PROGRAMME PURPOSE
Why the AIDEN Referral Network exists
The proposed programme gives trusted contacts a structured, transparent way to introduce businesses that may benefit from research-driven consulting — with clear roles for everyone involved.
01
Connect businesses with help
Help business owners facing growth, operational or market challenges reach AIDEN Research for a structured assessment of their problem.
02
Recognise referrers fairly
Offer a proposed referral fee on successful, paid engagements under transparent terms — with no guaranteed earnings and clear payment conditions.
03
Keep the process accountable
Define who does what at every stage, so referrers, AIDEN Research and business clients share clear expectations and honest communication.
Anyone with a genuine professional or personal connection to a business owner can apply to become a referrer—consultants, accountants, freelancers, mentors, alumni and existing clients. Participation is subject to registration review, and referrals are accepted only with the business client's knowledge and consent. Referral fees are never guaranteed and apply only under the programme terms.

01
Questionnaire. The business describes its current challenge, goals, constraints and available data so our team understands the problem before any engagement is discussed.
02
Problem & Solutions Snapshot. After reviewing the responses, AIDEN Research may prepare a concise snapshot summarising the problem as understood and possible research-led approaches. It is an initial assessment, not a guarantee of outcomes.
03
Working Plan. If the business chooses to proceed, a working plan outlines proposed scope, stages, responsibilities and timelines, subject to mutual agreement before any work begins.
Questions? Email info.aidenresearch@gmail.com or call +91 99169 61245.
For prospective business clients
The Business Problem Questionnaire
The questionnaire is separate from referrer registration. It is completed by the referred business, not the referrer, and is shared directly by AIDEN Research once an introduction has been reviewed. No public link is published on this page.
REFERRAL FAQ
Common questions
Still unsure? Email info.aidenresearch@gmail.com or call +91 99169 61245.
Who can join the AIDEN Referral Network?
Professionals, consultants, advisors and other individuals with genuine business connections may register. Each application is reviewed before a referrer is accepted into the programme.
How much is the referral fee?
The proposed fee is 5–10% of the value of the paid engagement, agreed in writing per referral. Illustrative example only: a ₹30,000 engagement at 5% would give a ₹1,500 referral fee.
When is a referral fee paid?
Only after the referred business signs an engagement and AIDEN Research receives payment from that client. Earnings are not guaranteed, and referrals that don't become paid work don't earn a fee.
How are referrals tracked and managed?
Each referral is logged, given a status and updated at every stage, from introduction to the Business Problem Questionnaire, Snapshot, Working Plan, engagement and payment.
Does the referrer handle the client work?
No. The referrer makes the introduction with the business's consent. AIDEN Research handles the diagnosis, proposal, delivery and client relationship.
