TradeEvolution - Global Trade Transformation Consultants

Network Opportunities

TradeEvolution provides a premiere network of trade banking and financial supply chain professionals and companies. Our objective is to be the first name that trade banks, supply chain providers, and their customers think of when there is a potential trade banking or financial supply chain consulting requirement.

We call ourselves a "network", because our members, senior independent consultants and respected companies, share in its benefits yet retain their independence. Our networked community facilitates synergies between its members and provides unrivaled service and expertise to our joint end customers. Our strength and differentiation is in our ability to build customized experienced teams for specific trade projects. This gives the end customer a superior result and creates new opportunities for our associates and partners who often could not do the work on an individual basis. But, that is just the beginning of the benefits to members.

The following provides more detail on the benefits our our network an the various ways to participate.

The benefits of belonging to the TradeEvolution Network are many. The main benefit is that we provide you a channel for obtaining interesting and leveraged work assignments.

Additional benefits:

You are listed in our database with your expertise and qualifications for project team selection, and in select cases may be listed on the 'People" page on our website.
You get the synergy of working with other talented professionals, yet stay independent.
You benefit from TradeEvolution's brand promotion, website, partners websites, search ads, conferences, publications, referral deals, etc.
Referral Program:
- Provides qualified leads and introductions at senior levels from well positioned referral partners and other members that may lead to work for you.
- Compensates members that provide qualified referrals resulting in work. Referral fees are tied to the overall project, and are paid whether or not the referring member works on the project.
Sales Commission Program:
- Sales Commissions are tied to the overall project value and is shared by members primarily responsible for winning the project, e.g., proposal writing, presentations, managing the sale, etc. This too is independent of whether or not the member works on the project.

Ways to Participate

There are two programs in the TradeEvolution Network; the Associate Program for independent consultants, and the Partner Program for companies.

To discuss participating in the TradeEvolution Network, please contact us and reference our Associate / Partnership Programs.

Associate Program

A network associate receives the benefits as described above, which provides the flexibility to utilize the network in the way that best suits their needs.

Have the TradeEvolution network market you. Once you have become an associate you will be in the member's database. When projects needing your expertise are being proposed by TradeEvolution, you will be approached regarding inclusion in the proposal. If included then you would sub-contract to TradeEvolution who holds the contract with the customer.
Leverage your contacts by referring. The people you know in the industry and the upcoming activities you know about, could be just the opening that is needed for TradeEvolution to land a new project.
Leverage your marketing efforts. If you are marketing yourself now, the rewards of your efforts are limited to the margins on your solo work. If you invested the same time to marketing a network team project, it would open the door for projects that were not feasible solo, plus the sales commission is tied to the entire project leveraging your efforts.

Partner Program

A network partner also receives the benefits as described above, providing the flexibility to utilize the network in the way that best suits its needs.

Have the TradeEvolution network market you. Once you have become a partner:
- You, and your designated employees, will be listed in the database and the TradeEvolution brand promotion and the sales work of other members will be working for you.
- Your company will be listed on the partner page of the website with your logo, company overview text and website link.
- Qualifying individual employees of the partner, who are available to sub-contract, can be listed on the people page, with references and hyperlink to your company.
Referral deals. Reciprocal referral agreements are the norm.
Leverage your marketing efforts and network resources. Partners can leverage the network in two ways:
- First, is to sell work under the TradeEvolution brand with teams composed of network members, including their own staff.
- The second approach is for the partner to sub-contract network members from TradeEvolution for participation on project they have sold under their own brand.
