Your association pays nothing and makes no commitment to generating any sales in joining LifeCycle 401k's Nonprofit Association Referral Partner Program. The Program is absolutely free.

LifeCycle 401k lets your nonprofit association raise money effortlessly
Earning Nonprofit Association Referral Partner income is easy.

Just have your members mention your association when ordering. Any member of your nonprofit association that adopts a LifeCycle 401k plan and names your association as the "How did you learn about us?" source in our order form earns your nonprofit association a referral commission and the member a rebate on LifeCycle 401k.
Depending on the commission-customer rebate program you choose (see above), your association earns $200 on every order.
Your association is not obligated to promote LifeCycle 401k in any way. You will likely want to somehow notify your membership of their discount and your association's benefit regarding LifeCycle 401k, but the level of effort your association puts out is up to you. So long as the member names your association as the "How did you learn about us?" source when ordering its LifeCycle 401k plan and your association is registered with us at the time as a Nonprofit Association Referral Partner, it gains the full commission and the member the full discount pursuant to the schedule your association adopted (see above).
Your association will never be asked to share with us any membership information, not contact names, phone numbers e-mail addresses or any other information (except within an actual LifeCycle 401k order request, of course). We let your association inform your members about the existence of LifeCycle 401k and LifeCycle 401k's informative web site, and let your members contact us if they would like more information.
It's free to be a Nonprofit Association Referral Partner. There are no fees involved, and your association keeps the full referral commission to put toward its good works.
The Nonprofit Association Referral Partner Program is open to all nonprofit associations (see below).

Notifying your membership
As we said above, we leave it up to you to contact your membership about LifeCycle 401k. Here are some suggestions that have worked well for other Nonprofit Association Referral Partners:

Place a link to the LifeCycle 401k web site in your web site. Contact us if you need LifeCycle 401k artwork.
Mention LifeCycle 401k within your association newsletter, e-mail blasts and other communications with your membership.
We DO NOT condone spamming, whether via e-mail or other delivery method. Please read the Nonprofit Association Referral Partner Agreement's section on spamming.

All nonprofit associations are eligible
All nonprofit associations are eligible to be LifeCycle 401k Nonprofit Association Referral Partners.

Your nonprofit association in no way needs to be affiliated with the finance or retirement benefits industries to join our Nonprofit Association Referral Partner Program.
If your membership includes working-age people and/or their employers, then our Program is right for you: You can raise money for your organization while helping your members acquire affordable, quality retirement benefits.
Your association does not need any 401k or retirement plan knowledge to be a LifeCycle 401k Nonprofit Association Referral Partner. Just direct your members to our web site; it contains all the explanations and expertise, and we're only a phone call or e-mail away if your members have any questions.
Small business-orientated nonprofit associations are particularly encouraged to join. While LifeCycle 401k is completely scalable for use by companies of any size, it is particularly suited to businesses that employ 250 or fewer people. These businesses have largely been ignored by the traditional retirement benefits industry, and they are the most in need of affordable, quality retirement benefit options. Your association not only can raise money for itself and its good works by informing your members about LifeCycle 401k, but it can also help its members have a more secure financial future.
