Why should I pay Serious People?

Reasons to Invest in Us

The question on everybody's mind is “why would people pay the platform when they can take connections and leave the platform?”

We have numerous reasons:

• Honor System First

  • We believe in fostering a “neighborhood” vibe—one that relies on good faith and mutual respect. We will start with an honor system, but we are ready to adapt if we see consistent misuse.

• Convenience

  • The same way that people pay for Spotify instead of downloading free music. Serious AMM will be a one stop place where you can make all of the connections that you need. Paying a small amount of the cost of the deal will save you endless hours on outreach, finding connections, and vetting.

• Success Based

  • Many business development platforms charge to gain access to the network, unlock connections, list on the platform, reveal inbound leads, and countless other actions that are not guaranteed to generate you revenue. We do not want to nickel and dime you for actions that do not result in success. In this light, everything leading up to closing the deal is free. All that we ask is when we bring you a new pie on a silver platter, you cut us a small slice so we can win with you.

• Feature Enhancement

  • We will be constantly pouring resources back into the protocol to make everyones life easier. Our goal is to speed up development times and solve a key challenge our industry is facing. By reporting closed deals and honoring the success fee you are supporting yourself to have a better user experience and generate even more revenue for your business.

• Bilateral Reporting

  • To maintain integrity, both the Builder and the Service Provider submit what was actually paid upon closing a deal. This dual-reporting approach discourages underpaying and promotes honesty.

• Reputation & Rewards

  • We will implement a review system that rewards consistent, accurate recording. If you regularly record deals and uphold fair practices, you will get priority in our matchmaking process—more matches brings more opportunities.

• Built-In Incentives

  • Features like leaderboards or “hot streaks” motivate Service Providers to stay active and transparent. Service Providers who engage openly are recognized and stand out to Builders, winning them more business.

• Mutual Benefits

  • Service Providers ultimately want to grow their business, and paying for credible leads or referrals makes sense towards this end. When deals close successfully, paying a fee is a natural part of winning new business.

• Referral Alignment

  • Our referral mechanic aligns everyones incentives: paying for high-quality introductions benefits the entire ecosystem. You “pay to get paid,” creating a virtuous circle of trust and cooperation.

• Ongoing Customer Support

  • Our team periodically checks in to see which deals have closed and why. This helps us fine-tune the platform, address any issues quickly, and keep everyone honest.

• Accountability Measures

  • We will ask users to sign agreements outlining fair use and fee structures. Our strike system penalizes repeated dishonesty, ensuring the marketplace remains healthy and trustworthy.

• Community & Legal Backing

  • Beyond trust, we have a strong network (and legal resources) behind us. While we hope it never comes to that, the community and our enforcement capabilities deter bad actors from abusing the system.
