Make the introduction.
Share in what follows.

Your relationships can start the conversation. Merit brings the change management experience to help the client move forward.

You may know an executive planning a technology program, a leader preparing people for change, or a client who needs help turning a new system into results. Introduce them to Merit.

When your introduction turns into a closed deal, Merit pays you a percentage of the margin. The relationship can keep creating value for you as the work grows.

Beyond the first engagement

Follow-on work.
Continuing participation.

Merit’s margin sharing continues in perpetuity. When we sell follow-on work to a client you introduced, we continue to pay you a percentage of the margin.

The introduction starts the relationship. Your participation continues as we sell more work to that client.

could mean.

Merit typically pays the equivalent of $5–$10 per billable hour, per consultant. Use that range to explore monthly and annual partner compensation.

The program pays a percentage of margin. The hourly equivalent below is illustrative; actual compensation and terms vary.

Monthly estimate
$4,167 – $8,333
Average month · 50 ÷ 12 weeks
Annual estimate
$50,000 – $100,000
50 weeks at your weekly average

5 consultants × 40 billable hours/week × $5–$10/hour. Assumes the same average billable workload across 50 weeks.

How the estimate is calculated

Weekly range = active consultants × billable hours per consultant/week × $5 to $10. Monthly range = weekly range × 50 ÷ 12. Annual range = weekly range × 50. Displayed amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar.

Merit projects typically last 12+ months, and follow-on work often occurs. These estimates depend on actual billable work, including any follow-on work. Future work and earnings are not guaranteed; no billable work means no compensation in this illustration.
