Turn trusted relationships into recurring opportunity.
Connectors are credible local people — accountants, consultants, community leaders, industry veterans — with real relationships to business owners. When your introductions become active clients, you may earn recurring compensation.
Your role is the introduction — nothing more. Connectors don't quote pricing, promise savings, or recommend a processor. A Trailhead advisor does the analysis and owns the recommendation, which may well be that the business should stay exactly where it is. Compensation depends on qualified, active accounts and is not guaranteed.
