Agency Partner Programme · April 2026

A new revenue tier,
built on the client base
you already have.

Your clients are running measurement models that predate the current signal environment. PHM Engine gives you the compound signal layer that explains what their models cannot — and the commercial structure to charge for it.

This is not a reseller programme. It is a named billable layer above your existing delivery: signal-adjusted reports, preparation windows, and a defensible causation read every time the CFO asks why a number moved.

01The misdiagnosis problem · Why your clients need what you can uniquely provide

Two diagnoses.
One costs €1.41M more
than the other.

The standard model reads channels. PHM reads the signal environment those channels are operating inside. When the macro signal moves, the standard model produces the wrong diagnosis — and the wrong response. The agency that holds the signal read gets paid for the difference.

Standard model diagnosis
CPL +34%. Creative fatigue.

Every channel underperforming simultaneously. No change in channel mix. The model has one explanation available: creative fatigue. Recommendation: refresh the creative. Budget under review: €1.41M.

The refresh launches. CPL continues rising. The diagnosis was wrong. The signal environment was the cause — and the agency had no framework to name it.

PHM compound diagnosis
DXY 97.9. Structural demand compression.

DXY at 98.6 is compressing purchasing power in UAE (−18%), South Africa (−24%), and Brazil (−28%) simultaneously. When purchasing power falls, brand preference erodes toward price — and CPL rises across every channel at once. This is not a media problem. It is a signal event.

The correct response is a Q2 promotional pivot, not a creative refresh. €1.41M stays in the P&L. The agency holding the signal read negotiates from a different position.

Case 02 · UK FMCG · CMO function
The agency that holds the signal read negotiates. The one that does not complies.

Retailers — Tesco, Carrefour, Rewe — are passing the same purchasing power compression upstream as promotional demands. Compliance without the signal read adds €1.41M in avoidable waste. PHM makes the negotiation possible by showing the retailer the same signal data it is responding to.

The CRM reads normal. The pipeline has frozen.

38% of pipeline sits in manufacturing CFOs simultaneously navigating compound COGS stress. Buying intent has frozen. CRM shows 3.2× coverage at 89% confidence. PHM-adjusted confidence: 54%. $2.14M frozen before it appears in velocity data. The preparation window is six weeks — to reposition before re-engagement starts at the wrong price point.

$2.14M Frozen pipeline · 6-week repositioning window

Your clients are getting the wrong diagnosis. PHM Engine gives you the right one — and the commercial model to charge for the difference.

"

Every measurement model built before 28 February 2026 is running on pre-Hormuz assumptions. The signal environment has moved. The models have not. The agency that brings the update wins the retainer conversation.

02The agency revenue model · Three tiers, one client base

Three tiers.
One licence.
Built on the base you already have.

What PHM retains
The advisory layer
Discovery sessions and Geopolitical Exposure Reports are PHM-direct. The agency introduces — PHM fulfils and bills the end client.
Named attribution
"PHM Engine" must appear in every client-facing output. Non-negotiable. This is how the direct relationship develops over time.
IP and methodology
The compound model, corpus, and signal parameters remain PHM's. The licence covers output access, not the underlying methodology.
Geopolitical Exposure Reports
Billed PHM-direct to the end client. Agency introduces and earns a referral margin on every signed engagement.

ROI on the licence cost from a single engagement

Attach rate required on a 10-client base to cover the licence in Year 1
The licence cost is not a P&L question — it is a margin question. One signal-adjusted engagement per year makes the Partner Licence accretive before the Tier 2 retainer uplift is counted. The client base does not need to expand. The delivery it already pays for does.
Ready to scope the partnership

One session.
A commercial structure at the end.

No demos. No decks. A scoping conversation about your client base, your current ACV, and where the Tier 2 retainer uplift sits inside your delivery model. If the attach economics do not work, we say so in the session.
