Expert Web Developer Needed for Referral Management Platform

Core Concept:

Referral.net will act as a centralized hub where any business owner—plumbers, electricians, realtors, mortgage brokers, loan consultants, contractors, etc.—can:
• Create a profile describing the services they offer
• List their commission/compensation structure for referral partners
• Send and receive referrals
• Track the status of referrals in real time
• Communicate through built-in reminders and notifications

⸻

Example Use Case:

Let’s say a business owner offers business loans up to $75,000.

On their profile, they can specify:
• Fees: They charge the client 15% upon loan approval
• Referral Commission: Referral partners earn 5% out of that 15% for any converted referral
• Net Earnings: The business keeps the remaining 10% after paying the partner

Referral partners can submit leads directly through the app, send follow-up reminders, and track the status instantly.

The business owner receives in-app notifications whenever a new referral is added or a reminder is sent.
