Know a Business That Needs IT? Earn Monthly by Referring Them to MicroSky

If you already advise small and mid-size businesses in the NYC metro area, you already hear the same complaint: email is a mess, the network is slow, nobody owns cybersecurity, and the last “IT guy” stopped answering.

You do not have to become their MSP. You can send them to someone who already is one, and get paid every month they stay.

That is MicroSky’s Referral Partner Program. It is free to join. There is no selling required on your side. MicroSky closes the deal. You earn a recurring monthly commission for as long as the referred client stays with MicroSky.

What the program actually is

Open the partner page and the structure is four steps:

  1. Sign up free. Create a referral partner account. MicroSky describes it as under two minutes, with no contracts and no commitments to start.
  2. Share your link. You get a unique referral link for your network.
  3. MicroSky closes. Discovery, demo, proposal, and close stay on MicroSky’s team. Your job is the warm introduction.
  4. Get paid monthly. Commissions go out monthly with no minimum threshold listed on the page.

Attribution is lifetime of the client relationship. As long as that business stays with MicroSky, the referral stays attributed to you. There is no published cap on how many clients you can refer.

Commission amounts depend on the service package the referred client signs. MicroSky walks partners through that structure during onboarding. We are not going to invent a percentage here. Ask during signup if you need the number before you refer anyone.

Who this is for (and who it is not)

You do not need to be a tech company. MicroSky’s own partner page names the people who already sit next to the decision: accountants and CPA firms, business consultants, insurance brokers, commercial real estate agents, financial advisors, marketing and PR agencies, office supply vendors, and VoIP or telecom resellers.

The common thread is trust. A Staten Island CPA who already does the books, a Brooklyn insurance broker who already writes the policy, a consultant who already sits in the quarterly review — those introductions land because the client already listens to you.

This is not a cold-call affiliate scheme. If you do not have a trusted relationship with business owners, the program will feel empty. If you do, the work is one introduction and a clean handoff.

Why MicroSky is a safe referral for your reputation

You are putting your name on the introduction. That only works if the MSP can carry the work.

MicroSky Managed Services has been in business 20+ years, serves the NYC metro as its primary area, and states 1,500+ businesses served on the partner page. The stack you are pointing people toward is managed IT, cybersecurity, and related services for firms roughly in the 1–500 employee range — the same size shops most local advisors already serve.

We write about the threats those firms actually hit — leftover print servers, session theft after MFA, BEC wires — on this blog. Recent examples: PaperCut on the internet and callback-before-wire for BEC. When you refer someone, you are not sending them a vague “IT help.” You are sending them an MSP that already talks about that work in public.

What you get beyond the check

The partner page lists:

  • Recurring commission while the client stays
  • No selling requirement after the intro
  • Partner dashboard to track referrals, conversions, and payments
  • Quarterly bonuses, co-marketing, and priority support for top referrers

There are no signup fees on the page. Cancel anytime. No contracts required to start.

What “warm introduction” means in practice

A warm introduction is not a forwarded brochure. It is you telling a client or colleague that MicroSky handles managed IT and cybersecurity in the NYC metro, that you are willing to connect them, and that you are not taking a cut of their first invoice in the room — the partner program pays you separately through MicroSky.

Keep the first message short. Name the problem they already said out loud. Offer the intro. Stop selling the stack. MicroSky’s sales team owns the next call.

If the prospect says no, leave it. Your reputation is worth more than one commission line.

Seven things to do this week if you want in

  1. Open the page. Read microskyms.com/referral-partner yourself before you send anyone.
  2. Sign up. Create the free partner account and save your unique link.
  3. Ask for the commission sheet on onboarding. Get the package-based structure in writing. Do not guess.
  4. Pick three names, not thirty. Clients or colleagues who already complained about IT in the last 90 days.
  5. Make a warm intro, not a blast. Email or call with context. “I work with MicroSky for managed IT in NYC — want an intro?” beats a mass mail.
  6. Hand off cleanly. Once MicroSky is on the thread, let them run discovery. Do not negotiate the stack for them.
  7. Track it in the dashboard. Confirm the referral landed under your link so lifetime attribution sticks.

How MicroSky helps partners

When you join, MicroSky’s team will:

  • Issue your referral link and dashboard access
  • Walk you through how commissions map to packages
  • Take the sales process after your introduction
  • Pay monthly on referred clients that stay active

Call MicroSky at (718) 672-2177, visit microskyms.com/referral-partner, or use Talk to Us First on that page if you want a human before you sign up.

Ask one question before you refer your first client: “What do I earn on a standard managed-IT package, and how is lifetime attribution recorded?” If the answer is clear, send the intro.
