Identify Clients Who Qualify

Use the Client Qualification Checklist to screen clients before making introductions. The strongest candidates:

Need $15,000–$500,000 in working capital
Have been in business 1+ years
Have $15,000–$250,000+/month in bank deposits
Have been turned down by their bank for a line of credit or SBA loan
Have a specific use of funds: expansion, equipment, inventory, payroll bridge

You don't need to pre-qualify them precisely — that's our job. Just make sure they're legitimate businesses with real revenue. Referring clients who have 5+ NSFs every month or no revenue will waste everyone's time.

Make the Introduction

The simplest way: forward your client an email with your referral link. Here is a template:

Subject: Connecting You With a Working Capital Resource

Hi [Client Name],

During our last conversation, you mentioned needing working capital for [reason]. I wanted to connect you with a resource I've been recommending to clients who need faster access to capital than traditional bank loans allow.

Towers Asset Group (T.A.G.) is a business funding specialist I've worked with. They specialize in merchant cash advances for established businesses — approval decisions in 24–48 hours, funded in 2–3 days.

You can start an application here: [YOUR REFERRAL LINK]

Feel free to reach out with any questions. This is completely non-obligatory — they'll give you terms before any commitment is required.

Best,
[Your Name]

We Handle the Entire Process

Once your client applies through your referral link, we take over completely:

Application review and initial qualification
Document collection (bank statements, ID, voided check)
Underwriting and offer generation (24–48 hours)
Terms presentation and client questions
Funding (24–48 hours after approval)

You are not involved in any of these steps. We do not ask your client for your personal information or involve you in the transaction.

You'll receive a notification when your referred client funds. No paperwork on your end — your referral link tracks the deal from click to funding.

Receive Your Referral Fee

Your referral fee is calculated as 2–5% of the funded advance amount (per your partner agreement), paid within 5 business days of the advance funding date.

Payment method: ACH bank transfer or check (your choice)
Statement provided: funded amount, fee percentage, and fee amount
Annual 1099 provided for tax reporting
Track all referrals and earnings in the partner portal at any time

Disclosure Guidance for CPAs

Most state CPA boards require disclosure of referral fee arrangements to clients. We recommend including a brief disclosure in your client engagement letter or the referral email itself:

Disclosure Language Template

"Please be aware that I may receive a referral fee from Towers Asset Group LLC if you obtain funding through their program. This arrangement does not affect the advice I provide you, and you are under no obligation to use their services."

This is general guidance only. Consult your state's CPA board rules for specific requirements in your jurisdiction. See the CPA FAQ for more compliance information.
