Welcome — and thank you for your interest.
​
I’m expanding my UGC Digital Magazine Licensing Program, and I’m paying partners who introduce me to qualified decision-makers interested in launching their own digital magazine.
​
This is not affiliate marketing.
This is revenue-sharing for real business deals.
​
If your introduction leads to a closed partnership, you share in the upside.
​
All you do is provide an email introduction.
​
If you know founders, brands, nonprofits, or community leaders who should own their media, you’re in the right place.
What You Earn
When a deal closes from your warm introduction, you receive:
-
25% of the Setup Fee
(Deal sizes range from $25,000 – $75,000) -
25% of my Revenue Split
(Ongoing upside as the magazine grows) -
25% of the Annual Licensing Renewal Fee
(Recurring revenue for as long as the partner renews)
​
This is designed for long-term participation, not one-time referral bonuses.
What Is Being Sold?
I license a UGC (User-Generated Content) Digital Magazine platform to:
-
Brands
-
Influencers & thought leaders
-
Nonprofits
-
Trade associations
-
Startup & professional communities
-
City or niche ecosystem builders
Partners become the Editor-in-Chief of their own digital publication, giving their community access to press, storytelling, and visibility—without traditional media gatekeepers.
It’s a media business in a box with built-in monetization and community-driven growth.
Who Makes a Great Referral?
You’re a great fit for this program if you know:
-
Founders who sit at the center of a niche or industry
-
Influencers with strong community credibility
-
Leaders of nonprofits, associations, or professional groups
-
Operators building ecosystems (startups, creators, cities, industries)
-
Brand leaders who want to own their media instead of renting attention
If they have a network and a point of view, they’re a fit.
How It Works (Simple)
-
Make a warm email introduction - Introduce me to the decision-maker via email.
-
CC both of us on the intro - Send the intro to:
📩 designtalklive@gmail.com -
I handle the pitch and sales process - You don’t have to sell, present, or negotiate.
-
If the deal closes, you get paid - Payouts are triggered on closed and collected revenue.
That’s it.
Why This Works
People don’t need more marketing.
They need a platform to be seen.
Most businesses, founders, and leaders will never be featured in traditional media. This model democratizes access to press and gives communities their own publication—while creating a scalable business for the Editor-in-Chief.
Your introductions help unlock:
-
Visibility for underrepresented voices
-
Ownership of media for niche communities
-
Sustainable revenue for ecosystem builders
You’re not just making money.
You’re helping people own their narrative.
Referral Guidelines
-
Warm introductions only (no cold spam)
-
Intros should be to decision-makers or founders
-
Referral eligibility is tied to closed, paid partnerships
-
Commission applies to setup fees, rev share, and renewals
​
If you’re unsure whether someone is a fit, make the intro anyway. I’ll qualify them.
