Why we built this

Small towns run on word of mouth.

We built Tillwork Studio to serve local businesses — the kind that don't have big marketing budgets and rely on community trust to grow. That same community trust is what helps us grow too.

When you refer a business to us, you're helping a neighbor get online. We think that deserves more than a handshake. So we built a referral program that actually pays — in free months of service, not gift cards or one-off discounts.

The longer you're a client, the more the rewards stack. Refer three businesses and earn a bonus month. Refer six and earn an entire year free.

Earn real value

Free months of service, not gift cards. Every referral compounds into tangible savings on your own bill.

Help your community

Local businesses with strong online presence bring more customers to your town. A rising tide lifts all boats.

No limits

There is no cap on monthly credit earnings. Refer as many businesses as you want. Every one that goes live earns you a free month.

Credits are locked in

Once you earn a credit or claim a milestone, it's yours. We honor earned rewards even if program terms change.

How it works

Three steps. That's it.

No forms to fill out in advance. No referral codes to track. Just send us a name and we take it from there.

01

You refer a business

Use the form below to tell us who to contact — their name, business, and best way to reach them. Or just make the introduction yourself and have them mention your name when they reach out.

02

We build their site

We reach out, build the mockup, and handle everything. You don't need to follow up or manage the process. We'll let you know when they're live.

03

You get a free month

Once your referred client pays their first monthly invoice, a free month is credited to your next billing cycle — automatically. No claims process required.

What you earn

Rewards that add up.

Every referral earns you a free month. Reach the milestones and the rewards get significantly bigger.

Each referral

1 free
month

Credited after your referred client's first paid invoice. No minimum tenure required.

Repeats for every successful referral. No cap.

3-referral milestone

+1 bonus
month

When 3 of your referrals each reach 3 consecutive paid invoices, you earn a bonus free month on top of the credits you've already received.

Requires: 3 active referrals × 3 paid invoices each, claimed while you're an active client.

6-referral milestone

1 full year
free

Refer six businesses that stick. Earn an entire year of your base plan at no charge. Once claimed, the year is locked in — it runs to completion no matter what.

Requires: 6 active referrals × 3 paid invoices each, claimed while you're an active client.

All milestone rewards apply to your base monthly plan. Add-on services are not covered by free months or milestone rewards. Once a milestone is claimed and confirmed, it's locked in — even if referred clients later cancel.

Program terms

The fine print. It's short.

We believe in keeping things clear. Here's exactly how the rules work.

What qualifies a referral

  • The referred business must be new to Tillwork Studio
  • They must not already be in an active sales conversation with us at the time of referral
  • They must sign a plan and pay their first monthly invoice
  • For milestone eligibility, they must have 3 consecutive paid invoices on record

How credits work

  • Credits are applied to your next billing cycle automatically
  • No forms or claims needed for the per-referral monthly credit
  • Milestone claims are submitted to hello@tillworkstudio.com
  • Credits have no cash value and cannot be transferred
  • Credits do not carry over if your plan is cancelled

What's covered

  • Free months apply to your base monthly plan (Starter, Growth, or Full Presence)
  • Add-ons and additional services are not covered by free months
  • Setup fees for new builds are not covered by referral credits

Program changes

  • Tillwork Studio may update program terms with 30 days' written notice to active participants
  • Earned credits and active milestone progress are honored under the terms in effect when they were earned — always
  • Referrals made in bad faith or in violation of these terms may be disqualified
The referral program terms are incorporated into the Tillwork Studio Terms of Service. By participating in the referral program, you agree to those terms in full.
