Go-to-Market Partner Proposal
A master reference document defining how managing agents, accountants, and HOA professionals can partner with Bodycorp360 — as users, resellers, or both.
Executive Summary
Bodycorp360 is South Africa's all-in-one SaaS platform for body corporate and homeowners' association management — now with 30+ integrated modules covering every aspect of community scheme administration. As we take the product to market, our primary distribution strategy centres on leveraging the existing networks of managing agents, property accountants, and HOA consultants — professionals who already have established trust relationships with our target customers.
The platform now includes advanced capabilities that differentiate it significantly from any competitor: an AI Financial Insights suite (health scoring, arrears prediction, automated narrative reports), a Compliance Calendar with CSOS and AGM deadline tracking, a Trustee Resolution Register, an Insurance Claims tracker, Visitor Management with digital access codes, a Community Noticeboard, native Xero Accounting Integration (Pro & Enterprise), and Netcash Debit Order collections — all in one subscription.
Our Agency pricing (R999/mo base + per-residential-unit fee, from R15/unit down to R7/unit at volume) was designed with this audience in mind. Managing agents who subscribe to manage their own client portfolios are, by design, already acting as resellers — they deploy Bodycorp360 across multiple body corporates and absorb the cost into their management fees.
This document formalises three distinct partnership scenarios, defines the commission structure, and provides the framework for a scalable channel-led growth strategy.

Partnership Scenarios
There are three ways a professional partner can engage with Bodycorp360. These are not mutually exclusive.
Scenario A — Managing Agent as User Only
Managing agents with an established client portfolio looking to digitise their operations.
Who is this for?
A managing agent who manages 5–50 complexes and wants a single platform to run all their operations.
How it works
Subscribe to an Agency Plan (R999/mo base + per-residential-unit fee). Each complex in their portfolio is covered under their subscription.
What they earn / gain
Operational efficiency — automated invoicing, maintenance, meetings, and reporting across all their complexes from one dashboard.
Commission
None (they are the customer, not a referrer).
Scenario B — Managing Agent as Reseller (Referrals Only)
Accountants, HOA advisors, and industry consultants who want passive recurring income from their professional network.
Who is this for?
A managing agent, accountant, or HOA consultant who doesn't need to manage the complexes themselves but has strong industry relationships.
How it works
Register as a Reseller Partner. Receive a unique referral code and tracking link. Refer individual body corporates who sign up under their own direct subscription.
What they earn / gain
Recurring monthly commission (15–25%) on every referred complex that remains an active subscriber — for as long as they stay.
Commission
Paid monthly. Scales automatically as referred clients grow or upgrade plans.
Scenario C — Managing Agent as Both (Hybrid)
Growth-oriented managing agents who want to monetise their industry reach beyond their active management portfolio.
Who is this for?
A managing agent who actively manages some complexes AND refers others they don't directly manage.
How it works
Subscribe to an Agency Plan for their managed portfolio. Additionally, register as a Reseller Partner to refer body corporates outside their management scope.
What they earn / gain
Operational value from their Agency subscription PLUS recurring commission from every referred sign-up they don't directly manage.
Commission
Commission applies only to referred complexes with independent subscriptions, not complexes already on their Agency plan.
Commission & Tier Structure
Tiers are based on the total residential units across all referred clients. For agency clients, count all units in their managed portfolio. Tiers are reviewed monthly and upgrade or downgrade automatically.

Key Distinction: Agency Plan vs. Reseller Commission
Agency Plan (User)
- You subscribe and pay monthly for your portfolio
- All complexes you manage are under your account
- You use the platform to do your job more efficiently
- You are the customer — you do not earn commission on your own plan
- R999/mo base + R15/unit (Tier 1) down to R7/unit at 5,001+ units
Reseller Commission
- You refer complexes who sign up under their own subscription
- Those clients pay Bodycorp360 directly
- You earn 15–25% of what they pay, every month, recurring
- You do not need to manage those complexes yourself
- Commission compounds as you refer more clients

Why This Model Works in South Africa
Fragmented Market
South Africa has over 50,000 registered community schemes. The majority are still managed via spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups — the digital transformation opportunity is enormous.
Trust-Based Referrals
Body corporate trustees rely heavily on recommendations from their managing agents and accountants. A partner recommendation carries far more weight than any digital ad.
Recurring Revenue Alignment
SaaS subscriptions align perfectly with the managing agent's own recurring fee model. Both parties benefit from a long-term, stable client relationship.
Compliance as a Driver
CSOS regulation and the Sectional Titles Schemes Management Act create ongoing compliance burdens — driving demand for digital solutions with auditability built in.
Low Partner Barrier
Partners don't need technical skills. They refer with a link, track on a dashboard, and get paid monthly. The onboarding for referred clients is handled entirely by Bodycorp360.
Compounding Returns
Once a referred client is active, commission is earned indefinitely. A partner who refers 20 complexes in Year 1 continues to earn on all of them in Year 3 — with no additional effort.
