Ragic is a powerful No Code tool that empowers enterprises to digitalize their business processes effortlessly.

There are several ways to earn revenue as a Ragic Consulting Partner.
1. By referring Ragic: Partners who solely acquire customers, without providing any additional support services, can receive a 10% commission on the calculated customer licensing fees for the first year or until the client changes support service partners, whichever occurs last.
2. By providing support services: After acquiring a customer, you can offer support services. As the primary contact for any customer inquiries or assistance needs, you can earn an additional 10% commission for every payment made by the customer.
When combined, you can earn up to a 20% commission by both acquiring customers and providing support services. Alternatively, you may solely acquire a new client without providing support, or become the designated service partner for a client referred by someone else. Commissions are typically distributed approximately one month after each quarter.
3. By handling database projects: If Ragic refers a user to you for custom project development or you accept projects through Ragic Community, those clients won't count as new clients you've brought in. Instead, you can charge project service fees and annual maintenance fees based on the actual work done, negotiated directly with the client without Ragic's involvement. For clients with custom programs, it's recommended to quote an annual maintenance fee for ongoing support.
Once you've completed custom projects, if the collaboration is successful, you can discuss becoming the client's primary support service partner. If agreed upon, you can charge an additional 10% commission for the support services provided.
Tips:
1. Boost your visibility and expand your project opportunities by sharing your database design portfolio on the Ragic Community. Showcasing your expertise can attract potential clients and increase your chances of landing gigs!
2. As Ragic respects the autonomy of your partnerships by not intervening in your cooperation with clients, it's essential for you and your clients to establish clear terms. We strongly advise both parties to sign a contract to safeguard your respective rights and interests.
Ragic Developer Program
Ragic Developer Program enables partners to showcase their templates in Ragic Template Library. It's ideal for partners deeply familiar with specific industries who seek to monetize their templates directly. Also, if you possess system design skills but lack the resources to build a customer base, listing your templates in the Ragic Template Library offers access to a broader audience. It's not just a revenue stream but also a platform to promote your services.
By listing your templates, they become visible to all Ragic users. This eliminates the need for costly advertising and allows you to connect with targeted audiences—users who are already utilizing or seeking related systems. Paid templates are sold with authorization codes, so partners can set their own prices and payment methods. Users can then purchase these codes using the contact information provided by partners.
When it comes to quoting for projects, it's essential to provide a clear breakdown of potential costs to the client before proceeding with database design and development. If you're new to this gigs, here are some tips to consider:
(1) Break down all potential costs to the client before starting the project. You can itemize these costs and include them in your quote. Some partners also include consultation fees as part of their quotation. For example, the first 30-minute meeting might be free, but subsequent discussions may incur a consultation fee.
(2) Throughout the project, if you discover that your initial quote underestimated the actual requirements, have a conversation with the client. Transparency is key, so be upfront about the time and cost allocated in the initial quote. Any additional work or time beyond the agreed terms should be separately quoted and discussed.
Partner Center is where all partner-related tools and information are integrated.You need to first obtain partner credentials to log in. Here, you can help customers set up database accounts, access relevant documents and resources, report your successful cases, view your current customers, check customer payment records and commission details, set your tax ID, contact address, bank transfer information, and more.
Ragic has also introduced new features to streamline partner-customer collaboration. For example, the cross-database sheet copy tool makes it simple to duplicate sheet designs, all conveniently available within the Partner Center.

If the service doesn't meet customer expectations, they may request a different partner, resulting in the loss of the initial 10% support service commission for the partner. However, if you referred the customer, you will still earn a 10% commission in the first year. Therefore, consistently providing excellent service and fostering strong customer relationships are key to growing commission income.
