Agency partnership model

Partnership pricing

The FusionSync AI partnership model is a phased white-label arrangement where agency owners validate demand with a free stack-based POC, roll out per-client implementations only after a paying client closes, earn vertical software as the base grows, and optionally own the product at 25 or 100 active clients.

Qualification

Who qualifies

Agency owners who already have paying clients or real prospects ready to pitch in one vertical. Not cold outreach pipelines, not idea-stage founders.

  • Paying clients or closable prospects in one vertical
  • A tech gap you cannot fulfil in-house today
  • Enough volume that white-label fulfilment beats hiring developers
  • Local knowledge of what software your market runs

Why partnership

Why choose the partnership model?

For agencies with an established client base, the challenge is not finding prospects. It is justifying the investment in building a product before demand is proven.

The traditional path means hiring developers, managing a technical team, and spending significant time and money upfront, all before you know whether your clients will actually buy it.

The FusionSync partnership model flips that sequence. Instead of building first and hoping clients follow, you validate demand with a working white-label AI solution, implement it only once a client is paying, and scale support as your client base grows. As your business proves itself, you earn the option to own the software outright.

Don't build a product to start a business. Build a business first, then earn the product.

Your job stays what it has always been: building relationships and closing clients. We handle the technology behind the scenes.

Phase 1

Free sales asset (POC)

The POC is your sales asset. We build it, you pitch it. One free POC per vertical. Next free POC unlocks only after you hit your first milestone (25 clients).

DeliverableWorking demo you can pitch to clients immediately
ConditionYou must have real clients ready to be pitched to. No cold outreach pipelines.
ScopeScoped to your specific vertical and client type

We build a working demo scoped to your vertical and client type. It runs on GoHighLevel, n8n, and the integrations your market needs. Not custom software yet. You pitch it to clients you already have. One free POC per vertical. Your next free POC unlocks after your first ownership milestone (25 active clients).

Phase 2

Client implementation tiers

Cost depends on solution complexity. We scope each project and provide a fixed quote within the tier range. Because this is a productized solution, implementation is faster and more consistent than one-off custom builds.

Tier 1: Simple solutions

$300 to $400

Implementation

  • Timeline: 3 to 7 days
  • Use cases: AI chatbot, basic CRM, appointment booking
  • Support: $300/month
  • Tickets: 10/month

Tier 2: Mid-complexity solutions

$500 to $700

Implementation

  • Timeline: 5 to 10 days
  • Use cases: Chatbot + receptionist, CRM automation, booking + SMS
  • Support: $400/month
  • Tickets: 15/month

Tier 3: Complex solutions

$800 to $1,000

Implementation

  • Timeline: 10 to 15 days
  • Use cases: Full stack: chatbot, receptionist, CRM, support, workflows, AI agents
  • Support: $500/month
  • Tickets: 40/month

Recurring

Per-client support after volume discount

The discount bracket applies to all active clients once reached. For example, a partner with 5 clients pays the 30% off rate on all 5 clients, not just clients 5 through 7. The rate is re-evaluated as your active client count changes.

Scale

Ownership milestones

As your active client base grows, you earn the right to own the software. Ownership is optional at each milestone. You can stay on the recurring model indefinitely.

25 active clients

Own the software for your geography and vertical plus tech stack combination. FusionSync will not build the same solution for competitors in your geography.

We step back from that geography for this vertical.

Transfer fee: $5,000 optional

100 active clients

Own the software globally for your vertical plus tech stack combination. Battle-tested product with a proven client base, not just code.

We replicate the model in the next market with a new partner.

Transfer fee: $15,000 optional

What you receive at ownership: a battle-tested codebase, documented integrations, working infrastructure, and an existing happy client base. Not just code.

Active client: Onboarded to the system and actively paying you.

After ownership

Then you choose how we continue

Two clean paths after ownership (or anytime you prefer fulfilment over hiring). Most partners keep Path A because ops is the hard part to staff.

PathWhat it meansCost
Path A: We continue managingFusionSync stays on as your tech partner. We maintain the product, handle updates, infrastructure, and scaling. Per-client recurring continues plus a product maintenance fee.Per-client recurring + $500/month product maintenance (baseline, discussed based on complexity)
Path B: Knowledge transferWe help you build and train your own team. Full documentation, codebase handover, and training sessions included. Clean exit with no ongoing obligation.Included in transfer fee. Additional training at $40/hour

Project maintenance vs product maintenance

Before ownership, we maintain your client implementations. This is project maintenance: keeping each client's system running, fixing bugs, handling support.

After ownership (Path A), we maintain the entire product: the codebase, infrastructure, security patches, version updates, and new feature development. This is priced accordingly with the +$500 baseline product maintenance fee on top of per-client recurring.

Path A

White-glove continuation

FusionSync stays on as your invisible tech partner. We maintain the product, handle updates, infrastructure, and scaling. Per-client recurring continues plus a product maintenance fee (baseline $500/month, scoped to complexity).

Path B

Knowledge transfer

Full documentation, codebase handover, and training sessions included in the transfer fee. Clean exit with no ongoing obligation. Additional training at $40/hour.

Legal

We sign a standard mutual NDA covering confidentiality of all business information, protection of client data, and your confidentiality regarding FusionSync as your invisible tech partner. By default the partnership is non-exclusive. Geography and global exclusivity is only triggered upon reaching the respective ownership milestones.
