicked powers of mind control. (How so?)
