Bookkeepers' Growth Network

Bookkeepers'
growth network

A referral network built for independent bookkeepers and small firms — turn the trust you've already earned with your clients into a second revenue line, without becoming a benefits broker yourself.

Referral-basedNo licensing required20% ongoing revenue share

How bookkeeping firms can finally win new clients — not just keep old ones.

  • Most firms grow by referral already — BGN gives that instinct a system, a commission structure, and a name.
  • You already see which clients are overpaying for benefits before anyone else does.
  • One warm introduction turns into ongoing revenue, not a one-time favor.
  • No new licenses, no new liability — ESG handles the benefits work.

ongoing commission on every employer client you refer to ESG — for as long as they stay a client.

Compare

One-click relationships

Referring clients used to mean chasing a broker for updates. With BGN, it's one click and a shared dashboard.

The Old Way

  • Cold intro to a broker you don't fully trust
  • No visibility once the referral is made
  • One-time favor, no ongoing upside

With BGN

  • Warm handoff to a partner you already know
  • Shared dashboard tracking every referral
  • Ongoing commission for the life of the client
