Pernix · Trusted Introduction Program
Pernix Trusted Introduction Program

Introduce Pernix to companies that need trusted software engineering support

Help us connect with CTOs, founders, and product leaders who need to accelerate delivery, modernize legacy systems, or adopt AI safely. We don't want generic referrals — we want thoughtful introductions where there's a real fit.

Why we created this program

The strongest client relationships start through trust

Many of our strongest client relationships have started through trust, reputation, and personal introductions. The Pernix Trusted Introduction Program is designed for current and past clients, partners, and friends who know companies that may benefit from disciplined, nearshore software engineering support.

Our positioning

We stabilize your code, accelerate delivery, and unlock AI — in that order.

Referral triggers

Signs a company may be a good fit

The best introductions are to companies that are currently dealing with one or more of these specific situations.

Delayed product roadmap
Legacy code nobody wants to touch
Overloaded engineering team
Difficulty hiring senior developers
Growing technical debt
Recently raised funding and need to move faster
Wants to add AI features but doesn't know how to do it safely
Low test coverage or release risk
Pressure to deliver more without increasing headcount
Considering nearshore engineering support
How the program works

Four simple steps. No pressure

1

Think of a specific person

Not a generic company list — a specific CTO, founder, or product leader.

2

Make a warm introduction

A short email or LinkedIn introduction is enough.

3

Pernix takes it from there

We handle the conversation professionally and respectfully — no pressure.

4

Receive a thank-you

Credit toward your invoice, referral bonus, or donation to a cause you choose.

Your reputation is on the line — we know that

We will never pressure your contact. If there isn't a fit, we will say so clearly and respectfully. Your reputation is more valuable to us than any single deal.

After the introduction

What happens once you connect us

To keep ambiguity low and trust high, here is exactly what we do after you make the introduction.

1
We acknowledge within 24 hours

Carlos personally replies to the introduction email, copying you, so you know it landed.

2
We offer a short Engineering Bottleneck Review

Usually a 20-minute call to understand whether there is a real fit. No slide deck. No pitch. Just a conversation about their actual engineering bottleneck.

3
If there's a fit, we propose a 14-Day Engineering Sprint

An assessment or a delivery milestone, depending on what they need. Risk-free entry point.

If there isn't a fit, we say so — kindly

No pursuit, no follow-up funnel, no marketing automation. We tell them honestly and thank you for the introduction. You stay protected.

4
You stay informed

We update you when the introduction has moved forward, paused, or ended. You always know where things stand.

Our thank-you

Three ways we say thank you

If your introduction becomes a new Pernix client, we'll thank you with one of the options below. Specific amounts depend on the size and nature of the engagement, and are shared privately with you in advance.

Option A · For current clients

Client Credit

A meaningful credit applied to your next Pernix invoice.

  • Credit scales with the size of the referred engagement
  • Applied to your next invoice after the first paid milestone
  • Visible on your billing statement

Exact amount shared privately once the referral is qualified. Designed to feel like a real thank-you, not a token.

Option B · For past clients / contacts

Referral Bonus

A direct bonus paid after the first paid milestone.

  • Bonus scales with the strategic value of the engagement
  • Paid via bank transfer or check
  • Custom arrangements for enterprise-level referrals

We discuss the exact bonus structure with you privately before any commitment.

Option C · For everyone

Donation Alternative

A donation to a cause or organization you choose.

  • Matched to the same value as Options A or B
  • You select the organization
  • You receive formal proof of donation

For clients and partners who prefer not to receive a direct financial benefit.

Qualified referrals

What counts as a qualified referral?

  • A direct introduction to a decision-maker
  • A company that fits Pernix's ideal customer profile
  • A company with an active or near-term software need
  • A prospect willing to have a conversation with Pernix

A generic name, company list, or cold contact does not count as a qualified referral.
