Point people to any page, through your own channels.
04

Referrals are tagged to your code, and you're paid 15% on what they invest.
What you earn
A flat 15% on what your referrals invest.
Base Camp
15% of the monthly membership, for the first 12 months.
The Summit
15% of the intensive, one time.
Readiness Assessment
Free — pays nothing, but the credit sticks (see below).
Compass Sessions
Free — pays nothing, but the credit sticks (see below).
Send someone to a free product and they cost nothing — but if they upgrade within 60 days, you still get the credit.
Commissions are paid on real, completed payments, after the refund window.
Who it’s for
Coaches, consultants, and connectors with an audience of senior leaders — people who are already trusted to point others toward what’s worth their time.
The arrangement
We build and maintain the platform; you do what you do best — knowing your people and pointing them well. The lion’s share of what you generate is yours.

The Certified Guide path.
Interested in more than referring? Our Certified Guide path (60%) is for those who complete our certification and run their own Base Camp and Summit under The Next Mountain banner. It’s by application, not a signup.
