How to raise it

  • Frame it as found money, not a risk.
  • Point them to a free, no-files estimate.
  • Make the introduction; we handle the rest.

Referral fees, done properly

Introducing advisers earn a share of our fee, agreed in writing and disclosed to the client. We never pay or receive fees per appointment from insolvency practitioners. Refer a client.

Key takeaways
  • You already have the trust and the context.
  • A free estimate is an easy first step.
  • Referral fees must be agreed and disclosed.
