## Key pages
- [Home](https://van.network/): Van.Network designs, documents and tracks referral partnerships for trades and local professionals across Metro Vancouver, so more of your work arrives by introduction and every arrangement is on paper and disclosed.
- [Services](https://van.network/services/): Most owners need two or three of these five services, not all of them. Start with the gap that costs you the most: no plan, nothing written down, or no way to tell which partner sent which job.
- [Areas](https://van.network/areas/): Van.Network works with trades and local professionals in all 21 municipalities of Metro Vancouver, plus Electoral Area A and Tsawwassen First Nation. Referral networks follow geography, so we plan partners around the crossings your crews will actually make.
- [About](https://van.network/about/): Van.Network is a Vancouver-based marketing and business consulting service that helps Metro Vancouver trades and professionals build referral partnerships. Ali Sedighi, MBA, leads it, and it belongs to the Sedighi.ca and SAZ.ca group.
- [Results](https://van.network/results/): We don't have published referral-program results yet, so we won't invent any. What we can show are named results from our HVAC work, and the habits behind them that carry over to partnerships.
- [Pricing](https://van.network/pricing/): Referral work runs inside Trades.Agency plans, from $1,999 a month without a commitment or $1,499 a month when billed for the year, before 5% GST. There's no long-term contract, and eligible trades businesses get a free 30-minute first consultation.
- [FAQ](https://van.network/faq/): The questions owners ask before starting referral work with us, answered plainly: price, contracts, timelines, disclosure, links, ownership and reporting.
- [Contact](https://van.network/contact/): Call, text or email (604) 632-4959 or Ali@Sedighi.ca. Tell us who sends you work today and where your crews travel, and we'll reply with an honest view of whether referrals can carry more of your business.

## Services
- [Partner outreach](https://van.network/services/partner-outreach/): Good partners are found one at a time. We build a short list of complementary businesses your crews can realistically serve alongside, and give you a respectful way to start each conversation.
- [Program design](https://van.network/services/partner-program-design/): A referral program is a short written plan: who should send you work, what you give back, and the standard every referred customer receives. We build it from your own job records, not from a template.
- [Referral terms](https://van.network/services/referral-agreements/): If anything changes hands between you and a partner, write it down and tell the customer. We draft plain-language referral terms and a disclosure line for your lawyer to review before anyone signs.
- [Landing pages](https://van.network/services/referral-landing-pages/): When a partner sends someone to you, the page they land on should pick up the conversation where the partner left off. We write pages per partner or partner type, with any arrangement disclosed in plain words.
- [Referral tracking](https://van.network/services/referral-tracking/): Give every partner a way to send people to you that can be counted, then tag the jobs. After one quarter you'll know which relationships pay and which only feel like they do.

## Coverage

## Guides and articles
- [Guides](https://van.network/guides/): Three practical guides for owners who want more work by introduction: how to value a partner, how to put terms in writing with proper disclosure, and how to keep partner links on the right side of Google's rules.
- [Partner links](https://van.network/guides/partner-links-and-google/): Don't trade website links with referral partners to improve rankings. Google's spam policies treat link exchanges and links bought or traded for ranking as link spam. Link to a partner only when it genuinely helps a customer, and send referred customers to you through tracking numbers and referral pages instead.
- [Partner value](https://van.network/guides/referral-partner-value/): A partner's value comes down to four numbers: referred enquiries a year, close rate, average job value and gross margin. Multiply them, compare the result with what paid enquiries cost, and you'll know how much time and money the relationship deserves.
- [Referral terms](https://van.network/guides/referral-terms-in-writing/): A one-page referral agreement settles who refers what, how fast each side responds, what changes hands and how the customer is told. Write it in plain language, disclose any connection prominently, keep reviews and links out of it, and have a lawyer review it.
