Question 3

You mentioned "Community Generated Content", what is that?

Accepted Answer

Community Generated Content (CGC) refers to any type of content that is created by a community of individuals, rather than by a single organization. This content can include everything from user-generated reviews and testimonials, to expert opinions and thought leadership pieces. Community generated content is important because it allows businesses to build stronger connections with their audience, by leveraging the collective expertise, opinions, and experiences of their community.

By tapping into the power of community-generated content, businesses can drive engagement, build trust, and create a more authentic and engaging brand experience for their customers. MarketScale allows for B2B companies to generate CGC at greater scale and cost through their platform's technology; giving organizations more chances to enable this content than ever before.

Question 5

What is the Guide Community commission structure?

Accepted Answer

At MarketScale, we truly value the connections our Guides help us build. We back that appreciation with a rewarding commission structure for facilitating successful partnerships.

When a Guide connects us with partners that lead to a signed agreement, you'll receive a 20% commission on the first paid invoice from the new partnership. Additionally, you will receive commission on any further invoices paid by the new partner within the first 12 months of the lifetime of the contract.

MarketScale's contracts are structured on a quarterly basis. New clients can sign on for as little as one quarter, or as long as four quarter, year-long agreement. The average deal size of a MarketScale partnership is approximately $86,000.

Question 6

How do you facilitate commission payments?

Accepted Answer

At MarketScale, we've streamlined our payment process to ensure our Guides receive their due compensation efficiently and securely. Immediately upon onboarding, we send out the necessary forms to set up direct deposit payments. This facilitates a seamless transaction process for every successful referral that leads to a signed MarketScale Partnership.

As for the payment timeline, it's straightforward. If a client makes a payment, you receive your direct deposit on either the 15th or the 30th day of the following month. So, for example, if a client payment comes in on January 1st, you can expect your compensation to be directly deposited on January 15th. This clear, predictable process ensures that you're promptly rewarded for your valuable contributions to the Guide Community.

Question 7

What are some examples of commission payments that Guide Community members have received?

Accepted Answer

At MarketScale, we believe in rewarding our Guides for their invaluable contributions. As a Guide, the commission you receive is a reflection of the successful partnerships you help forge. While the exact commission can vary depending on the specifics of the partnership, in 2023 our Guides have received commissions ranging from $1,500 to as high as $42,000. On average, a Guide's commission payment from facilitated partnerships has been approximately $11,000. It's a testament to the strength of our network and the significant role our Guides play in MarketScale's growth and success.
