Partner Add-Ons | Thincture

Why add-ons exist and when we introduce them

Once outbound is running and meetings are converting, patterns emerge. Some clients convert warm introductions at a high rate. Others do not , not because the leads are wrong, but because their sales process has gaps that lose deals after the meeting is booked.

We see this across multiple clients simultaneously. That visibility gives us a clearer picture of what is working and what is not than most external consultants ever get.

Add-ons are conversations we initiate when we see something that could be improved. Not upsells we push. Observations we share and solutions we can implement if the client wants them.

Only for existing partners We do not offer these to companies who are not already in an outbound partnership with us. The context we build over months of working together is what makes them valuable.

Introduced when relevant, not on a schedule We raise an add-on when we see a specific gap or opportunity. Not at a fixed point in the contract. Not as a default upsell conversation.

Priced separately from commission Add-ons are fixed-fee engagements. They do not change the commission structure on outbound. Both run in parallel without confusion about what belongs to which.

Available add-ons

Three extensions to the partnership

Each one addresses a specific gap that shows up naturally in outbound partnerships after the first few months.

AI-Native Process Automations

Operational efficiency

We run our outbound on AI infrastructure. The same capability can be extended across your entire operation , not just sales, but candidate targeting, internal workflows, consultant productivity, and anywhere your team is spending time on tasks that AI can handle faster and more consistently.

Candidate targeting agents that surface the right profiles from your database before a search even starts

AI-powered job matching that ranks candidates against live mandates and flags the strongest fits automatically

Candidate communication sequences triggered by pipeline status changes without manual intervention

Employer relationship workflows that maintain contact between placements so clients do not go cold

Internal reporting agents that surface pipeline health, conversion rates, and placement velocity to your team automatically

Interview scheduling, confirmation, and follow-up sequences that eliminate administrative back-and-forth

Why it connects: Your consultants' most valuable time is spent on relationships and judgment calls , not scheduling, updating records, or searching databases manually. AI agents take the repetitive work off their plate so they can focus on what actually closes placements. We build these on the same infrastructure that runs your outbound, so integration is fast and the methodology is already proven inside your business.

CRM Build and Pipeline Setup

Infrastructure

Attribution disputes are the primary commercial risk in a commission-only model. If your pipeline tracking is on spreadsheets or an unconfigured CRM, the chain of evidence from outbound introduction to closed deal can break down. We build and configure the infrastructure that protects both sides.

CRM selection and configuration matched to the size and workflow of your team

Pipeline stages mapped to your actual sales process from introduction to placement

Attribution tracking built in from day one so every introduction is logged to its source

Team onboarding so your consultants actually use the system rather than reverting to spreadsheets

Why it connects: Clean attribution protects your commission and ours. A well-configured CRM also gives your consultants better visibility into their pipeline, which directly improves conversion rates from the meetings we book.

Sales Process Consulting

Conversion improvement

We book the meetings. Your consultants run them. If the conversion rate from meeting to signed client is lower than it should be, the problem is almost never the quality of the leads. It is what happens in and after the meeting. We identify the gaps and build the process that closes them.

Review of how your consultants currently run discovery meetings with new employer clients

Identification of the specific points in the sales conversation where deals are lost

A structured meeting framework tailored to how specialist recruitment clients make decisions

Follow-up sequence and objection handling playbook for the post-meeting phase

Why it connects: We see conversion patterns across multiple clients simultaneously. A recruiter running meetings in isolation cannot see what we see. That cross-client visibility is what makes our consulting genuinely different from a generic sales trainer who has never worked inside a recruitment firm.

Pricing model

Fixed fee. Separate from commission. No surprises.

Add-ons are scoped and priced individually based on the size and complexity of the engagement. We agree the scope and fee before any work starts. Commission on outbound continues unchanged alongside the add-on engagement.

Scoped per engagement

Every add-on is different. We assess what is needed, define the scope, and agree a fixed fee before starting. No open-ended billing.

Commission unchanged

Add-on fees do not affect the commission structure on outbound placements. Both run in parallel under the same partnership contract.

Introduced by us, not sold

We raise add-ons when we see a specific gap worth addressing. You are never pitched a service you do not need.
